title: Fibrel.
abstract: Fibrel is a useful product for the treatment of depressed cutaneous scars, facial lines, and wrinkles. There have been documented increases in collagen production and inflammatory response over time. Adverse reactions seem to be minimal. If a more user-friendly product can be used--no plasma, minimal inflammatory response, 30-gauge needle--Fibrel should be considered in all patients for soft tissue augmentation.
