Hylaform Plus was developed and is manufactured by Genzyme Corporation. Inamed is Genzyme's exclusive worldwide marketing and distribution partner for Hylaform Plus.
Hylaform Plus is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, viscoelastic, clear, colorless, transparent gel implant composed of cross-linked molecules of hyaluronan. Hyaluronan is a naturally occurring polysaccharide of the intercellular matrix in human tissues, including skin.
Hylaform Plus is injected into the dermal tissue to provide a space-occupying viscoelastic supplement for the intercellular matrix of the connective tissue. This viscosupplementation or augmentation of the dermal tissue can result in the correction of skin contour deformities caused by wrinkles or folds.
