Is Ellanse safe?

Ellansé™ is totally biocompatible and biodegradable. It is injected into the skin via needle/ cannula.

When the CMC is absorbed, the PCL component will start stimulating collagen. After the PCL component has been absorbed, collagen stimulation will STILL take place, hence improving the skin texture over time.
