Q-Med develops, produces, markets and sells implants for aesthetic and medical use. All products are based on the company’s patented NASHA™ technology.
Patented technology
If you injected hyaluronic acid in its natural form into the body, it would break down in just a few days, and any treatment benefit would be very short-lived. The unique stabilization process patented by Q-Med and used in the manufacture of Restylane results in a hyaluronic acid gel which closely resembles the body’s own hyaluronic acid. This provides long-lasting treatment benefits and minimises the risk of a skin reaction.
