Aqtis Medical products and their applications
One of Aqtis Medical’s best-known brands is Ellanse, a collection of dermal fillers used in cosmetic surgery and aesthetic medicine. Manufactured using the special STAT technology developed by Aqtis Medical, Ellanse fillers are designed to slow down the aging process in the skin by acting as a biostimulator of collagen production. Ellanse products contain synthetic polycaprolactone (PCL) and carboxymethyl cellulose and are available in 4 formulations: S, M, L, and E, with results lasting up to 18-24 months.
Ellanse fillers are manufactured in compliance with the highest quality standards for implantable medical devices. Ellanse’s efficacy and great safety profile have been continuously shown since its launch in 2009, not only in clinical studies and vigilance surveys, but also in everyday clinical practice.
