Periocular mass lesions secondary to dermatologic fillers: report of 3 cases.

OBJECTIVE: To describe findings in patients who received dermal fillers and later developed peri-ocular mass lesions. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. PARTICIPANTS: Patients who presented with peri-ocular masses secondary to dermal filler use. METHODS: Retrospective chart review. RESULTS: Three patients with remote filler injection (hyaluronic acid and polyalkylimide), not volunteered on initial history, presented with peri-orbital swelling and/or inflammation that was suspicious in each case for more serious pathology. CONCLUSIONS: It is important for the injecting physician, the ophthalmologist, and the patient to recognize this complication to permit appropriate investigation and management.
