Injection techniques.
As is the case with Aphrodite Gold and Artecoll,
the product should be injected into the border of the dermis and
subcutaneous fat. The
needle is drawn forwards and backwards (tunneling technique) while
maintaining constant pressure throughout the procedure. The product should
flow slowly but evenly and without great exertion. The gray of the needle
should not shine through the skin, so it should not create a "blanching
effect". After injection, the product should be molded with the fingertip
to assure an even distribution in the skin. Overcorrection is not
advisable. A second implantation may be recommended after 3 months. The
volume to be implanted depends on the depth of the wrinkle and is
determined on an individual basis.
