Iatrogenic Glossopharyngeal Neuropathy in Aesthetic Practice: A Case Report.

Iatrogenic glossopharyngeal nerve injuries are commonly associated with procedures such as a tonsillectomy, carotid endarterectomy, and endotracheal intubation. We present a previously unreported complication of a thread lift procedure in the jowl region, causing damage to the glossopharyngeal nerve through compression. The glossopharyngeal nerve belongs to the bulbar group of the cranial nerves.

Acute isolated trigeminal neuropathy following calcium hydroxylapatite-based soft tissue filler injection: A case report.

Background: Soft tissue filler injections are frequently performed with a relatively low number of severe adverse events reported. While venous complications have been described, the majority of adverse events are generally associated with the arterial vascular system. Intra-arterial product application can present with pain, skin discoloration, and potential tissue loss and/or injection related visual compromise.
