Abstract
Stabilized hyaluronic acid (HA), produced through diverse cross-linking technology and formulated as an injectable gel, has found widespread utilization in aesthetic industry. Cross-linked HA essentially constitutes a gel particle composition formed by numerous viscoelastic particulates. Various product formulations yield HA gels with distinct properties, including particle size, viscoelasticity, and interaction forces between particles. While previous studies have primarily concentrated on the biological safety and macroscopic expression of fillers, limited research exists on the internal mechanisms governing their macro-performance. This study selected three common dermal fillers for analysis, establishing an animal model to assess their in vivo interaction with surrounding tissues and explore their internal mechanisms. The findings revealed that particle size plays a crucial role in tissue integration.
稳定透明质酸(HA)通过不同的交联技术生产,并配制成可注射凝胶,已在美容行业得到广泛应用。交联透明质酸本质上是由许多粘弹性颗粒组成的凝胶颗粒成分。各种产品配方产生的 HA 凝胶具有不同的特性,包括颗粒大小、粘弹性和颗粒间的相互作用力。以往的研究主要集中在填充剂的生物安全性和宏观表现上,而对其宏观性能的内部机制研究有限。本研究选择了三种常见的皮肤填充剂进行分析,通过建立动物模型来评估它们在体内与周围组织的相互作用,并探索其内部机制。研究结果表明,颗粒大小在组织整合中起着至关重要的作用。
期刊介绍:
The official journal of the National Society for Histotechnology, Journal of Histotechnology, aims to advance the understanding of complex biological systems and improve patient care by applying histotechniques to diagnose, prevent and treat diseases.
Journal of Histotechnology is concerned with educating practitioners and researchers from diverse disciplines about the methods used to prepare tissues and cell types, from all species, for microscopic examination. This is especially relevant to Histotechnicians.
Journal of Histotechnology welcomes research addressing new, improved, or traditional techniques for tissue and cell preparation. This includes review articles, original articles, technical notes, case studies, advances in technology, and letters to editors.
Topics may include, but are not limited to, discussion of clinical, veterinary, and research histopathology.
