Less Invasive Procedures – BIOPLASTY

There was a time when surgery was the only rejuvenation or beautifying resource to replace tissues on an optimal position and to remove excess skin.

Surgical resources were not substituted but added to the possibility of filling in empty spaces, depressions and more shriveled areas.

Although a valid resource, fat grafts were experienced but showed limitations, as results were unpredictable. A great amount or all the implanted fat was reabsorbed in a few months.

Finally, PMMA surfaced – Polymethilmethacrilate, a permanent compound, and recognized for use with limitations in humans by the Brazilian Health Department, generating the terminology bioplasty.

PMMA offers the possibility of overall application on the body.

On the face, it will help filling in nasofacial creases, wrinkles at the corner of the mouth, chin increase, refurbishes the cheeks , restores the mandible contour, etc.

On the nose, it will help correct small details, eventually leading to interesting results that will improve the facial harmony, although not substituting the resources of a traditional rhinoplasty.

As for the body per se, it is an important ally in filling in depressions and asymmetric areas.

One should be attentive to the fact that this is a substance alien to the body, most always subjected to allergic reactions or rejection by the organism, although reports regarding these occurrences are rare.

Bioplasty is a procedure that can be performed in the doctor's office, with low cost when compared to surgical procedures. It does not substitute surgeries but is an adjuvant towards better results.
