Abstract

We report a case of scarring and nonscarring alopecia secondary to vascular occlusion with dermal filler. Vascular occlusion is a known complication of dermal filler injections, and alopecia as a clinical sequela has only rarely been reported. Our novel use of hydroxychloroquine, in addition to hyaluronidase and oral and topical steroids, may improve clinical outcomes associated with this complication.
