Expert strategies for preventing and managing dermal filler complications
The demand for soft tissue filler injections has significantly increased in recent years. However, all dermal fillers come with risks, both in terms of the products themselves and their administration. The growing popularity of dermal fillers and the diverse range of clinicians administering them highlight the importance of prioritizing complication prevention strategies, alongside proper training and credentials. Edited by renowned dermatological pioneer, author, and researcher Neil S. Sadick, with co-editor Suleima Arruda, an internationally renowned board-certified dermatologist, Dermal Filler Complications: Prevention and Management addresses a critical gap in the literature.
This unique book is organized in three parts and eleven chapters. Part I discusses the epidemiology of complications, the importance of pre-injection planning, and the role of ancillary imaging in recognizing, preventing, and managing filler complications. Each chapter in Part II and Part III focuses on a specific dermal filler complication, covering sites of occurrence, relevant anatomy, treatment algorithms, prevention, management, and real patient cases. Part II discusses early onset complications, while Part III is dedicated to delayed onset complications.
