Abstract
Introduction: Dermal fillers industry is ever-expanding. Tens, if not hundreds, of brands are available to purchase legally or illegally. I have attempted in this paper to develop a scoring system for Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers that makes an injector’s verdict objective, fair and unbiased, and injection experience safer. Theoretically speaking, the worst filler will have, at least, ᆠ score and the best will have a score of 34 points. Some scoring points do not exist in any filler, suggesting hints to improve all brands. Objectives: To build a Hyaluronic acid dermal filler scoring system that deals with what the injector can easily read, see or experience on their own without using sophisticated technologies or the need to understand or estimate the physics or the chemistry behind the filler. Using a scoring system that depends more on objective than subjective findings will be easy and unbiased to apply, more practical. The scoring system structure should be holistic rather than being only results centered and more focused on safety.

Summary
Speaking only about the major dermal filler manufacturers, the global dermal fillers market size was valued at USD 3.47 Billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 6.3 Billion by 2026. Hyaluronic acid takes the biggest share of the dermal filler market that is estimated by (77.2%) [1]. There are tens, maybe hundreds, of other less known Hyaluronic acid dermal filler brands worldwide produced by national, local or wholesale manufacturers, and sold through distributors, third parties or online to find their way sometimes to customers in countries even with strict pharmaceutical regulations. When injectors are offered Hyaluronic acid dermal filler brands that they have never heard of to try, here comes the need for a scoring system. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are injected all over the world in other countries that have their own regulating authorities. Growing manufacturers may be unfairly judged despite having a considerably good Hyaluronic acid filler [6]
