fat, that may be injected into certain areas of tissue to minimize skin depressions,
scars, and signs of aging. Absorbable materials, which include collagen, hyaluronic
acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), tend to
have more temporary effects, whereas the effects of non-absorbable materials, such
as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, tend to be more permanent.;
