What is Perlane®?
Perlane® is an injectable cosmetic dermal filler used
to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds
restoring volume and fullness to the skin. It adds
volume for structural support and lift.
How does Perlane® work?
Perlane® is injected into the skin or just below the
skin. It is composed of Hyaluronic acid. Because of its
hydrophilic or water loving nature, Perlane® attracts and
binds water molecules to help maintain volume. Its three
dimensional structure allows it to bind water many times
its own weight. This provides continual filling as the
gel begins to degrade causing Perlane® to last between
six months and a year.
What are the differences
between Perlane®, Restylane® and other injectable fillers?
Perlane® and Restylane are composed of the same
Hyaluronic acid. Perlane® is composed of larger gel
particles and consists of a higher concentration of
Hyaluronic acid than is found in
Restylane®. It is
intended for deeper injection to add volume for
structural support and lift for filling deep lines and
wrinkles.
Is any skin testing needed prior to
treatment?
Because Hyaluronic acid is found in the body, there is
no need for any skin testing.
How long do the results of Perlane®
last?
Perlane® is a long-lasting injectable filler. The
affect of Perlane® commonly lasts at least six months.
Since Perlane® is biodegradable, the gel particles will
slowly degrade with no harmful affects to the body.
