Laresse
Laresse is a
scientifically advanced gel created by FzioMed--a pioneer in
biomaterials--to quickly and easily correct fine lines and wrinkles.
It is the only
dermal filler made from a special blend of Its
absorbable
ultra-smooth texture results in a natural look and feel that can
quickly re-invigorate your appearance. Laresse is the first filler
of its kind, designed with you in mind.
Pure
Unlike many other fillers, Laresse is free of
animal and bacterial by-products and is totally
biocompatible with the human body. Plus, Laresse is not
chemically cross-linked, which eliminates the risk associated
with chemicals that may trigger inflammation and
hypersensitivity reactions.
Smooth
Hyaluronic acid fillers are composed of tiny gel
particles, which give them a granular, sand-like texture.
Laresse does not contain any gel particles, making it the purest and
smoothest filler available.
Immediate
Laresse is a non-surgical,
non-permanent treatment that's administered in your medical
practitioner's office. Improvement with Laresse is immediate, with
little to no down time. So you can schedule your procedure when it's
most convenient--whether it's at your lunch hour or before an
important event.
Lasting
Laresse is long-lasting, non-permanent enhancement. The results of a
single Laresse session can last as long as 6 months. Over time,
Laresse is naturally cleared from the body. Your practitioner can
work with you to determine the ideal "touch-up" schedule to maintain
your desired results.
Whether it's the simple
passage of time or damage from the sun's intense rays,
dermal (skin) fillers help turn back the clock and restore the youthful
look of years gone by.
Fine lines, wrinkles, and creases are the result of a loss of
collagen and elastin, your skin's natural support structure. Dermal
fillers temporarily restore the skin's internal structure, "filling in"
lines and wrinkles to quickly erase the signs of time.
But not all dermal fillers are alike. Until now, most conventional
dermal fillers were composed of
hyaluronic acid or collagen, which are derived from bacterial or animal
sources. Many of those products also contained
cross-linking chemicals.
Laresse provides the first non-animal, non-bacterial,
ultra-smooth, and
ultra-pure gel. Learn more about the
Laresse difference.
You can turn back the clock and restore the youthful look of years gone by.
The loss of collagen and elastin is seen in normal ageing, and wrinkles
occur earlier in life with unprotected exposure to the sun.
Ultraviolet exposure can damage the process of collagen production in the
skin and can attack elastin, limiting the skin's ability to "snap back" into
place. How wrinkled the skin becomes depends largely on how much sun
exposure a person has had.
Through a simple procedure, Laresse is injected under lines and wrinkles,
boosting your skin's natural structure to push up and smooth skin, quickly
restoring a more youthful appearance.
Having your dermal filler
treatment with Laresse temporarily replaces your skin's inner structure
to “fill in” lines, wrinkles, and deep creases to quickly erase the signs of
time.

ultra-smooth. It is the first
dermal filler of its kind designed with you in mind.
It's about purity
Laresse is the first
dermal filler that is non-animal and non-bacterial, reducing the
potential for a
hypersensitivity reaction. Plus, unlike other fillers, Laresse is
not
chemically cross-linked, which eliminates exposure to unnecessary
cross-linking chemicals.
It's about smooth results
Unlike
hyaluronic acid fillers, which are made of tiny gel
particles, Laresse is an
ultra-smooth gel that offers an elegant feel for smooth,
natural-looking results.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are made up of
varying sizes and amounts of non-uniform particles, resulting in a
granular, "sand-like" texture
How does Laresse correct fine lines and wrinkles?
A. A medical practitioner shapes your desired contours by injecting
Laresse under lines and wrinkles to smooth your skin and quickly restore
a more youthful appearance.
How long does treatment take?
A. Enhancement with Laresse is a completely non-surgical procedure done
in your medical practitioner's office with minimal time requirement.
There's no downtime, so you can schedule your procedure when it best
fits your needs.
Do I need to do anything before having the procedure?
A. Your medical practitioner will tell you exactly what needs to be done
prior to having your Laresse treatment. Because Laresse is free of
animal or bacterial by-products or
cross-linking chemicals, skin testing prior to treatment is not
needed.
Will treatment hurt?
A. Because Laresse is
ultra-smooth, it can be easily injected using a very small needle,
which reduces potential injection pain.
How quickly will I see improvement?
A. The improvement Laresse provides is immediate.
How long will the results last?
