CollPlant Secures Korean Patent for Photocurable Dermal Filler Technology
CollPlant announced that the Korean Patent Office has allowed a patent application covering key aspects of the Company's photocurable dermal filler technology currently under development for the aesthetic market. The allowed patent application covers a polymerizable solution and its use in tissue augmentation. The Korean patent allowance follows the recent grant of a Japanese patent covering, among other things, a photocurable dermal filler kit and related polymerizable compositions comprising chemically modified rhCollagen for use in tissue augmentation. CollPlant's photocuring technology is further protected by granted patents in the United States, Europe, China, Brazil, Australia, and Israel, with additional applications pending in other territories.
