In the latest issue of “New Beauty Magazine” pg 34 they discuss a New Cosmetic Surgery Glue called “BioGlue” which just received a CE Mark(1) in Europe. This glue can be used in reconstrucive plastic surgery and browlifts it is said to have more “tensile strength” than most internal glues such as “Mastisol (R) and Dermabond (R)”

Hopefully it will be approved for use in the US for cosmetic purposes – it is currently being used for cardiac purposes.
