Abstrakt: The article titled "A Two-Center, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of and Satisfaction with Different Methods of ART FILLER® UNIVERSAL Injection for Correcting Moderate to Severe Nasolabial Folds in Chinese Individuals," authored by Feng et al. in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, aims to compare two hyaluronic acid (HA) injection techniques for enhancing nasolabial folds: the conventional injection method and the ligament injection method. However, concerns have arisen regarding the methodology employed in this study. Having a precise understanding of the properties of the active substance is crucial for treatment standardization. It is imperative to comprehensively grasp the key characteristics of the employed HAs to determine any potential correlation between these properties, outcomes, and the likelihood of complications. Understanding HA's rheological properties, including viscosity, elasticity, and cohesiveness, is essential for selecting the most appropriate facial filler. While recognizing the authors' contributions, we firmly believe that further analysis should encompass these factors.Level of Evidence V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
