Abstract
Facial cosmetic procedures are increasingly requested, and dermal filler materials are widely used as a nonsurgical option of treatment. However, injectable fillers have been implicated in a series of local adverse reactions. Woman, 69, reported a painful nodule on her right nasolabial fold. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) was used to obtain a diagnosis. The test revealed the problem as a granulomatous foreign-body reaction caused by the perioral injection of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) dermal filler. FNAC could be a useful and minimally invasive method to confirm the diagnosis of adverse reactions caused by perioral cosmetic dermal fillers such as PMMA.
