VIDEO: New dermal fillers add flexibility

WAILEA, HAWAII – Two hyaluronic acid products now available in the United States are “much more stretchable and flexible” than other fillers, according to Nowell Solish, MD, of the University of Toronto.

The dermal fillers, Restylane Defyne and Restylane Refyne, have been available in Canada, and Dr. Solish was involved in a Canadian study of the fillers in patients in motion. With the new fillers, “animation looks more natural after than before the fillers,” he said at the Hawaii Dermatology Seminar, provided by Global Academy for Medical Education/Skin Disease Education Foundation. In addition to providing a more natural look, the new fillers may also help prevent the development of lines in certain areas, such as around the mouth, he noted.

In a video interview at the meeting, Dr. Solish explained that when he treats a patient, he looks for where there is “too much activity,” such as frequent pursing of the lips, and puts filler in to balance the activity.

He disclosed relationships with Allergan, Galderma (the manufacturer of Restylane products), and Revance.
