ActivaPin™ is made of PLGA** and biodegrades in the body safely and in a controlled manner within approximately two years.
Self-Locking™ technology - the diameter of the implant expand. *
** PLGA - poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), optimal combination with a long history of safe medical use and the degradation by hydrolysis into alpha-hydroxy acids that are metabolized by the body.
