Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are widely used in both aesthetic rejuvenation and the treatment of functional disorders, particularly in the periocular area. HA fillers have become a popular non-surgical alternative to address issues such as volume loss, wrinkles, and skin laxity. While effective and generally well-tolerated, complications can arise. Fortunately, over 90% of adverse events are mild and transient, including redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. However, in rare instances, more serious complications such as necrosis, vision loss, and cerebrovascular accidents can occur. Timely intervention with treatments like hyaluronidase, massage, and hyperbaric oxygen can often mitigate these complications. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the complications associated with HA fillers and discusses methods for their prevention and management.
