tier1 Microfocused Ultrasound With Visualization (MFU-V) and Hyperdilute Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA-CMC) of the Lower Face and Submentum to Treat Skin Laxity: A Pilot Study Demonstrating Superiority of MFU-V First Followed by Hyperdilute CaHA-CMC.
Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Microfocused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) and hyperdilute calcium hydroxylapatite-carboxymethylcellulose (CaHA-CMC) dermal injections are effective for improving skin laxity in the lower face and submentum by stimulating neocollagenesis and neoelastogenesis. OBJECTIVES: Combining these treatments in an optimal order may inform best practice in aesthetic dermatology. Despite their frequent...

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA)-carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)+ has unique properties that make it optimal for lifting, contouring, and defining the jawline. This long-term follow-up of a randomized, multicenter, rater-blinded trial reports efficacy and safety of CaHA-CMC(+) through 48 and up to 60 weeks post-treatment. METHODS: Eligible patients were randomized (2:1) to the treatment or the control/delayed...

View on PubMedtier1 A systematic review of Radiesse/calcium hydroxylapatite and carboxymethylcellulose: evidence and recommendations for treatment of the face.
Abstract summary (English) Radiesse® is a filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a carboxymethylcellulose gel (CaHA/CMC). It has robust rheological properties that have been associated with its versatility. CaHA/CMC is employed for both on-label indications of filling wrinkles or lines, volumizing, and contouring of areas as well as off-label indications aiming at biostimulation and skin tightening.

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: One of the early signs of aging is loss of jawline contour. Not all cases require surgical intervention and soft-tissue augmentation with injectable fillers may restore the profile and youthful appearance of the jawline. OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of calcium hydroxylapatite with lidocaine [CaHA (+); Radiesse® (+)] to improve the contour of jawline after deep (subdermal...

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Supraperiosteal injection by calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) fillers is an efficient treatment for facial rejuvenation to achieve bony recontouring, facial augmentation and lifting. However, a safe and efficient injection technique for Asians was not described, and an assessment scale to quantify "facial anti-aging" does not exist. METHODS: We enrolled 16 Asian women (n = 32) to receive a single session of...
