Cutaneous sarcoidal granulomas developing after facial cosmetic filler in a patient with newly diagnosed systemic sarcoidosis

Erratum. Notice is given that it has been drawn to the attention of the journal that the dermal filler used in this case was erroneously identified as Artecoll®. The authors submitted this article in good faith on the strength of documentary evidence that Artecoll® had been used. Subsequent expert opinion indicates that the particles seen in the skin biopsy are not Artecoll®.
