In 2004 Dr. Casavantes did my face with the Bio. I had stage 4 wasting. and many cc's were needed. I was pleased with the outcome, and it has been good up until 2013. Bio was our only option. I am 33 years poz, and now I need this removed, and something to take its place. I havent made it this far to end up looking like the walking dead. My Bio has all migrated to my jowls, and I have open wounds inside my mouth because when I eat I constantly bite the inside of my cheeks. Infection has started.

I had this procedure carried out 8 years ago. I was given no warning of possible side effects and, at that time, there was little around to cause concern. Following a complicated extraction the filler on one side has become badly infected and is not responding to antibiotics. I have had 3 doses now including a dose administered iv. I am feeling desperate but am not sure where to go for help.

an offensive and patronizing perspective given by Dr. Casavantes. The company of origin is a web site, dead end. Retrieval of information on production on product is absent. I've had many severe infections and emergency surgery to prevent sepsis. Of all of the populations to target as guinea pigs, people with HIV/AIDS have live with enough suffering.

I too just within this past month have a swollen cheek I just spent Friday July 6th, 2012 At the hospital for ultra sound which was upgraded to a CT scan to find any infection and am currently contacting the Doctor who did the Bio Alcamid work about what to do now. Not at all what I expected about 5 years later. the CT SCAN Dept. Head said that infections for things like Bio-Alcamid can happen and show up YEARS LATER.

I had BIO-ALCAMID injectedin 2007. I asked the doctor for BOTOX but he recomended to me BIO-ALCAMID. At that time I did not know that I was suffering with immunity hepatitis. In 2011 I had my first infection which was extrcted by the same doctor. In 2012 the infection reocured and it was extracted again. He told me that it the capsul can not be removed permanentely and that with injections eventualy will dissapear. I do not know wat to do for the best. Can you help? I am very very worried.
