Ocular adverse effects after facial cosmetic procedures: a review of case reports

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology
Lucas H RicciCaroline A Ferraz

Abstract

To review indexed literature concerning adverse ocular effects of the most common aesthetic facial procedures (light-emitting therapy, dermal fillers injection, and botulinum toxin). Literature search using three online databases - PubMed, SciELO, and Capes - selecting case reports, series of cases and reviews, with no language restriction, published in a period of the last twenty years (1995-2015). After reviewing 48 case reports and most recent reviews, the authors found the most common ocular adverse effects of dermal fillers were related to vascular occlusion; light-emitting therapy was associated with pigmented tissue damage leading to anterior uveitis and iris atrophy, and ptosis presented the higher relative risk associated with botulinum toxin. Even though ocular adverse effects are not very frequent, some of them can lead to permanent ocular dysfunction and visual impairment. Professionals involved in cosmetic procedures should be aware of the risks.
