Bioplastia
What is used for a bioplasty?
Skin bio-fillers are used for bioplasty.
There are two modes of action:
The skin filler is an inert and hypoallergenic substance that is introduced in the patient’s expression marks, seeking to soften it, for example: restylane, matacryl, etc.
The skin filler is a substance that will induce the formation of collagen and the filling will be done after a few weeks, for example: sculptra, etc.
Some substances previously used were abolished and prohibited due to the allergenic characteristics they presented.
How is a bioplasty performed?
Bioplasty is a quick procedure that resembles a small injection, performed in the office under local anesthesia.
What can happen after a bioplasty session?
After bioplasty, the following may occur:
Purplish areas (ecchymosis)
Small swelling (edema)
Slight redness on the spot
Transient discomfort
What precautions should I take after bioplasty?
Due to the simplicity of the procedure, little care should be taken. All complications mentioned above resolve spontaneously within a maximum of 72 hours.
