Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a viscoelastic gel. The substance has a high ability to deform. It also has properties such as plasticity, lift, ease of distribution, and tissue mobilization during facial muscle activity. The aim of the study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of HA at the microscopic level. The study was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, the tissue filler was injected bolus-subdermally to rats and rabbits. The second stage involved female volunteers. The drug was also administered to the problem areas on the face. In addition to the histochemical observation, the effectiveness of the procedure on the woman’s face was also evaluated. High safety was demonstrated, as well as an increase in the expression level of collagen and elastin fibers.
