Announcing a higher level of precision and control.

DXL™ Gives Puragen™ New Advantages.

• Puragen has a higher defense against the body’s natural tendency to break down a foreign substance.
  
  
• DXL technology complements the classic single cross-linking between ether bonds in hyaluronic molecules with an additional bond. This additional ester bond, which is unique among all HA formulas, creates a tightly knit network with significant benefits.

Particle Size Distribution

A New Standard for HA. Consistency and Control.

• A consistent, narrow distribution of particles (around 200 μm) eliminates very large and very small particles, resulting in smooth flow through the syringe and a major reduction in the free HA (non cross-linked HA) required by other fillers for lubrication.
  
  
• Puragen’s consistency is so even, it flows with ease through a 30 gauge needle, creating a higher level of precision and control. And patients enjoy the persistent benefits of DXL with a smoother, gentler injection.

Less Free HA Gives You More of What You’re Looking For.

• Puragen has the lowest incidence of free HA (non cross-linked HA) found in any filler (6% versus other fillers that contain up to 20%).
  
  
• Free HA does not contribute to clinical effectiveness and is absorbed by the body within 72 hours post injection.
  
  

Note: Enzymatic exposure higher than physiological conditions.

• As a result, other HA fillers can lose up to 20% of volume in the first two weeks. Puragen loses a mere 6%.
  
  
• Due to Puragen’s low incidence of free HA, touch-ups are rarely necessary.

Endurance Meets Exactness.

Puragen’s uniquely modified HA molecules form a small-particle, tight-mesh gel network that responds to the special needs of dynamic areas while resisting migration and degradation. By providing particle consistency, Mentor has created a highly durable HA filler with lower extrusion force. Simply put, lower trauma with lasting results.

Puragen’s tight mesh gel network. The small particle gel network reduces the open space that other, large particle, HA fillers have. There is more active HA, or cross-linked gel, in a given volume than with larger particle HA fillers. Smaller particles enable smoother contours after injection and less free HA (non cross-linked HA) is required for lubrication. DXL ensures that these smaller particles last as long as other leading large particle fillers.
