Popis: Introduction: One of the most feared complications when using facial fillers is the potential risk of intravascular injection. Therefore, all applicators must be aware of the treatment algorithm in the case of ischemia. Objective: This article reports a case of lip ischemia after filling with hyaluronic acid, completely reversed only after the use of warm compresses. Methods: Use of warm compresses in case of lip ischemia. Results: Complete reversibility of ischemia. Conclusions: Despite not being the only measure to be adopted in an ischemia condition after hyaluronic acid filling, this case demonstrates the value of using warm compresses, which in the present report was sufficient to revert the condition.
