Where can hydroxyapatite be used?
Facial augmentation with hydroxyapatite has been used for the following corrections: • Cheek • Chin • Jaw • Nose • Browbone Solid hydroxyapatite can be carved and trimmed to the requirements of the correction. Because bone and soft tissue growth into the pores of the implant occurs quickly after implantation, the implant is securely held in place. Over time the implant is partially resorbed and replaced by natural bone.
