Course description

Non-hyaluronic acid (non-HA) dermal fillers are less commonly used than hyaluronic acid dermal fillers worldwide. They both have their pros and cons.

One of the advantages of non-HA dermal fillers is that their effects last longer, which means it is cheaper to maintain in the long run for the patient and have a lower side effect profile, when compared to HA dermal fillers.

Learn all about the different types of commonly available non-HA dermal fillers and their active ingredients in this course.
