Innovative Approach to Minimize Serious Complications in Cosmetic Dermal Filling

Pengfei Li1, Hui Lu2

Abstract

Cosmetic dermal filling represents a significant advance in aesthetic medicine, providing non-invasive treatments with immediate and durable outcomes. Despite the generally safe nature of dermal fillers and avoidable complications with proper technique and planning, they are still risky, with potential complications varying from mild and transient to severe and enduring. This study introduces innovative strategies designed to decrease the risk of serious complications, such as vascular occlusion. These include the use of ultrasound guidance, the application of ice, auxiliary gestures, effective withdrawal, etc. Throughout our research, we observed no severe complications like embolism, skin necrosis, or ocular issues. However, minor complications such as erythema, edema, and bruising were noted. It is important to recognize that while most severe complications can be avoided with meticulous technique and planning, the inherent risk of unexpected outcomes persists in any medical procedure. Our findings suggest that with these innovative strategies, the safety of cosmetic dermal filling can be significantly enhanced, thereby minimizing the risk of severe adverse effects.
