The Formation of Multiple MiliaInduced by Pneumatic Injector Therapy for Scar Remodeling

Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Investigative Dermatology - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

Pneumatic injector device was currently developed as a novel therapeutic option for facial scars. Through needle-less manner, injected particles such as hyaluronic acid immediately produce tissue volume augmentation and subsequently induce dermal microtrauma resulting in skin remodeling. There has been several transient adverse events has been reported such as pinpoint bleeding, transient erythema and edema and focal tenderness. Herein, we reported our two cases of milia formation after pneumatic injector therapy. Physicians should be aware of the possibility of secondary milia formation after pneumatic injector therapy for scar remodeling.
