INJECTABLE IMPLANT TO BE ADMINISTERED TO HUMANS

摘要

The invention relates to an injectable implant employed in plastic or reconstructive surgery and in dermatology, comprising microspheres or microparticles consisting of at least one polyester selected from the lactic acid polymers, glycolic acid polymers and lactic and glycolic acid copolymers. The process for producing the implant comprises the following steps: dissolving the polymer in an essential organic solvent, dispersing the same in water, preparing the polymer microspheres or microparticles by the evaporation of the solvent or by controlled precipitation, preparing a gel with suitable viscosity in order to keep the microspheres or microparticles in suspension, distributing the same into syringes or flasks and using the implant in plastic or reconstructive surgery and in aesthetic dermatology.
