1. Properties of PLLA materials

Since there is an asymmetric carbon atom in the lactic acid molecule, which has optical activity, polylactic acid can also be divided into dextral polylactic acid (PDLA), left-handed polylactic acid (PLLA), racemic polylactic acid (PDLLA), and non optical polylactic acid (Meso PLA). PLA is an important biodegradable polymer material, characterized by non-toxic, non irritating, biodegradable absorption, high strength, good plasticity, and easy processing and molding. The degradation cycle is 2~12 months.

2. Application of PLLA nanofibers in tissue engineering

PLLA is one of the first synthetic polymer materials recognized as suitable for tissue engineering due to its non-toxic, non irritating, biodegradable absorption and high strength. The nanofiber scaffold produced by the invention can be used for specific tissue engineering applications, including bone, cartilage, blood vessel and skin tissue regeneration.

(1) Bone tissue

In bone tissue engineering, electrospinning has been widely used to prepare nanofiber scaffolds, whose structure is close to the nano collagen fibers of bone. In actual preparation, electrospun PLLA scaffold will be prepared in combination with surface modification to guide cells to differentiate into bone lineage and achieve the best bone regeneration performance.

A research team successfully modified the surface of PLLA nanofibers prepared by electrospinning through the surface deposition of osteogenic ECM. These scaffolds were then used to detect the response of mouse bone marrow stromal cells after implantation of the scaffold. The results showed that compared with pure PLLA nanofibers, the mineral growth, ALP activity and cell morphology of the modified structure were in the best state.

(2) Cartilage tissue

Although PLLA nanofiber scaffolds have shown significant effects on cartilage repair, their fine fibers lead to limited bearing capacity.

PLLA nanofiber scaffold made by phase separation and pore forming agent leaching has been proved to be the optimal scheme for cartilage repair in vivo and in vitro. This is due to the high porosity and interoperability of these scaffolds, as well as their good degradability. In addition, the appropriate size of the scaffold hole also improves the functional characteristics of cartilage, thus providing some different solutions for the regeneration and repair of cartilage tissue.

(3) Vascular tissue

Recently, a research team has made multi-layer scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering: PCL, collagen and PLLA nanofibers are used to simulate the inner membrane, middle membrane and outer membrane respectively. These nanofibers were made into three-layer tubular scaffolds by continuous electrospinning, and cultured endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells for biological activity evaluation. The final evaluation experiment results showed that the collagen in the middle layer significantly improved the adhesion and proliferation of SMC, and the proliferation of endothelial cells increased significantly with culture, indicating the non cytotoxicity of the construct.

(4) Skin tissue

In dermal fibroblasts culture in vitro, the mixed scaffold induced higher cell seeding efficiency and improved fibroblast adhesion and proliferation compared with collagen sponge. On the other hand, in vivo wound healing evaluation showed that the composite scaffold healed faster and more effectively than the collagen scaffold. In most cases, PLLA, collagen and gelatin are often combined to produce nanofiber scaffolds, which show physical and biological characteristics matching with skin substitutes.

PLLA is also used to produce multilayer scaffolds that are very similar to natural skin structures. A research team has developed a new type of double-layer scaffold, which is composed of chitosan/PCL nanofiber pad on the surface and PLLA microporous disk on the bottom. In this work, keratinocytes and fibroblasts were cultured as epidermal equivalent and dermal equivalent respectively. The final results showed that the cell proliferation in the double-layer scaffold was higher than that in the single-layer CP nano pad and PLLA microdisk. In addition, the evaluation of genes and proteins showed that the wound healing was active, which again confirmed that the double-layer scaffold could provide a suitable microenvironment for stimulating skin regeneration.

POLYLACTIC ACID PROPERTIES, PRODUCTION

Poly lactic acid (PLA) is kind of biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable sources including corn starch (majorly in U.S & Canada), cassava roots, chips, starch (in Asia) or even from sugarcane (in the rest of the world).

What is Polylactic Acid (PLA)?

PLA material is different from the commonly available form of thermoplastic polymer materials. It is primarily derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugar cane.

Mostly plastics are derived through a common process termed as polymerization utilizing the non-renewable sources of energy. However, PLA plastic is a form of bioplastic derived from biomass.

It is a kind of biodegradable plastic with the characteristics similar to all other polymers such as Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene terephthalate or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

Poly lactic acid is applicable for a variety of uses including the production of plastic films, plastic bottles and medical devices (biodegradable in nature). It is even used 3D printing along with producing objects to hold hot liquids (e.g. cups).

