Abstract
A 52-year-old man with a history of HIV presented with lumps on his forehead and temples for three weeks. He denied any pain or itching. He noticed these lumps first appeared three to four days after he applied a new “anti-aging” cream onto his face. He stated he only applied the cream to the forehead and temples. He has since stopped using this cream. He has a history of Botox injections to the forehead and temple area as well, with his last treatment being several months ago.
