Review
BACKGROUND
Delayed reactions associated with dermal fillers have often been attributed to hypersensitivity reactions; however, the evolving literature suggests that biofilms may represent an underrecognized cause and a difficult diagnosis to establish. As implanted devices become more popular, biofilms present an increasing risk to patients.
OBJECTIVE
The mechanism of action for biofilm formation, diagnostic challenges, and methods to recognize biofilms will be reviewed. These are increasingly important for physicians who implant these devices and for those who see patients with implanted devices.
METHODS
We review the relevant literature and explore some of these issues.
CONCLUSION
Preventative measures may decrease delayed reactions and biofilm formation after injection of dermal fillers. Infection through biofilms should be considered and carefully evaluated to ensure timely treatment.

Review
Rubber is a ubiquitous material with a varied range of properties resulting from its manufacturing process. Rubber allergy also has various forms and is a common cause of morbidity in many occupations. This contribution discusses the main issues surrounding allergy to this compound and at each section distinguishes between type I allergy to latex (natural rubber) and type IV allergy to rubber additives.

A 54-year-old man presented with worsening bilateral rashes on legs and arms 7 days after receiving his BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 (Pfizer) vaccine booster. He developed burning on his palms about 5 days after receiving the booster. On day 6, he observed significant edema on his fingers and palms in addition to thin erythematous papules on his forearms. On day 7, he developed edema on his bilateral dorsal feet, and thin erythematous plaques on his shins. He stated that the rashes were pruritic. He had no rashes following the first two doses of the Pfizer vaccine. He denied having any history of skin disease, autoimmune disease, or allergies. Physical examination revealed multiple thin erythematous papules coalescing into thin plaques on his flexor forearms, and thin erythematous plaques on his dorsal feet (Figure 1). Three 4-mm punch biopsies were performed on his left flexor forearm. The biopsies were carried out at papules present for different lengths of time. Papules at biopsy sites "A," "B," and "C" were present for approximately 24-36 hours, 12-18 hours, and 3-6 hours, respectively (Figure 1).

Two women developed well-demarcated eczematous and erythematous plaques localized to the injection sites of subcutaneous preservative-free heparin 72-96 h after heparin administration. The plaques resolved within a week of discontinuing the therapy. Neither epicutaneous testing with preservative-free heparin nor in vitro proliferation assays to heparin and two low molecular weight glycosaminoglycans could elicit a response in either patient. In contrast, both patients developed localized eczematous plaques 48-96 h after re-challenge with intradermal and/or subcutaneous heparin. Delayed hypersensitivity reactions to subcutaneous heparin are uncommon and have not been reported in the Australasian medical literature. Given the frequency with which heparin preparations are used, it is important for physicians and surgeons to be aware of this potential adverse reaction.
