Compared with tissue without implanted material, the density of the collagen fiber network increased by 79.2% at 12 months, after which it began to decline. This result was consistent with clinical observations. Crucially, the structure and organization of the regenerated collagen did not differ significantly from native tissue.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PCL fillers provide immediate volumization along with durable, physiologically integrated tissue regeneration, proving sustained neocollagenesis over a two-year period.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/asj\/sjag208","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,20]],"date-time":"2026-09-20T11:24:14Z","timestamp":1789903454000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Long-Term Biostimulatory Efficacy of Polycaprolactone Facial Fillers: A Two-Year Quantitative Assessment of Neocollagenesis Using Second-Harmonic Generation Microscopy"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"given":"Zhang","family":"shu Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The First A\ufb03liated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University , Guangzhou ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wei","family":"Xiao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hangzhou Yixing Medical Cosmetology Hospital , Hangzhou ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xia","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sichuan Huamei Zixin Plastic Surgery Hospital , Chengdu Sichuan ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hsiang I","family":"Chu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Juanya Medical Aesthetic Clinic , Shanghai ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shuhan","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shenzhen Institute for Drug Control (Shenzhen Testing Center of Medical Devices) , Shenzhen ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lixin","family":"Yuan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shenzhen Institute for Drug Control (Shenzhen Testing Center of Medical Devices) , Shenzhen ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hongjiang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shenzhen Institute for Drug Control (Shenzhen Testing Center of Medical Devices) , Shenzhen ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Huaqian","family":"Long","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Emergent Soft Matter, South China University of Technology , Guangzhou ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satoshi","family":"Aya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Emergent Soft Matter, South China University of Technology , Guangzhou ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chen","family":"Lai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biomedical engineering center, Peking University Shenzhen institute , Shenzhen ,","place":["China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,22]]},"container-title":["Aesthetic Surgery Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/asj\/advance-article-pdf\/doi\/10.1093\/asj\/sjag208\/71292317\/sjag208.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"am","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/asj\/advance-article-pdf\/doi\/10.1093\/asj\/sjag208\/71292317\/sjag208.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,22]],"date-time":"2026-09-22T00:02:06Z","timestamp":1790035326000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/asj\/advance-article\/doi\/10.1093\/asj\/sjag208\/8825343"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,22]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/asj\/sjag208","relation":{},"ISSN":["1090-820X","1527-330X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1090-820X","type":"print"},{"value":"1527-330X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,22]]},"article-number":"sjag208"}}
