There is a need in medicine for safer, more effective biomaterials for use in tissue reconstruction.
Current injectable implants and fillers are limited in their ability to immediately correct contour defects, as well as in the duration of the effect.
Cellulora's™ product pipeline brings together natural plant-based ingredients and amazing chemistry to produce products that are safe and effective long-term implants.
OUR SCIENCE
Home: Features
Cellulora™ is based on methylcellulose, a derivative of the plant polysaccharide cellulose, which is modified to achieve stable material properties that match native soft-tissue, while permitting reversibility. Cellulora's™ two-component methylcellulose-based filler forms a covalently crosslinked hydrogel upon injection.
Methylcellulose is an FDA-approved, biocompatible, plant-based material used for a number of indications ranging from drug delivery to wound healing.
Unlike other natural long-term fillers that are prone to breakdown via enzymes present in the body, methylcellulose cannot be degraded naturally due to a lack of the cellulase enzyme in humans. This creates a stable, low viscosity, volumizing material that can maintain shape and functional properties over a long duration.
Properties such as viscosity and stiffness can be tuned for various applications and anatomical locations.
Overall, long-term stability, immediate tissue bulking effect and selective reversibility are features that distinguish this product from others on the market.
