Q: What is Perlane® used for?
A: Perlane® is used to smooth moderate to severe
facial folds and wrinkles such as the lines from
the nose to the corners of the mouth (nasolabial
folds). Perlane® generally lasts for about 6
months. It has been found to be a safe dermal
filler that restores volume and fullness to the
skin.
Q: How does Perlane® work?
A: Perlane® is injected into the skin with an ultrafine
needle. It plumps the skin to smooth away
wrinkles and folds. Perlane®’s water-loving
nature attracts and binds water molecules to
help maintain volume.
Perlane® is composed of hyaluronic acid, a
natural substance that already exists in the
body. The hyaluronic acid in Perlane® is a
crystal clear gel that is chemically cross-linked
(the long chemical strands are tied together) to
delay breakdown by skin enzymes. Perlane® is
non-animal-based and free from animal protein.
This quality prevents disease transmission.
Allergy pre-testing is not necessary.
Q: How long does Perlane® last?
A: Perlane® is proven to deliver long-lasting
results. Studies have shown that Perlane®
effects generally last about six months as
shown in the following graphs. Perlane®
gradually disappears from the body without
a trace. |
