Mechanism Of Action:
Mechanism of action action principally linked to the hydrophilic properties of the agent which make the gel soluble and who generates the migration of the water from the periphery of the disc (including hernia) towards his center.
The not soluble gel in the presence of water, precipitates and settles in the micro infractions of the disc to create so a «flexible soft prosthesis».
