PLLA (Poly-L-Lactic Acid) is a synthetic polymer that is biodegradable and absorbable by the body. It is used in the field of medicine and aesthetics for various purposes such as skin renewal, volume gain and wrinkle treatment. PLLA stimulates collagen production, especially when injected under the skin, making the skin look fuller, tighter and younger.
