Abstract: Microneedle arrays for introducing an active ingredient through a skin surface of a subject can include a base layer, a plurality of microneedles projecting from the base layer, and an active ingredient. Each of the microneedles comprises an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion, in which the proximal portion is attached to the base layer. Each of the microneedles comprises at least one dissolvable polymer. The active ingredient is incorporated in the elongate body, and the active ingredient is present only in the distal portion and at least internally in the distal portion.

Abstract: Microneedle arrays for introducing an active ingredient through a skin surface of a patient can include a base layer, a plurality of microneedles projecting from the base layer, and a shell layer having an active ingredient. Each of the microneedles includes an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion, in which the proximal portion is attached to the base layer. Each of the microneedles can also include at least one dissolvable polymer. The active ingredient is incorporated in the shell layer, which extends around at least a portion of the elongate body.

Abstract: Provided are injectable, hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel compositions including conjugated vitamins.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides dermal fillers comprising hyaluronic acid-based hydrogels. The hydrogels are coacervates formed through ionic interactions between anionic polysaccharides, such as hyaluronic acid, and cationic polysaccharides, such as chitosan. The dermal fillers are useful for augmenting soft tissues, reducing soft tissue defects and improving skin quality.

Abstract: The present invention provides highly injectable, long-lasting hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel dermal filler compositions made with a di-amine or multiamine crosslinker in the presence of a carbodiimide coupling agent.

Abstract: Provided are injectable, hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler compositions including conjugated vitamin C derivatives. The compositions provide for extended release of active vitamin C into tissue, promoting collagenesis and other benefits to skin.

Abstract: The present invention provides highly injectable, long-lasting hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel dermal filler compositions which are particularly advantageous for correction of fine lines in the face.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the treatment of ion imbalances using core-shell composites and compositions comprising such core-shell composites. In particular, the invention provides core-shell particles and compositions comprising potassium binding polymers, and core-shell particles and compositions comprising sodium binding polymers, and in each case, pharmaceutical compositions thereof. Methods of use of the polymeric and pharmaceutical compositions for therapeutic and/or prophylactic benefits are also disclosed. The compositions and methods of the invention offer improved approaches for treatment of hyperkalemia and other indications related to potassium ion homeostasis, and for treatment of hypertension and other indicates related to sodium ion homeostasis.
