Rheology Of Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers: Understanding The Science ToImprove Results In Clinical Practice

Abstract

Hyaluronic acid fillers are one of the most frequently used in cosmetic procedures. They are popular because of their ability to restore volume to the face, which surgery isn’t capable of. Inside the skin, the implant is subjected to various mechanical forces that vary according to the anatomical area. Every filler has specific rheological properties which change the way it performs in the clinical environment. A sound understanding of how the anatomy of the face works, alongside the rheological properties of the filler, is vital for successful outcomes in facial rejuvenation procedures.
