Abstract: Dermal filler compositions can comprise hyaluronic acid and a conjugated vitamin C derivative. The compositions can provide for extended release of active vitamin C into tissue, which can promote collagenesis and other benefits to skin.

Abstract: Hydrogels comprising a macromolecular matrix and water may be used to augment soft tissue of a human being, promote or support cell or tissue viability or proliferation, create space in tissue, and for other purposes. A macromolecular matrix may comprise a hyaluronic acid component crosslinked to a silk fibroin component.

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: Compositions useful as dermal fillers and methods using such compositions to treat various skin and soft tissue conditions. The dermal fillers can comprise silk attached to hyaluronic acid using for example two cross linkers and can be used to treat of facial imperfections, facial defects, facial augmentations, breast imperfections, breast augmentations or breast reconstructions.

Abstract: A built-in S-typed array eddy current testing probe and a method for detecting defects of a tubular structure are provided. The probe includes an exciting coil part and a plurality of pick-up coil parts, wherein: the exciting coil part includes multiple bundles of exciting coil wires helically wound on a columnar coil former with a same interval; two bundles of exciting coil wires with an interval of 180° are connected at an end of the columnar coil former, actually being a same group of exciting coil wire bundles; each pick-up coil part consists of two rows of pancake coils; each four pancake coils which are closely arranged in a square shape form one differential eddy current testing pick-up unit; a final output signal is a result of additions between signals of opposite pancake coils and subtractions between signals of adjacent pancake coils in each differential eddy current testing pick-up unit.

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: 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: Hydrogels comprising a macromolecular matrix and water may be used for aesthetic fillers, for example, dermal fillers. The macromolecular matrix may include a crosslinked combination of hyaluronic acid and collagen.
