ABSTRACT

With the increased demand for dermal filler injections, more complications and adverse events are reported. Vascular occlusion is one of the most serious complications. The need urges to adopt a powerful protocol to manage such cases. The private practice I am working for has six branches in the middle east. I tried to investigate if there were any vascular occlusion incidences through the last three years. Four cases without sufficient details were found. A protocol was adopted from a scientific reference to deal with similar cases properly. A re-audit was done after six months to test the efficiency of the suggested protocol.
