“…Although there is no preferred strategy in dentistry regarding the use of Botox and dermal fillers such as HA, as it depends on the specific treatment goals and the patient's needs, the latter is one of the most popular aesthetic procedures performed in the USA, mainly aiming to mitigate wrinkles and folds around the mouth, at the jawline, and at the chin, which occur due to facial aging [21], and it is also considered an increasingly popular facial rejuvenation modality (the second most common non-surgical aesthetic procedure performed) [7]. HA has unique physicochemical properties (hygroscopicity and viscoelasticity) and distinctive biological functions [20], improving the appearance of the lips and filling wrinkles, creases, and areas that have lost volume, such as the perioral and periorbital regions, helping to restore desired facial contours [6,7,22].…”

Aging can have a negative impact on the perioral region, affecting both appearance and self-esteem. Dentists offer various treatment options to address these changes, using surgical and non-surgical techniques. One such technique is facial filling with hyaluronic acid, a minimally invasive approach to improve the perioral region’s function and aesthetics and counteract aging effects. A literature review was conducted to collect scientific evidence on the subject, utilizing the mnemonic PI(C)O to refine the research question. The search for articles was accomplished on the EBSCOhost platform, specifically targeting those published between January 2009 and April 2023 in MEDLINE Complete, CINAHL Complete, and MedicLatina databases. Sixteen articles were carefully chosen, and the guidelines outlined in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) method were followed throughout the process. The major findings reported in the selected articles suggest that using hyaluronic acid as a mechanism to mitigate the effects of face lower third aging following orofacial harmonization procedures in dentistry offers significant benefits to patients, improving the aesthetic appearance of the face, increasing patients’ self-esteem and satisfaction, and providing a better quality of life. Nevertheless, a weak evidence level was found in the selected articles due to methodological issues, highlighting the need to increase the methodological quality of future studies.

BackgroundInjectable fillers for soft tissue augmentation stand out as one of the most favored procedures in the field of aesthetic medicine, especially in addressing the clinical signs of skin aging. Among soft tissue fillers, non‐permanent fillers have been safely used in numerous medical applications for several decades.AimsThe aim of this post‐market observational, open‐label, uncontrolled, multicentered, prospective study (PMS) was to evaluate the effects of an injectable poly‐L‐lactic acid‐based collagen stimulator (Lanluma®, the study product).Participants/MethodsThis analysis is based on the clinical outcomes data (safety and effectiveness) collected from investigators and participants between the first injection (T0, September 2022) and 9 months thereafter (T3, June 2023) in the treatment of five body‐contouring areas.ResultsOverall, 70 participants had 99 treatment sessions of the neck (31%), upper arm (20%), hand (17%), thigh (16%) and décolleté (15%). Lumps (neck, upper arm, hand) and nodules (neck, hand, thigh) were the most frequent adverse events (AEs) reported by investigators. All were treatment related. None were serious, severe or fatal. No AEs were reported following treatment of the décolleté. Both investigators and participants reported high levels of satisfaction during the nine‐month follow‐up period with the treatments in five body areas.ConclusionsThese positive clinical outcomes can be attributed to a proper implementation of best practices and recommendations, and the rheological properties of the study product. This 9‐month follow‐up analysis should be reconsidered in light of the study's objectives for the final analysis at the 25‐month follow‐up.
