Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are a very popular choice for patients wanting to undergo non-invasive facial rejuvenation. Its prevalence is predicted to continue to rise. We report a case of delayed angioedema and associated urticaria to hyaluronic acid dermal fillers post COVID-19 infection. To our knowledge, this is an unusual case of hypersensitivity reaction of eight-month latency. Although the aetiology warrants further research, the author suggests utilisation of a four-week time window between dermal filler injections and COVID-19 vaccination.

Impending skin necrosis resulting from inadvertent intravascular injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers can lead to tissue loss and significant scarring. In recent years, management trends have shifted from multimodal approaches to the sole use of high doses of hyaluronidase. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of the high-dose pulsed hyaluronidase management protocol in preventing skin necrosis and possible subsequent scarring. Read More
