Cheek augmentation with Dermicol-P35 27G.
Full and high cheekbones are considered a desirable component of facial attractiveness. The aging process can result in a loss of facial volume and changes in facial contours. Cheek augmentation can replace lost facial volume, rejuvenate facial appearance, enhance cheek prominence, and improve facial symmetry. A new, highly purified, porcine-based collagen filler Dermicol-P35 #27G (Evolence; Ortho Dermatologics, Skillman, NJ) is now available that does not require pretreatment sensitivity testing and has shown a 12-month persistence of results in clinical trials. This article discusses the clinical experience of patients who received cheek augmentation with Dermicol-P35.
