Efficacy of Lifting Threads Composed of Poly(L‐Lactide‐Co‐ε‐Caprolactone) Copolymers Coated With Hyaluronic Acid: A Long‐Term Study on Biorevitalizing Properties in Skin Remodeling
Our study investigated the effects of two types of bioabsorbable threads, P(LA/CL) and P(LA/CL)-HA, on skin remodeling over 180 days in a porcine model. These results highlight the significant role of thread composition in tissue remodeling and suggest that incorporating HA could optimize therapeutic and aesthetic outcomes. Further clinical research is necessary to confirm these findings in human subjects.
