ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Limited data are available describing effectiveness of combining the use of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) and hyaluronic acid (HA).METHODS:
The authors performed a retrospective chart review of patients injected with a premixed combination of CaHA and a cohesive polydensified matrix (CPM®) HA (CaHACPM-HA ) in the authors' aesthetic practices. The midface and lower face were injected. Patients' records were evaluated, and treatment results were scored using the Merz Aesthetics Scale for the jawline® (clinician rated, CR-MASJ). Adverse events were recorded.RESULTS:
A total of 41 patients were included, all females with a mean age of 47.5 years (range 21-63 years). The mean CR-MASJ score improved from 2.12 at baseline to 0.68 at t = 3 months (SD = 0.69, 95% CI 1.28-1.60) and 1.27 at t = 12 months (SD = 0.74, 95% CI 0.43-0.74). 100% of the subjects had experienced a ≥1-point improvement in CR-MASJ score at t = 3 months, versus 85% at t = 12 months. No adverse events were reported.CONCLUSION:
The results of this study support the volumizing and lifting potential of the hybrid mix CaHACPM-HA for treatment of cheeks and jawline.
