Lab tests help assess inflammation and general health. With that information the stage of the disease and the plan are defined: medical management, localized removal or both. Removing 100% of the material is not always possible, so an accurate diagnosis is the basis of safe treatment.<\/p><ul class=\"chips\"><li>Medical history<\/li><li>MRI<\/li><li>Plan by stage<\/li><\/ul><\/div><nav class=\"toc\"><b>In this article<\/b><ol><li><a href=\"#s1\">Why diagnosis is the first step<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#s2\">1.

In the experience of the <a href=\"https:\/\/scielo.isciii.es\/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&amp;pid=S0376-78922013000300009\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hospital General de M\u00e9xico<\/a>, care always begins by locating the material and understanding the patient&#8217;s condition before any surgery. Without that map, removal can be incomplete or carry more risk.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s2\">1. Medical history<\/h2><p>The consultation starts with specific questions that guide the diagnosis:<\/p><ul><li>Which substance was applied, if known (liquid silicone, oil, paraffin, polyacrylamide or other).<\/li><li>When and where it was applied, how many sessions and who applied it.<\/li><li>What symptoms there are, since when and whether they are increasing.<\/li><li>Previous treatments, illnesses and current medications.<\/li><\/ul><p>Many people do not know exactly what was injected. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.mx\/cofepris\/articulos\/sustancias-modelantes-utilizadas-en-procedimientos-esteticos-son-de-alto-riesgo-a-la-salud-cofepris\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COFEPRIS<\/a> warns that these substances are often applied in unauthorized places, so the history is always complemented with tests.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s3\">2. Physical examination<\/h2><p>The doctor checks the injected area and nearby areas: swelling, hardening, nodules, color changes, ulcers or migration of the material. Other parts of the body are also examined, because the reaction can spread.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s4\">3. MRI<\/h2><p>This is the key test. It shows where the material is, how much there is, how deep it goes and whether it has migrated, as well as how inflamed the neighboring tissue is.
