ABSTRACT
To report the late complications associated with permanent filler injections into the malar area for rejuvenation. A retrospective case series of three patients who presented with lower eyelid swelling several years following injection of polyalkylimide [Bio-Alcamid] into the malar area. All patients presented with lower eyelid swelling which developed as a result of spontaneous migration of filler to the lower eyelid. Iatrogenic migration of the filler from the lower eyelid following a trial to remove resulted in an abscess formation which further complicated the removal. Lower eyelid swelling may be one of the late complications associated with the permanent fillers into the malar area. An attempt at removal of filler by aspiration or bimanual expression may result in late migration of the product and the development of eyelid swelling
