Abstract
Background:
Five patients presented to the Kenner Dermatology Clinic with granuloma formation after cosmetic augmentation with poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra). One patient had injections to the dorsum of the hands, and 4 patients had infraorbital skin augmentation. None were immunocompromised.
Results:
Three patients required surgical excision. One responded to saline dilution therapy, and one is awaiting surgical removal.
