Despite What We Already Know, Women Continue To Get Butt Injections
It’s strange that you would need to tell anyone in 2018, that injecting foreign substances into your body may not be a good idea. But if you won’t listen to doctors, then learn from K Michelle who is sharing the agony of trying to get butt injections removed from her body. Her experience, these injections were slowly killing her – if not killing her, taking her in the direction of being handicapped. She had complained of leg pains and swelling for a long time. Doctor’s believed that a surgery to have the materials (whatever they may be) removed were too dangerous, and she could not find a doctor that would perform the surgery. After finally finding a surgeon who agreed, she went through the removal process in January. Since then, she has been trying to recover but it has been a disturbing journey.
The types of shots that K Michelle had injected are the illegal shots that many women, especially in the music industry, have had. Even Cardi B has admitted that she went to the basement of a woman’s house in New York to have her injections done. She said it was a traumatic experience, and later learned that woman was arrested for killing a woman due to complications from the same injections.

At 34 years old K Michelle revealed that she could barely walk post surgery; she was simultaneously on a 26 city tour and was using steroids to walk and keep down an infection. 4 times after stage performances, she was rushed to the emergency room. She goes on to say:
“I later found out the silicone had spread and I would be rushed back into surgery. Last Wednesday, I entered surgery barely functioning with my legs and an infection. The surgery to remove all of this from me lasted a long 6 hours….
…I have the most skilled and amazing reconstructive surgeon in Beverly Hills and I’m blessed to be here. It hurts my heart to know there are girls out here who can’t afford to have the best and are just sitting around in pain and infection. I thought I was strong but this changed my life.”
Even after the 2nd surgery, she had to be rushed to the ER again for 2 blood transfusion. Now the 34 year old songstress is in therapy so that she can walk and heal.
We all know how risky surgeries can be performed by a certified doctor, but the thought that women are going into random’s strangers homes and basements to get foreign substances injected into their bodies is still troubling. Hopefully, people will learn from her frightening experience, and we wish her well. Visit @kmichellemusic on Instagram to read her entire post.
