What is Bio-Alcamid?
Bio-Alcamid is an injected endoprosthesis containing water. It is a great innovation for cosmetic medicine.
For the first time there is now a product made up almost completely of water (97%) which guarantees that the implant is very soft to touch. Indeed, once the implant has been injected it has almost exactly the same consistency as the surrounding tissue without producing unpleasant visual or tactile effects or seeming artificial.
What can Bio-Alcamid be used for?
Bio-Alcamid is used in cosmetic medicine and surgery to correct any type of anaesthetic problem. Bio-Alcamid is an Ideal implant for correcting lines and deep folds alongside the nose, filling the cheeks and changing the profile of the chin, etc.
Unlike other fillers, Bio-Alcamicl, can also be used to repair severe cosmetic defects, such as scars following trauma or operations, without there being any risk of side effects because of it is a substance which is extremely compatible with the human body.
Can Bio-Alcamid be used by everyone?
All the studies so far carried out have shown that Bio-Alcamid is a safe product and no tests of sensitivity to it are needed because it has never caused allergic reaction. Nevertheless, it is sensible to tell your doctor if you are particularly prone
to developing allergic reactions.
What happens afterwards?
Soon after the Bio-Alcamid has been implanted it becomes surrounded by a thin, natural covering. Bio-Alcamid is thus contained within this covering giving rise to a true endoprosthesis which can be removed easily and without trauma at any time. Immediately after the injection there may be some slight redness in the area but this disappears after a few minutes and you will be able to use any sort of make up without problems.
After a few days you will not see or feel anything strange in the area, given that 97% of Bio-Alcamid is made up of water. You will be left only with the pleasing cosmetic effect.
What are the any risks?
Years of rigorous and scrupulous clinical trials have allowed Bio-Alcamid to provide the strongest guarantees of safety, to the extent of receiving the CE mark from official European institutions which control the quality of products.
Clinical and laboratory tests on Bio-Alcamid have shown that it is not toxic, does not cause allergies, does not cause mutations, and is biocompatible, permanent, removable and physically and chemically stable.
Furthermore, Bio-Alcamid is radiotransparent and hypoechogenic.
There are important elements of aftercare, including avoiding UV rays, and all of these will be explained to you by your fully trained Cosmetic Surgery Advisor.
