Viet Duc Friendship Hospital has just received and treated a case of complete loss of vision in the left eye due to filler injection at an unsafe private spa. The victim was a 45-year-old man who came for treatment after being introduced to this beauty facility by an acquaintance.
According to the story, the patient has no habit of learning about aesthetics and is not fully consulted. When he heard reassuring "subcutaneous injection is very simple", he agreed to perform the procedure of Filler injection to remove his forehead wrinkles. However, after only a few injections, he felt pain in the forehead, his left eye faded quickly and lost his eyesight. The patient immediately asked to stop the injection and go to the emergency hospital.
Doctors at Viet Duc Friendship Hospital activated the interdisciplinary process for emergency emergency care. Through consultation with the Central Eye Hospital, the patient was diagnosed with left eye retina central artery blockage - a serious complication due to incorrect filler injection techniques. Despite being vaccinated with ecstasy and actively treated, the patient's vision only improved for a very short time and then declined. The ability to recover is almost gone, however, the eye lifting movement and eye aesthetics are still somewhat preserved.
Assoc. When the complications occur, the normal antidote only works with the soluble filler, the rest continues to cause complications. More dangerous, many people who have no expertise still believe that every type of filler is safe, and injected in every area on the face is harmless. However, the forehead, the bridge of the nose, the eyes around the eyes are sensitive areas, if the filler enters the blood vessels, it will cause obstruction, necrosis, infection, even blindness.
The above case is a harsh warning about unsafe beauty, especially when trusting "famous spa". Compulsory filler injection procedures must be performed by a doctor with in-depth expertise in facial pathology and injection techniques. People need to be alert, only choose facilities licensed by the Ministry of Health to avoid serious consequences, even unable to treat.
