Reaction to Cutaneous Filler Elleva Poly‐<scp>l</scp>‐Lactic Acid: Report of Two Cases
The global demand for aesthetic procedures has been steadily increasing, driving the development of new techniques and materials to meet this need. However, these procedures are not without risks, including the formation of subcutaneous nodules following injectable treatments. Histopathology plays a crucial role in identifying skin fillers based on their distinct morphological characteristics. In this article, we present two cases of subcutaneous nodules associated with the application of Elleva poly-l-lactic acid, providing a detailed histopathological analysis.
