A gradual increasing interest in cosmetic procedures and the implementation of these practices by non-physicians have led to the development of various complications. Some of these complications are transient, while others require severe systemic treatments, and some may be life-threatening. These complications cause depression and isolated from society. In this article, three different reactions in the light of literature data due to the application of vitamins E, which are not fillers, have been presented and reactions of filler substances and treatment approaches are reviewed. Keywords: Filler reactions, review, vitamin E, scleredema, paraffinoma, lipogranuloma Günümüzde kozmetik işlemlere ilginin artması ve bu uygulamaların hekim olmayan kişiler tarafından yapılmaya başlanması çeşitli komplikasyonların gelişimine neden olmuştur. Bu komplikasyonların bazıları geçici olmasına karşın diğerleri ağır sistemik tedaviler gerektirmektedir. Bazı hastalarda hayatı tehdit eden önemli semptomlar gelişebilmektedir. Oluşan bu komplikasyonlar hastalarda depresyona ve toplumdan izolasyona neden olmaktadır. Bu makalede dolgu maddesi olmayan vitamin E içeren ampüllerin uygulanmasına bağlı gelişen üç farklı reaksiyon sunularak literatür verileri ışığında dolgu maddesi reaksiyonları ve tedavi yaklaşımları derlenmiştir.

“…Prior to injection, ice is applied to the area to assist with vasoconstriction. The skin is then recleansed with alcohol, as pretreatment icing has been suggested as a source of atypical mycobacterial infections in areas fi lled with HA's (Rodriguez et al 2013 ). The needle is then introduced into the skin and the gel is deposited in a subdermal plane.…”

Cutaneous Mycobacterium abscessus infection following hair transplant

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A 28-year-old man presented with a 10-day history of scalp nodules. He had undergone hair transplantation 2 months previously. Incision and drainage of one of the nodules yielded gelatinous material, which was sent for microscopy and culture, including low-temperature culture. After 2 weeks of incubation, culture of the nodule yielded acid- and alcohol-fast bacilli, which were identified as Mycobacterium abscessus, a rapidly growing, nontuberculous mycobacterium, which has been reported to cause cutaneous, soft tissue and respiratory infections following trauma, surgery or injection with nonsterile needles. A high index of suspicion is therefore needed in patients who present with cutaneous infections after cosmetic dermatological procedures, including hair transplantation.
