Abstract
Ultrasound in aesthetics presents multiple applications in several areas, including diagnosing fillers and non-fillers complications, the performance of ultrasound-guided injections in real-time, and identifying the most common types of cosmetic fillers. Furthermore, this application of ultrasound in aesthetics has become a must for managing aesthetic patients because, to date, this modality is the one that provides the higher resolution among imaging techniques, detailed anatomical information, and blood flow detection, besides showing worldwide availability. This paper aims to review the current applications of ultrasound in aesthetics based on publications from scientific literature and the authors' experience.
