What is a Vascular Occlusion?

In aesthetic medicine, Vascular Occlusions most often happen when dermal filler is inadvertently injected into or compresses a blood vessel, limiting oxygen and nutrient supply to the surrounding tissue. While rare, VOs require immediate recognition and treatment to prevent long-term damage. Early detection and intervention is key, and knowing what to look for, and who to call, makes all the difference.

Real Member story

Meet Sharna.

In August 2024, she encountered one of the most challenging moments of her career: a cheek filler treatment resulted in a confirmed vascular occlusion.

Within minutes of identifying the signs, she had a Fresh Clinics doctor on the line, clear instructions on managing the adverse event and ongoing guidance and support for her and the patient until the complication resolved completely.

Sharna now advocates strongly for every cosmetic nurse having a partner like Fresh Clinics for patient safety, guidance, and peace of mind.
