Artefill is available again. A new company took over it's distribution. It no longer is available in 1/2 cc syringes but is available in the 1cc syringe.

Artefill was not taken off the market but the company went bankrupt. I
have heard that another company bought the rights to Artefill and are
planning on marketing it again in the US. I have not heard anything as
far as a time line for the reintroduction into the US market.
