Abstract

Two cases of foreign body granulomas developed after correction of face wrinkles with Bioplastique--a new microimplant. The characteristic histopathologic findings of a foreign body granuloma with cystic spaces and bizarre outlined, glassy material led to the correct diagnosis 'Bioplastique-granuloma' in spite of scarce clinical information.
