| Summary: | The clinical use of combined technologies has been increasing to address the effects of skin aging on the face and other areas of the body. Poly-L-lactic acid is a biocompatible, semipermanent synthetic filler used for volume enhancement through neocollagenesis induction by fibroblast activation. Similarly, energy-based technologies, such as high-intensity focused ultrasound and microneedling radiofrequency devices, promote fat reduction and collagen contraction by heating the deep dermis. This article presents expert panel recommendations and a literature review on the topic. |
