Dr is illegally using silicone for lips and facial areas. Two months after injecting it in pt's lips, it lumped, pt's lips broke open, and half of one lip went numb. Pt went back to him for help and he said there was no way pt could prove he injected it, and refused to offer any type of help or advice. He said "don't bother to report me because no one would believe you". Pt wishes to remain annonymous and simply wants to stop him from mutilating anyone else without even taking responsibility.
