The hazards of hyaluronic acid injection

In the clinic, it is found that hyaluronic acid injection has the following three major types of risks:

Risk one Tyndall phenomenon

The first type of risk is the emergence of Tyndall phenomenon after the injection. That is, a light blue mark or bulge appears in the filler injection site, the reason is that more dermal fillers are injected in the thinner parts of the skin, and the level is shallow, in the light of the light, the original transparent injected material will show a light blue color change. The Tindal phenomenon is more likely to occur when injecting around the eyes, especially in the lower eyelids and tear trough areas.

Risk 2 Nodules and bulges

The appearance of bulges on the surface of the skin or nodules within the tissues is mainly caused by excessive injection of fillers. Another cause is vascular embolization of the skin, which leads to secondary infection due to degeneration and necrosis of the skin tissue. In the case of subcutaneous infection, most of them are caused by too much subcutaneous injection at one time, and the operation is not standardized or the local infection foci already existed before the injection.

Risk three vascular embolism

Vascular embolism is the most serious complication of hyaluronic acid injection, which may lead to more serious consequences. Due to the rich blood flow in the head and face and the developed collateral circulation, once it enters the blood vessel, there is great uncertainty about its direction of travel. Vascular embolism is categorized into arterial embolism and venous embolism. Arterial embolism is manifested by local whitening of the skin, followed by a florid appearance; venous embolism is manifested by a deepening of the local skin color or purple. In addition, blindness or visual field loss may result if the injected material flows retrogradely through the supraorbital and superior talar arteries into the branches of the ophthalmic arteries in the case of high injection doses, and the incidence of this risk is increasing yearly. Serious complications such as cerebral arterial embolism leading to hemiparesis or even death can follow after retrograde entry into the common carotid artery through the superficial temporal artery, and such incidents have also been reported occasionally. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be performed if available, and blindness can be referred to ophthalmology for specialized treatment. Once vascular embolism occurs, the injection should be stopped immediately, and hyaluronidase should be given immediately to dissolve and improve blood circulation and other symptomatic treatment.

Hyaluronic acid side effects

Taking ACMETEA orally as soon as possible will minimize the rejection reaction and side effects and help the skin to recover as soon as possible.

4, hyperpigmentation. Generally, hyperpigmentation may occur when the injection is too shallow or no attention is paid to sun protection.

5, infection. Infection is generally rare, may be due to the operation sterilization is not in place or improper postoperative care. Once an infection occurs, it is important to go to the hospital for follow-up in order to deal with it as soon as possible.
