SoftForm Facial Implants

What is SoftForm facial implant?
The Softform implant is a persistent
yet removable facial implant for the treatment of deep facial furrows or
creases such as nasolabial folds (creases between the nose and corners
of the mouth), deep frown lines, and definition of the border surrounding
the lips. The facial implant will help provide substantial correction of
the furrow or crease.
What is the SoftForm facial implant made
of?
The Softform implant is a soft, tube-shaped
implant made of a biocompatible polymer. It is proven material which
has been used for more than 20 years in a variety of medical applications
including replacement of deteriorated blood vessels in over 3.5
million people, hernia repair, abdominal wall reinforcement, and, more recently,
soft tissue augmentation of the face.
How does the SoftForm facial implant work?
The Softform implant helps to eliminate
deep facial creases and furrows by providing structure and support underneath
the skin. The SoftForm facial implant helps to reduce the depth of
the crease or furrow by raising it to the level of the
surrounding skin.
What is involved in the SoftForm facial
implant procedure?
Treatment with Softform implant consists of
a simple in-office procedure done under a local anesthetic. The implant
is inserted below the surface of the skin through two small incisions.
The procedure generally takes less than one-half hour, but will vary depending
on the number of implants used.
