Advancing the Science of Silk

Sofregen is applying its expertise in silk protein science to develop a range of new products — from advanced versions of our proven biological scaffold to the next generation of aesthetic injectables. We are well into the development of a technology that transforms silk protein fibers into porous silk protein particles for delivery through a needle.

In Development

Injectable fillers for facial and body aesthetics

Biological scaffolds to expand capabilities:

  • New products for complex soft tissue support applications

  • Faster biomaterial degradation calibrated to tissue ingrowth

These particles have been engineered to match the biomechanics of soft tissue, making them the ideal foundation for injectable fillers. In clinical practice, these silk particles will deliver an immediate lift to skin and soft tissue, and a more sustainable result through its unique mode of action.
