66-year-old woman with PET CT for fever of unknown origin. Palpable indurations of the nasolabial folds. FDG avid areas in bilateral nasolabial folds (arrows in a) appear of intermediate signal intensity on T2 W (b), isointense on T1 W (c), and homogenously enhancing on post-gadolinium T1 W fat saturated (d) sequences (arrows). The location of this signal abnormality prompts the diagnosis of previously injected facial filler. Histopathology showed FBG due to probably PLLA facial filler injections
