Macrolane

Treatments with Macrolane™

Macrolane - the first body shaping treatment using hyaluronic acid.

Macrolane is injected deep into the subcutis under local anaesthetic. Macrolane VRF comes in two formulations that can be injected separately or in combination to ensure full correction and smoothness of the skin surface. The formulation and volume of Macrolane used (either VRF 20 or VRF 30) will be dependant on the individual and treatment area.

Treatments

Macrolane is a product for volume restoration and contouring of body surfaces. The most common areas for which Macrolane is currently being used include;

Breasts
Post liposuction concavities
Calves
Buttocks
Male Chest Shaping (Pecs)

For men

Macrolane provides a range of treatments to enhance and shape the body giving a natural look. As treatment is minimally invasive and downtime minimal too, treatment with Macrolane is the first generation in body aesthetics. Following are the most common indications of interest for Macrolane treatments to men;

Male Chest (Pecs)
Post Liposuction Concavities
Buttock Shaping
Male Enhancement
Calves Shaping

Macrolane for breast shaping

Macrolane iis currently approved for use of volume restoration and shaping of body surfaces. Many physicians see advantages of using Macrolane for breast shaping as opposed to more invasive techniques.

Women who are considering breast shaping with Macrolane will want to be reassured that the implant will not adversely affect the efficiency of future mammograms and/or the breast tissue itself. In one study, mammography after Macrolane injection for breast augmentation was evaluated. It was concluded that mammograms from these patients were easy to evaluate. Furthermore, routine supplementation of mammography with MRI does not appear necessary in patients treated with Macrolane.1

Q-Med, the manufacturer of Macrolane, is committed to continuous research and development and patient safety is a high priority. A number of physicians are currently working with Q-Med as part of this continued commitment.
