Cutaneous Silicone Granuloma Treated with Oral Minocycline and Intralesional Injection of Triamcinolone Acetonide / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Liquid silicone which is used for cosmetic enhancement can potentially induce a granulomatous reaction of variable severity. Treatment of silicone granuloma is challenging and often uncorrectable. We describe a case of adverse granulomatous inflammation after the injection of silicone. This was improved with oral minocycline and intralesional injection of triamcinolone acetonide.
