Aliaxin® EV Essential Volume is a reabsorbable medical device (physiological, apyrogenous sterile gel) to be used as a filler for the correction of deep facial cutaneous sagging and to increase volume. The principle component is crosslinked Hyaluronic Acid.

Aliaxin® EV Essential Volume is an injectable medical device conforming to the Dir. 93/42/CEE MOD, indicated for the treatment of imperfections in the following areas of the face:

• nasolabial folds
• post-traumatic and acne scars
• areas of the face which require enrichment of the facial tissue (cheeks, chin, cheekbones) with temporary volumetric increase through growth of the soft tissues

The outcome of the treatment depends on the type of skin and the nature of the imperfection: the less evident the imperfection, the better the result

Aliaxin® EV Essential Volume must be injected into the sub-cutaneous tissue for the supplementation of the extra-cellular root and the volumetric increase of the tissue, that is, for the treatment of cutaneous depressions caused by wrinkles, scarring, and volume loss.

Contraindications

Aliaxin® EV Essential Volume must not be used on patients affected by:

• infective or inflammatory processes near the area of intervention
• ongoing cutaneous allergies
• known hypersensitivity to cheloids
• allergy to the components
• immune system illnesses
• serious pathological skin conditions
• problems with coagulation or anti-coagulating therapies in progress

Close to treatment, the patient should avoid consumption of substances which act on blood fluidity (aspirin, NSAID, Vitamin E), to minimize the possibility of bruising or bleeding of the injected areas. Aliaxin® EV Essential Volume may not be implemented in areas where there are mammary, tendon, bone, or muscular implants present.

After-care

Following the treatment, and until the complete absorption of swelling and reddening, the implanted areas must not be exposed to makeup, excessive heat (sun, UV tanning sessions, or laser), or intense cold. After use, needles and syringes must be disposed of according to the procedures indicated for hospital waste.
