Abstract
Anaphylaxis is rare following the injection of hyaluronic acid fillers or human collagen for esthetic improvement of the face. We report a case occurring in a 63-year-old woman treated simultaneously with both. Symptoms included full-body urticaria and gastrointestinal symptoms that declined within a few hours, facial redness and swelling lasting a few days, and a nodule in the right tear trough that recurred over several months. Treatment with corticosteroids and antihistamine ultimately supported a complete recovery. Although rare, practitioners using injectables should be trained to manage anaphylactic events if they occur.
