Abstract
Hyaluronic acid filler treatment is increasingly prevalent in the realm of plastic surgery, serving to correct a range of facial changes resulting from aging. Nevertheless, with its expanded application, an uptick in complications has been observed. This article reported a 30-year-old female patient who received chin hyaluronic acid filler treatment 5 years ago started experiencing atrophy and progressive deterioration at the injection site a year ago. Currently, she presents with a pronounced depression beneath the left corner of her mouth, along with changes in skin tone and scarring. The patient exhibited progressive hemifacial atrophy within the region that had been injected with hyaluronic acid. Progressive hemifacial atrophy at the injection site may be a novel adverse effect associated with the injection of fillers, and it is important to be vigilant about this possibility.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery serves as a forum of communication for all those involved in craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery and pediatric plastic surgery. Coverage ranges from practical aspects of craniofacial surgery to the basic science that underlies surgical practice. The journal publishes original articles, scientific reviews, editorials and invited commentary, abstracts and selected articles from international journals, and occasional international bibliographies in craniofacial surgery.
