Filler And Botox Flashcards
Liquid silicon is relatively safe to use.
F. Liquid silicone use was associated with multiple complications such as migration of the material, hepatic granulomas and hepatitis, and even death
demonstrated a posterior and inferior rotation of the facial skeleton and bony remodeling contributing to the loss of midface projection
T
Anterograde injection associated with less bruising due to hydrodissection of the planned filler
T
Retrograde injection of filler as the needle is withdrawn may minimize the risk of intravascular injection and diminish accessory dissected regions
T
stop anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet agents a week prior to
treatment to minimize bruising.
T
techniques that produce more epidermal injury (multiple punctures as in serial puncture or cross-hatching techniques) do not seem to increase the occurrence of adverse events.
T
reduction in facial expressions for the first 24 hours may be associated with decreased filler material migration and improved patient’s cosmetic outcome
reduction in facial expressions for the first 48 hours may be associated with decreased filler material migration and improved patient’s cosmetic outcome
Both dermal and fascia! grafts have incorporation rates equivalent to that of autologous fat and provide similar duration of improvement
T
The type of collagen that need alargec test before using it is zyderm
T. Non autologous biologic filler like bovine collagen ( zyderm) need test becoz of high immunologic reactivity,
HA is equal to or superior to collagen in correcting nasolabial folds for longer periods of time
T
Factors affecting viscosity include size and molecular weight of the HA particles
T
higher G’ translates into greater tissue lift but smoth feeling
F. higher G’ translates into greater tissue lift but firmer feel.
Higher viscosity is associated with decreased spread of the filler within tissues but also with decreased ease of injection.
T
Scalptra is hydrophilic
F. Hydrophobic
Both human collagen products, Cosmoderm (Inamed) and Cosmoplast (!named), and porcine collagen products, called Evolence require skin
testing prior to treatment
F have a low risk of allergic reaction and do not require skin
testing prior to treatment
bovine collagen requires double skin testing
T
HAs
do not require allergy testing prior to injection
T
HA is equal to or superior to collagen in correcting
nasolabial folds for longer periods of time
T
The bovine collagen filler Zyderm (Inamed Corp., Santa Barbara,
Calif.) was the first nonautologous filler to be approved by the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
T
HAs are
chemically identical in all species; therefore, no allergy skin testing
is required prior to their use
T
Animal-based HA fillers, which are
no longer marketed in the United States, are derived from rooster
combs
T
A greater
degree of cross-linking correlates clinically with longer duration of
effect of the filler.
T
Viscosity refers to the ability of the gel to resist shear forces
T
non-animal-based HAs are derived from bacterial
fermentation of Streptococcus equi
T
Why is scalptra not advices to used in the periorla or periorbital area ?
use of the filler in the perioral and periorbital regions may be associated with an increase risk of skin papules or subcutaneous nodules; therefore, caution should be used or treatment avoided in these areas
HAs are equivalent or superior
to human, bovine, and porcine collagen in correcting nasolabial folds
as well as volume deficits at other sites including the dorsal hands
T
elastic modulus refers to the ability of the gel to resist deformation
T
Polymethylmethacrylate contiane bovine coolagen
T for that reason must undrgo skin testing prior to use
PMMA if it put superficial produce asymptomatic nodules?
F. superficial placement of this product is associated with pruritis, redness, and h yp ertrophic scarring. 3 7 Topical steroid use and intralesional corticosteroid administration may be employed to ameliorate these problems.
the filler effect has a duration of approximately 18 to 24 months which is due to fibroblast stimulation and deposition of type 1 collagen into the areas of PLLA microspheres.
T
use of Sculptra in the perioral and periorbital regions may
be associated with an increase risk of skin papules or subcutaneous
nodules; therefore, caution should be used or treatment avoided in
these areas
T
PLLA is a hydrophobic compound and requires reconstitution
with bacteriostatic water for a minimum of 3 hours prior to injection.
T
Calcium Hydroxylapatite can inject superficial
F this product is highly viscous and deep injection is
recommended.
An injectable acellular dermal graft has been developed and demonstrated to be effective in improving upper lip volume and lower lip projection without local or systemic
complications
T
HAs placed too superficially produce small lumps or visible bumps. called the Tyndall effect
T
