Abstract
ERAZO, P.J. et al. Facial filling with hyaloronic acid: pillars technique and supporting mesh. Basic principles to obtain a facial remodelling. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2009, vol.35, n.3, pp.181-194. ISSN 1989-2055.
We present two techniques of facial injectable resorbable filling, using hyaluronic acid (HA), and the different results obtained with both methods, based on physical principles of sustentation, intending to demonstrate how theese techniques can optimize and rationalize the use of the filling substance, contributing to enhance the results and cost-benefit relation. We also make a general presentation of the basic principles that remodel the cutaneous tissue using facial filling methods, as well as the importance of the clinical evaluation to achieve a fine diagnostic, emphasizing the limits when selecting the patient, listing the important and ethical points related to the use of facial filling procedures.
