Recalcitrant Sterile Abscesses by Volux®: A New Therapeutic Approach

Skinmed. 2023 Mar 29;21(1):27-33. eCollection 2023.

Abstract

The number of patients developing sterile abscesses because of hyaluronic acid (HA) filler procedures has increased for unknown reasons. We described this adverse reaction after filling with Juvederm Volux®, the latest innovative product in the Vycross range of technology. We presented five patients with recalcitrant sterile abscesses after filling with Juvederm Volux® who did not respond to the traditional therapy but whose lesions were resolved with the "Munhoz-Cavallieri lavage protocol" developed and recently published by the present authors.
