In 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued asafety communicationwarning consumers that “injectable silicone used for body contouring is not FDA-approved and can cause serious side effects that may be permanent or may even lead to death.”

“Side effects can include ongoing pain and serious injuries, such as scarring, tissue death, and permanent disfigurement; if the silicone migrates beyond the injection site, it could cause an embolism (blockage of a blood vessel), stroke, infections and death. Serious complications may occur right away or could develop weeks, months, or years later,” added the federal agency.

Later in the Instagram Live, Cardi also shared how she “automatically"knew she was pregnant againwhen she “woke up one morning and my mouth tasted like copper.”
