Abstract
After the introduction of facial aesthetic injectables with botulinum toxin (BoNt) in the first half of the 1990s and nonanimal-based hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers in 1996, the interest for minimally invasive procedures has exploded. With this background, it is not surprising that the interest for body contouring with HA has also attracted a lot of interest. The effectiveness and safety for breast augmentation, buttock augmentation and treatment for pectus excavatum has been extensively investigated and published. Generally, patient satisfaction has been high and complications low. Due to several factors such as limited duration and unfavorable cost, HA fillers have been withdrawn from the market. With the development of new HA products, it is possible that its use for body contouring will be reintroduced and popular in the future.
