Private practice, Stony Brook, NY, USA.
Background: Microfocused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) and hyperdilute calcium hydroxylapatite-carboxymethylcellulose (CaHA-CMC) dermal injections are effective for improving skin laxity in the lower face and submentum by stimulating neocollagenesis and neoelastogenesis.
Objectives: Combining these treatments in an optimal order may inform best practices in aesthetic dermatology. Despite their frequent concurrent use, no study has evaluated the impact of treatment order.

Background: The perioral region plays a crucial role in facial aesthetics and is susceptible to age-related changes, such as wrinkles and fine lines due to its dynamic nature. Type I collagen is crucial in providing structural integrity and resilience to the skin. Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA-CMC) is a widely used dermal filler whose particles stimulate fibroblastic responses within the skin.

Background: Calcium hydroxylapatite-carboxymethylcellulose (CaHA-CMC) injectables have emerged as dual-purpose fillers with bioregenerative and direct filling capabilities.
Aims: This study investigates the rheological properties of CaHA-CMC and its CMC carrier gel at various dilutions.
Methods: The storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G″), complex viscosity (η*), loss factor (tan δ), cohesivity, and extrusion force were evaluated for a range of CaHA-CMC aqueous dilutions with an oscillatory rheometer, drop weight testing, and force analysis, respectively.

Full facial rejuvenation with multi-modal cosmetic treatments can improve quality of life, leading to improvement in confidence and psychological function. These combination treatments are frequently administered at the same or sequential sessions and include neuromodulators and fillers. In patients with significant recent weight loss and other medical comorbidities, these treatments can help restore self-confidence and provide the encouragement they need to continue treatment for their comorbidities.
