Dr. Chukwuemeka Onyewu helps with an NBC4 (Washington) News investigation into the life-threatening trend of improperly administered silicone treatments—usually into the buttocks. At least one woman is dead and others face life-long disfigurement after allowing silicone to be injected directly into their bodies by unlicensed and untrained practitioners.

Seen by many victims as the only Plastic Surgeon who can properly treat the aftermath, Dr. Onyewu explains the problem tonight at 11 on NBC4 in Washington DC.
