Abstract:
132 women after facial contouring on terms from 2 weeks to 15 years after filler injection were examined by sonography (US). They had complaints of the edema, hypercorrection, asymmetry, discomfort and anxiety about the excess of the terms that filler had spent into the soft tissues. HA fillers were injected in 111 cases (84.1%), silicon agents - in 13 cases (9.8%), CaHA - in 6 (4.5%), PMMA - on 1 (0.8%) and one patient have had non-hyalouronic filler with unknown origin (0.8%). According to the US data, nasolacrimal and palpebromar fissures were the most common location of fillers or the echo signs of fibrotic changes in the projection of their injection - 54 patients, just like the lips region and nasolabial folds - 52 cases. The US of the skin and the soft tissues of the face and neck region prescribed to the patients in order to carry out the differential diagnosis of complaints' causes, to determine the treatment tactics and for planning cosmetic procedures.
