Abstract:
The practice of mesotherapy has gained significant popularity due to its convenience and ability top recisely deliver medications to targeted areas within the skin. However, despite its perceived safety, mesotherapy has been associated with various adverse effects, including granulomatous reactions triggered by certain ingredients present in the injected solutions. This case report highlights a woman in her 50s who developed multiple treatment-resistant cutaneous granulomas following mesotherapy treatment for skin rejuvenation. This case underscores the potential severity of adverse reactions associated with mesotherapy, even with ingredients traditionally considered safe. Furthermore, it emphasizes the challenges in diagnosing and managing such reactions, particularly in the absence of clear causative agents. As mesotherapy continues to gain popularity, clinicians must remain vigilant for the possibility of adverse reactions and consider alternative treatment modalities in cases of persistent or severe adverse events.
