A warning has been issued for people getting cosmetic filler injections on the face, as new complications have emerged in a recent study.
Health experts have issued an alert regarding this matter. Individuals who undergo facial cosmetic filler injections need to be aware of the dangerous complications.
Those receiving such injections also face the risk of blood vessel blockage. This can cause skin damage or, in severe cases, lead to blindness.
Experts from the Brazilian University of São Paulo studied 100 cases of filler injections using ultrasound.
The new study revealed various complications resulting from cosmetic filler injections on the face, including skin damage, blindness, and stroke.
According to medical experts, it is essential to identify blood vessels through ultrasound before administering fillers.
In case of complications, ultrasound can help in treating the affected area accurately. Using ultrasound guidance instead of unguided injections allows for better results with less medication.
