How does it work?
Hydroxyapatite is renowned for its exceptional biocompatibility and osteostimulative properties, owing to its resemblance to the mineral composition of our bones. When implanted in areas of damaged bone, bone substitutes containing hydroxyapatite seamlessly integrate, easily promoting the formation and growth of new bone tissue.
This results in the complete reconstruction of the bone, restoring it to its native state. Hydroxyapatite is also able to promote cell proliferation and collagen synthesis in dermal fillers for skin applications – and other benefits yet to be explored!
