Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a medical implant for improving wrinkles. The implant for improving wrinkles according to the present invention comprises a xerogel which is formed in the shape of a wire and is subjected to compression and dehydration condensation from the hydrogel state, to a greater shrinkage ratio than the shrinkage ratio of simple dehydration condensation; and the xerogel is inserted into a human body and then absorbs water in the human body so as to revert to the hydrogel state prior to the compression. The present invention allows a wrinkle improving effect to be maintained over a long time while still having good compatibility with the human body since use is made of a material such as PVA or PVAc, and the invention allows improved ease of surgery since use is made of an implant in the shape of a wire that affords easy planning of surgery via an easy calculation of the volume or cross sectional area by which the implant expands, and at the same time has a small cross sectional area and is outstandingly able to maintain form.
