Hyaluronic Acid injections or Dermal Fillers

Hyaluronic acid is a natural molecule found in the skin, at the level of the derma which is responsible to a large extent for dehydration, Tonicity and the elasticity of the skin; it is found in large quantity at birth and diminishes with time.

The diminution of hyaluronic acid with aging is to a very large extent responsible for dehydration of the skin, the appearance of wrinkles and little wrinkles at the lips, cheeks, nasal furrows and pleats/fold of bitterness. The hyaluronic acid injection captures the water and thus ensures a correction of the lost volume due to aging.

Benefit of hyaluronic acid :

• It is a natural product.
• It doesn’t have an animal origin.
• It is totally absorbable.
• The results are visible as soon as the injection is carried out.
• No social eviction.

What are the wrinkles to be treated by a hyaluronic acid injection?

As we have seen with the BOTOX*, which is the way to treat the wrinkles of the forehead, the crow’s foot, hyaluronic acid is the is the ideal treatment for the lower part of the face: “nasal-genial” furrows, bitterness pleats, angle of the mouth, wrinkles of the lips (solar folded). Hyaluronic acid is an excellent volume indicator for the palms, the lips, the cheeks and the valley of tears.

How is a session of hyaluronic acid injection conducted?

The injection is administered under small partial anesthesia (with cream for example) aand it not very painful. The application of ice at the end of the treatment prevents the appearance of ecchymoses. The correction is instantaneous and is final after two to three days. Make-up is tolerated as soon as the session is over, and there is no social eviction.

The effect of hyaluronic acid filling lasts 8 to 12 months depending on the zones, their magnitude, the nature of the skin and the life hygiene (tobacco, alcohol, sun).

The hyaluronic acid injection may be associated with BOTOX® injections for the wrinkles at the upper part of the face: forehead, crow’s foot, lion’s wrinkles. Indeed, aging of the face is global and the achieved result is all the more pertinent as it associates the treatment of different esthetic zones of the face.