A. Studies show that the results of one Laresse session will last up to
6 months. Your practitioner can work with you to develop a touch-up
schedule to maintain your desired results.

Absorbable
Laresse is a bioabsorbable filler, which means it is not a
permanent implant. Laresse is gradually absorbed and naturally
cleared by the body over time
Animal or bacterial by-products
All Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid (HA) dermal fillers are made
from animal or bacterial sources. In the process of making these
fillers, some of the source material like bacterial endotoxins
and proteins are left behind.
Biomaterial
A biocompatible material (often called a "biomaterial") is a
synthetic or natural material that is suitable and safe for use
in the human body. Biomaterials play a major role in replacing
or improving function in nearly every body system.
Biocompatible
Capable of coexistence with living tissue or organisms without
causing a harmful effect to the body.
Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)
A naturally derived, biocompatible polysaccharide and a
component of Laresse Dermal Filler. CMC has been safely used for
decades in a wide variety of medical products, pharmaceuticals
and foods.
CE Mark approved
Laresse is approved for sale in the European Union (EU). The CE
Mark is given to products complying with the essential
requirements of the medical device directive. CE Marking on a
product indicates that product is approved for distribution in
the EU.
Chemical cross-linking
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is unstable in its natural state and will
rapidly clear from the dermis unless chemically cross-linked
during manufacturing. Cross-linking creates a new chemical bond
or link between molecules. The cross-linking chemicals used to
stabilize HA fillers may be toxic or carcinogenic and may
trigger an immunogenic response.
Collagen
A protein forming strong bundles of fibers and serving as
connective tissue between cells. Collagen is found in skin,
bone, cartilage, tendon, and other connective tissue.
Collagen-based dermal fillers are derived from animal (bovine or
avian) or human (cadaver) sources.
Dermal filler
A product that is injected under fine lines, wrinkles and folds
to smooth the skin and shape desired contours. An increasing
number of patients are looking to physicians to help them
achieve a more youthful appearance. A non-surgical, minimally
invasive method is the use of a dermal filler to correct the
appearance of facial lines and wrinkles.
Dermis
An inner layer of skin. The dermis is the connective tissue
layer of the skin located below the epidermis (outer layer) The
dermis contains nerve endings, sweat and sebaceous glands, and
blood and lymph vessels.
Hyaluronic acid (HA)
A polysaccharide that serves as a viscous, lubricating substance
in body tissue and joints. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers
are derived from either bacterial fermentation or animal
by-products, and therefore can contain residual animal proteins
or bacterial endotoxins, which may trigger local tissue
reactions. Natural hyaluronic acid is rapidly degraded by the
enzyme hyaluronidase, so it must be chemically cross-linked in
order to be useful as a dermal filler in skin.
Hypersensitivity reaction
An allergic response of the body's immune system when exposed to
a certain substance.
Laresse
Laresse is a non-permanent but long-lasting, ultra-smooth, pure
dermal filler made from bioabsorbable medical polymers, used for
correction of fine lines and wrinkles
Medical polymer
A high-quality, medical-grade material that is created from a
polymer. A polymer is a large, organic molecule that is formed
by combining many smaller molecules (monomers) in a regular
pattern.
Non-permanent filler
Temporary replacement of the skin's inner structure to fill in
lines, wrinkles and deep creases. . Most dermal fillers are
non-permanent. Desired results are maintained through regular
sessions.
Particles/micro-particles
Dermal fillers composed hyaluronic acids (HA) are made up of
small, non-uniform gel particles and fragments, giving them a
granular, sand-like texture which can lead to clumping. By
contrast, Laresse is scientifically-advanced, cohesive gel that
contains no particles.
Protein-free
Unlike other fillers, Laresse is not derived from bacterial or
animal sources; therefore, is completely free of bacterial and
animal proteins.
Soft tissue augmentation
A minimally invasive procedure in which a dermal filling product
(a.k.a. dermal filler) is used to correct skin contour defects
that have resulted from aging, photo-damage, trauma, scarring or
disease.
Ultra-pure
Laresse is derived from pure, absorbable medical polymers. It is
non-animal, non-bacterial, and is not chemically cross-linked.
Non-permanent Laresse gel is designed to surpass the limitations
of hylauronic acid and collagen fillers and represents a new
level of purity in dermal fillers.
Ultra-smooth
Laresse is a clear, colourless gel that is completely free of
particles, providing an ultra-smooth, elegant texture for a
natural look and feel
