Technique

Methacrylate is biocompatible in its physical and chemical properties, without any protein molecule, promoting the definitive correction of depressions in any part of the body.

Due to their diameter and the lack of any irregularity on their surface, the microspheres are not phagocytosed, remaining in the place where they were placed. They induce the formation of collagen tissue, elastic fibers and neovascularization.

Due to its chemical composition and biocompatibility, the suspension medium also remains where it has been placed, thus contributing to the stability of the filler.

The indications for use approved by ANMAT must be strictly respected by doctors.
PMMA or polymethylmethacrylate spheres have a smooth and homogeneous texture. Once the product is applied, the spheres are permanently deposited in the tissues. Due to their size, shape and softness, they cannot be phagocytized or eliminated by the cells of the human immune system, nor can they be drained by the lymphatic system. After 1 to 3 months of its application, the spheres are completely surrounded by the body’s own collagen, resulting in a lasting and definitive correction or increase. Studies have observed that histologically, there are no observable changes in the tissue after 4 years of its placement, from which it can be deduced that it is a long-lasting treatment.
The correction of defects where PMMA is used is instantaneous, painless and definitive and does not present complications in most cases when it is used by doctors duly trained for it.
The duration is definitive and permanent, since it is a non-resorbable product, unlike other temporary resorbable fillers such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, etc.
