Many men believe that after injecting this liquid, their penis will become bigger. However, there are people who have not seen happiness yet and hold grudges all their lives due to unforeseen complications.
Almost died because they wanted to be better than others
Case A rare incident recently occurred at the Emergency Department of Can Tho General Hospital, the victim was Mr. TTD (born in 1984). The hospital received the patient in a state of pain, difficulty breathing, and his buttocks and penis were swollen and red. The patient then entered the stage of severe respiratory failure.
According to the medical history of the provider, Mr. D. before working in the fields, had a lover in the same neighborhood and was preparing to get married. The same morning, Mr. D. and a friend bought “motor oil” from a street vendor and injected it into his penis and buttocks with the hope that his penis and buttocks would be as beautiful as their dreams. However, after the injection, he suffered from difficulty breathing and was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Doctors said that the “motor oil” that Mr. D. injected was actually liquid silicon. On the outside, it looks like cooking oil or lubricating oil used to lubricate engines. This substance and its mixtures mixed with other substances such as vegetable oils are used by the cosmetic industry to fill in depressions under the skin and increase tissue volume as desired. Thanks to its inertness, after being injected under the skin, silicon does not change but forms cysts and pockets in the tissue like implants, filling the skin tissue and creating the desired shape.
According to doctors, silicon injected in too large a dose can seep into fatty tissue and blood vessels, causing lung congestion and respiratory failure. In addition, if the patient has a poor constitution, heart disease, or low blood pressure, leading to serious complications that cannot be resuscitated, the patient dies an hour later.

Mr. D.’s case is not the only case recorded so far from the Department of Andrology at Binh Dan Hospital .Ho Chi Minh City is also a place that regularly receives cases of complications due to foolishly injecting penis enlargement substances.
Mr. HVT (27 years old Ca Mau) recounted more than two months ago in a On a fishing trip, he met many friends who shared the secret to enlarging his penis. “Because of my low self-esteem, I heard what they said was safe, but my “little guy” turned out as beautiful as I wanted. I was so greedy that I gave them 300,000 VND to buy “motor oil”. Then they injected this oil into his penis to increase its size” – Mr. T. said.
After a week of pumping, Mr. T. said that at first it also had the effect of seeing “little guy”. Bigger than before, all activities are normal. However, in the second week, his joy was interrupted when his “little guy” kept growing unexpectedly, often causing painful erections and having to use antibiotics. “At that time, I no longer enjoyed doing anything, going to the bathroom had great difficulty, my skin turned bruised and my penis had a foul smell. I was so scared that I went to get examined at Ca Mau Hospital and the doctors advised me to go to Ho Chi Minh City for surgery soon or my life would be affected” – Mr. T. said.
After the examination, the doctor told me the amount of The silicone injected had clumped into lumps under the skin of the penis, causing Mr. T.’s “little guy” to become rough and deformed. Because the silicon has spread to other organs, affecting the nerves, it is necessary to scrape out all the silicon first. After that, the patient must have surgery at least twice to reconstruct his penis.
Silicone must be banned as a drug
According to Dr. Mai Ba Tien Dung – Department of Andrology at Binh Dan Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, complications from silicon are extremely diverse and unpredictable. Women crave beautiful busts, men crave big “precious” penises. Leading to the pursuit of silicone injections helps those who specialize in taking advantage of the psychology of people in need to make profits despite the danger.
Dr. Dung analyzes when the penis has complications due to silicone injections if surgery is not performed. Timely surgery is very life-threatening. Liquid silicone over time will flow into the skin tissue, causing edema and necrosis. Liquid silicone located under the skin not only creates serious cosmetic injuries but also causes real sensitivity reactions that greatly affect the skin health of the patient. When liquid silicon is injected into the penis, it will gradually deteriorate in many ways depending on the reaction of each person’s body. Or more accurately, depending on the individual’s condition, the type of silicon used will be determined according to the number of injections and the injection technique, which can be fast or slow, severe or mild. Therefore, injecting silicone of unknown origin is too risky, not to mention arbitrarily injecting it without professional management and control.
According to Dr. Dung, Department of Andrology, Binh Dan Hospital, he has encountered many people. In case the penis is damaged and necrotic… Most patients have tissue curettage surgery to cut the entire skin to remove all the silicon. After three months, the patient will have the penis shaped by taking thigh or scrotal skin and applying it. During this time, the patient will have difficulty urinating and cannot function as usual.
Do not use floating silicone
According to Dr. Phan Duc Minh – Ho Chi Minh City Cosmetic Surgery Association, there are two types of silicone used in cosmetic surgery as filler materials: liquid silicone and flexible silicone. Liquid silicone designed for medical use is a type of silicone with a viscosity 350 times higher than the viscosity of water, similar to motor oil. The higher the viscosity of silicone, the less it is absorbed, the less deformed it is, and the less it causes body reactions. This type has the physical and chemical properties of silicon in general but has the advantage of being easy to use. The types of liquid silicone floating on the market are often liquid yellow and look like motor oil, so gentlemen often call it “motor oil” to help with beauty. This type can be harmful to health.
< p>The Department of Andrology at Binh Dan Hospital still receives 10 to 15 patients each year who fall into this situation. Fortunately, there were no deaths, but it was very costly in terms of costs and health.
