Management of AQUAfilling® Filler Application Complications

In recent years, the use of AQUAfilling® filler has become widespread, particularly in breast and gluteal augmentation, which are among the most common aesthetic surgical procedures. Although AQUAfilling® filler is claimed to be biocompatible with human tissue, the number of complications associated with it continues to increase. The invasion of AQUAfilling® filler into the parenchyma, as well as the toxicity and oncogenicity of its main component, polyacrylamide, remain uncertain and require further investigation. In this study, we present three female patients with a history of AQUAfilling® filler injection for breast and gluteal augmentation who experienced long-term major complications. We aim to emphasize the significance of long-term complications of AQUAfilling® filler material and contribute to the reconstruction options in managing these complications.

Abstract

In recent years, the use of AQUAfilling® filler has become widespread, particularly in breast and gluteal augmentation, which are among the most common aesthetic surgical procedures. Although AQUAfilling® filler is claimed to be biocompatible with human tissue, the number of complications associated with it continues to increase. The invasion of AQUAfilling® filler into the parenchyma, as well as the toxicity and oncogenicity of its main component, polyacrylamide, remain uncertain and require further investigation. In this study, we present three female patients with a history of AQUAfilling® filler injection for breast and gluteal augmentation who experienced long-term major complications. We aim to emphasize the significance of long-term complications of AQUAfilling® filler material and contribute to the reconstruction options in managing these complications.
