Because there is a risk of nodule formation in areas with complex blood vessels and nerves like the face, or in areas with thin skin layers like the neck and hands, a perfect understanding of the anatomical structure and abundant clinical experience are essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-aed-quote-2 is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"q12\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;font-size:19px;line-height:1.7\"><strong>Q12.
