Before & after
|
The key ingredient in Redexis - positively charged Dextranomer beads - is made of biocompatible cross-linked glucose molecules.
These beads attract negatively charged glycosaminoglycan and elastin (soft tissue) to the injection site to help form new collagen. They then begin to bind together, forming a scaffold of new collagen.
This new collagen will stay at the injection site, providing natural augmentation long after the Hyaluronic acid has been broken down and absorbed. The end result is increased volume to the injection site and
a longer lasting and more natural look than traditional fillers.
|
FIRST INJECTION
New collagen is formed after treatment with Redexis. |
SECOND INJECTION
Follow up procedure after 2-3 weeks results in a significant increase in collagen formation. |

HISTOLOGY REPORT
Dextranomer Beads used in Redexis/Redexis Ultra
|
6 months: Dextranomer beads are 100% present. After 6 months the inter-material space is mainly composed of minute collagenous fiber bundles, varying from 1-10 µm in width. Capillaries and fibroblasts are also present. |
12 months: Dextranomer beads are 40% present. Extensive fibroblasts and collagen have formed in the inter-material space after 12 months. |
24 months: No beads are detectable. Complete absence of neutrophilic or lymphocytic infiltrate. Extensive formation of fibroblasts and collagen. |
