A Health Sciences Authority investigation into the dermal filler AestheFill has found no evidence of product-related safety and quality issues, after a woman lost her vision in the first reported case of its kind in Singapore.
HSA said in a statement on Thursday that to mitigate the risk of blood vessel blockage causing blindness, Parvus - the Singapore distributor of AestheFill - would strengthen the training of healthcare professionals and retrain its existing providers. ST first reported in September that the woman apparently suffered sudden blindness after she was injected with AestheFill at the clinic. It is understood to have affected both her eyes.On Thursday, HSA said that as part of its investigations, it reviewed the device history records for the specific lot of AestheFill that was injected into the woman. The records contain details about the manufacturing process, including quality checks and the results of these tests.
Blindness due to blood vessel blockage is a known risk for dermal fillers, and consumers should be aware of these risks, the authority said.
