摘　　要：Injectable filling material is a simple and efficient method for soft tissues reconstruction and is extremely popular in not only plastic surgery but also cosmetic industry.However,there is a lack of soft tissue fillers with perfect performance on the market currently.Here,we constructed a new microsphere/hydrogel composite and evaluated its potential as a candidate for soft tissue augmentation.mPEG-PDLLA micro-spheres were prepared by utilizing a SPG membrane emulsifier which endowed microspheres with good sphericity and particle size uniformity.PDLLA-PEG-PDLLA hydrogel which shared the same component with the mPEG-PDLLA copolymer acted as a carrier and fixed the microspheres at the injected sites.The mPEG-PDLLA microsphere/PDLLA-PEG-PDLLA hydrogel composite was flowable in room temperature and transformed into gel after being heated to body temperature.This feature is convenient for subcutaneous filling.In vivo assessment on mice showed good safety profile of the composite.Moreover,the density of collagen fibers increased over 13 weeks.Overall,this biocompatible microsphere/hydrogel composite involves simple component and no extra crosslinking agents,and has the ability to stimulate collagen production,thus,may be a candidate for soft tissue augmentation.