Different Types of Polylactic acid

There are many types of polylactic acid available including Racemic PLLA (Poly-L-lactic Acid), Regular PLLA (Poly-L-lactic Acid), PDLA (Poly-D-lactic Acid), and PDLLA (Poly-DL-lactic Acid).

Each of them is slightly different in their characteristics but are produced in a similar way from renewable sources (lactic acid).

History of Polylactic Acid

PLA was first discovered by Wallace Carothers (who also invented nylon) in 1920. He was aiming to produce an environmentally-friendly plastic for DuPont. In initial days the commercial use of PLA material was very costly.

Further, in 1989 Dr. Patrick R. Gruber along with his wife Sally, discovered the process of producing this material by corn on his stove at home, which reduced the manufacturing cost.

Nowadays this is the most commonly used environment-friendly thermoplastic at the global level.

How is Polylactic Acid Produced?

This material is produced by usage of two basic monomers which are lactic acid and lactide (cyclic de-ester). Two different processes are involved in producing PLA are condensation and polymerization.

The most commonly used process is polymerization process. It is termed as ring-opening polymerization of lactide with various metal catalysts (tin octane) in solution, melt form or even as suspension. This process results in metal catalyst combining with lactide to form larger pla molecules.

The condensation process is very similar to the polymerization process. The principal difference in both the processes is temperature during the process and the by-products (condensates) released after the reaction.

This process is carried out at less than 200°C, as above this temperature entropically favored lactide is generated. At initial level of the process lactic acid is first oligomerized to PLA oligomers. Afterwards, poly-condensation is done in melt or solution where short oligomers combine and produce high molecular weight PLA.

Properties of Polylactic Acid

PLA plastic biodegradable nature and suiting optical, physical and chemical properties prove it to be an ideal choice of material for a number of applications including dyeing for textiles, packaging, medical devices (stents & sutures) even for diapers and many others.

Basic Properties Include:

**T H R E A D L I F T** Theadlifting is an awesome option for those of you who want to LIFT without needing the extra volume! Threadlifting is another non-surgical solution to enhance your beauty by lifting areas that have descended due to the natural aging process. Most threads are made of PLLA (polylactic acid) or PDO (polydiaxanone) which are complex sugar compounds that the body slowly dissolves over time. The results are immediate, and they continue to improve as the body produces its own collagen to surround the inserted threads. It usually takes 6-8 months for the threads to fully dissolve, but the lift remains for an average of 12 months due to new collagen formation. Although threadlifting does not replace surgery, it is a great noninvasive alternative with minimal discomfort and downtime!!

What is Sculptra?

If you are over the age of 45, Sculptra is definitely a treatment that will be recommended for you by Gita Izadi, NP here at Neu Look Med Spa. But it can be confusing to understand what this product really is and what it can do. According to Skintour.com “Sculptra is an injectable liquid used to add volume to areas of the face to create a soft, natural, more youthful recontouring of the face. It builds your own collagen while it gradually disappears. When done well, it doesn’t have that “over stuffed” look that is all too common with other injectables”.

Sculptra Treatment

It is most commonly used to add volume to hollow cheeks, add definition to the jawline, and smooth nasal labial folds. It also can be used to get rid of wrinkles on the chest, knees, and elbows. But what makes this injectable unique? Sculptra (generic name is “poly-L-lactic acid” or PLLA) is a synthetic of lactic acid. Lactic acid is made in our muscles after exercise. Polylactic acid is lactic acid molecules stuck together in strings (a polymer). It is made in a laboratory and contains no animal products and no human DNA. It very gradually disappears by the action of your own cell enzymes” states Skintour.com. Many patients want a very gradual change when getting injectable treatments, and Sculptra is perfect for them. On average 3 treatments of 1-2 vials are needed about 5-10 weeks apart for the initial correction of volume loss. After that, one treatment per year will maintain the results. Sculptra lasts about 2 years verses many injectables that only last 6-12 months. Another treatment that Neu Look Med Spa offers is Buttock Augmentation with Sculptra. Its a great non surgical way to lift and contour your bum. Due to the area being larger, most patients will need at least 10-15 Vials in the first treatment and may need more depending on the look they want to achieve. But again this procedure can last for 2 years, which makes it a smart investment. Gita Izadi welcomes you to come in for a complimentary consultation to see if this treatment is right for you!
