Application of Hard Tissue Filler for Chin Contouring

With hightened interest in bone contouring surgeries, newer and lesser invasive treatment modalities for bone augmentation surgeries are being introduced. Bone augmentation effects with long lasting injectable tissue fillers were studied. Between June, 2006 and November, 2008, 33 cases of small chin patients underwent chin augmentation via Royamid(R) and Radiesse(R) injections, 9 and 24 cases respectively. No complications were observed through the follow up period. Twenty six patients showed satisfaction with aesthetic results at 6 months follow up. In 7 cases, temporary swelling and erythema were observed. The augmentation effect lasted more than 6 momths in both Royamid(R) hard and Radiesse(R) groups. In 7 cases of Royamid(R) hard group, the aesthetic effects lasted more than one year. Long lasting tissue filler seems to be a good alternative treatment modality for bone augmentation surgery if approached with strict protocol indications and careful patient selection.

A Trial of Radiesse(R) for Facial Soft Tissue Augmentation

Ideal charateristics of soft tissue fillers include longevity, biocompatibility, low adverse event profile and a reasonable cost. Radiesse(R) have many advantage as the desirable properties of facial filler. Authors introduce Radiesse(R) was recently introduced as a facial filler agent. Radiesse(R) was injected to 81 male and female patients in the study, using 27G fine needle. The age range of the patients was 22 to 48 years. The injected areas were nasal root, tip, nasolabial folds and jaw. We measured patient satisfaction scale during the period of follow up 2 to 6 months. The scale of satisfaction was good to excellent in 69 cases of 81 cases and fair in 9 cases of 81 cases. Patients satisfaction was poor in only 3 cases. Patients were observed no systemic effects but minimal adverse events which are leakage, nodule and subclinical inflammation. Radiesse(R) was highly effective, long lasting material for facial soft tissue augmentation. If a precise injection technique were applied, Radiesse(R) can be a very good option for real volumetric facial soft tissue augmentation.
