Note: Rejuran (polynucleotide / salmon-DNA skin booster) is a regenerative injectable, NOT a dermal filler. phADM boosters — RE2O (Elravie Re2O), JuveaCell and MegaFill, particulated human acellular dermal matrix — are likewise regenerative injectables, NOT dermal fillers, are not TFDA-approved in Taiwan, and are an emerging complication source. Permanent injectables such as PAAG / Aquamid and liquid silicone are banned or discontinued in many markets and are a major complication source.
