背景:在亚洲,由于技术进步,对美容面部护理的需求激增,提高社会可接受性,和负担能力。聚L-乳酸(PLLA)填料,以其生物相容性和生物降解性而闻名,已经成为面部轮廓的流行选择,然而,专门针对其在亚洲人群中使用的研究很少。
方法:这项回顾性研究检查了30例使用PLLA填充剂进行面部轮廓整形的中国患者,专注于产品组成,注射技术,和安全措施。进行了全面的临床评估,包括有效性和患者满意度的全球美学改善量表(GAIS)和全球变化印象量表(GICS),分别。
结果:在12个月的时间内,注射者和盲症评估者之间的GAIS评分没有显着差异,表明一致的有效性。患者满意度仍然很高,GICS评分反映了积极的结果。安全性很好,未报告严重不良事件。该研究强调了解剖学知识对避免并发症的重要性,特别是在容易失明的地区。
结论:PLLA填料提供了一种安全的,亚洲人群面部轮廓矫正的有效选择,实现较高的患者满意度,并随着时间的推移保持结果。这项研究强调了亚洲人需要量身定做的整容手术方法,考虑到他们独特的面部结构和审美目标。进一步研究与更大,建议使用多中心队列来验证这些发现并探索长期影响。

BACKGROUND: In Asia, the demand for cosmetic facial treatments has surged due to technological advancements, increased social acceptability, and affordability. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fillers, known for their biocompatibility and biodegradability, have emerged as a popular choice for facial contouring, yet studies specifically addressing their use in Asian populations are scarce.
METHODS: This retrospective study examined 30 Chinese patients who underwent facial contouring with PLLA fillers, focusing on product composition, injection techniques, and safety measures. A comprehensive clinical evaluation was performed, including the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) and Global Impression of Change Scale (GICS) for effectiveness and patient satisfaction, respectively.
RESULTS: No significant difference in GAIS scores was observed between injectors and blinded evaluators over a 12-month period, indicating consistent effectiveness. Patient satisfaction remained high, with GICS scores reflecting positive outcomes. The safety profile was favorable, with no serious adverse events reported. The study highlighted the importance of anatomical knowledge to avoid complications, particularly in areas prone to blindness.
CONCLUSIONS: PLLA fillers offer a safe, effective option for facial contour correction in the Asian population, achieving high patient satisfaction and maintaining results over time. The study underscores the need for tailored approaches in cosmetic procedures for Asians, considering their unique facial structures and aesthetic goals. Further research with larger, multicenter cohorts is recommended to validate these findings and explore long-term effects.
