Fillers (fillers) hyaluronic acid are the most widely used due to its biocompatibility and relative safety .. However, the main problem is its duration, which ranges from 4 to 9 months, depending on some factors (viscosity, the technology used, the crosslinking of the implant, etc.)..
On the other hand, being an active component of the skin, our body is able to degrade hyaluronic acid more or less rapidly, depending on the activity and product hialuranidasas used. The same applies to those who have collagen fillers, which are eliminated by the activity of collagen.
Currently in the market Polyethylene Glycol (PEG), the material degrades very slowly in 2 to 3 years.
  Meet the standars filler must have as parameters:
• Biocompatible
• Non-toxic
• No allergic
• Degradable
• Does not absorb
• No immigration

Polyethilen glycol (PEG) is slow degradation (36 months) compared to hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is degradable after 12 months.
