Abstract: Disclosed herein are soft tissue fillers, for example, dermal and subdermal fillers, based on hyaluronic acids and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Some of the hyaluronic acid-based compositions can include a therapeutically effective amount of at least one anesthetic agent, for example, lidocaine. Compared to conventional compositions that include lidocaine, some of the hyaluronic acid-based compositions disclosed herein can have an enhanced stability, for example, when subjected to sterilization techniques or when stored for long periods of time. Methods and processes of preparing such compositions are also provided.
Abstract: A tissue expansion device can be implanted temporarily beneath skin of a patient and removed upon predetermined expansion of overlying tissue. The device can include an expandable shell having a smooth or glossy outer surface and an injection port. The expandable shell can form an expandable chamber and have an anterior portion and a posterior portion. The injection port can be coupled to the anterior portion of the shell and be in fluid communication with the chamber and configured to permit injection of fluid into the chamber from a hypodermic needle. The device can have a plurality of tabs coupled to the posterior portion of the shell having one or more colors or attributes. The device can also include an orientation indicator visible along the anterior portion of the shell for assisting a clinician and orienting the device during the implantation procedure.
