Injectable Tissue-Engineered Soft Tissue for Tissue Augmentation
Soft tissue augmentation is a process of implanting tissues or materials to treat wrinkles or soft tissue defects in the body. Over the years, various materials have evolved to correct soft tissue defects, including a number of tissues and polymers. Autogenous dermis, autogenous fat, autogenous dermis-fat, allogenic dermis, synthetic implants, and fillers have been widely accepted for soft tiss...
متن کاملSoft tissue augmentation with ArteFill.
ArteFill is a novel, third-generation polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) injectable filler with unique properties. When compared with predecessor materials, ArteFill demonstrates improved biocompatibility as a result of more uniform PMMA microsphere size and shape. This translates into less adverse events after placement. ArteFill can provide a permanent volume enhancement by stimulation of fibrobla...
متن کاملDelayed inflammatory reaction to bio-alcamid polyacrylamide gel used for soft-tissue augmentation.
BACKGROUND Given the recent boom of the cosmetic industry, there is a wealth of new products available to patients and physicians, including soft-tissue fillers. Bio-Alcamid polyacrylamide gel (Polymekon, Milan, Italy) is a filler that has potential to cause adverse reactions. OBSERVATIONS Two patients who had previously been treated with Bio-Alcamid outside of the United States presented wit...
متن کاملDual-porosity expanded polytetrafluoroethylene soft tissue implant: a new implant for facial soft tissue augmentation.
OBJECTIVE To illustrate problems observed with low-porosity expanded polytetrafluoroethylene soft tissue implants and to describe a new dual-porosity implant, the technique for insertion, and this author's preliminary experience. METHOD A review of 175 pieces of SoftForm (Collagen Corporation, Palo Alto, Calif) placed in 69 patients over 3 years was performed. Between October 1, 1997, and Sep...
متن کاملDevelopment and characterization of a rapid polymerizing collagen for soft tissue augmentation
A liquid collagen has been developed that fibrilizes upon injection. Rapid polymerizing collagen (RPC) is a type I porcine collagen that undergoes fibrillization upon interaction with ionic solutions, such as physiological solutions. The ability to inject liquid collagen would be beneficial for many soft tissue augmentation applications. In this study, RPC was synthesized and characterized as a...
