The use of sutures is a common practice in plastic surgical procedures. The potential risk of developing an allergic reaction to suture materials exists. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case reported in the literature of such a reaction in aesthetic breast surgery. The aim of this review is to raise the awareness of possible allergic and infective or inflammatory reactions to the suture material and to expand the knowledge of the management and interventions which are critical for patient safety and satisfaction. More research is needed to study this challenging topic.
