ABOUT HYALURONIC ACID
Hyaluronic acid attracts and binds water, helping to hydrate the skin and maintain its volume and density.
When injected as a dermal filler, it integrates into your skin, attracting water molecules and providing long-lasting hydration. It also stimulates collagen production, helping to improve elasticity. By providing essential hydration and promoting collagen production, hyaluronic acid helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, define facial contours, and create a youthful appearance.
Hyaluronic acid comes in different forms and molecular weights, each suited to specific treatment areas and goals. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is typically used in skin boosters to hydrate the skin and improve its texture and tone. High molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which has a denser structure, is used in dermal fillers to add volume and smooth out deeper wrinkles and folds.
Hyaluronic acid offers a multitude of benefits. This miraculous treatment can effectively eliminate wrinkles and fine lines like nasolabial folds and marionette lines and enhance volume in the cheeks and lips. Not only does it perfectly define the jawline, but it also refreshes the face’s shape and contour altogether. It can also hydrate the skin, improve its elasticity and firmness, and create a youthful, radiant glow.
While hyaluronic acid treatments are generally safe, they can cause side effects like swelling, redness, and bruising at the injection site. However, these effects are usually temporary and resolve on their own.
Hyaluronic acid treatments can be effective for anywhere from 6 to 18 months, depending on relevant factors like the area treated and the specific product used. Over time, the body gradually absorbs the hyaluronic acid, so repeat treatments are necessary to maintain the results.
The ideal type of hyaluronic acid for you depends on your skin’s condition, treatment goals, and preferences. Our doctors can suggest the right kind of hyaluronic acid and treatment approach based on your specific requirements. At our free consultation, you can ask all your questions and get expert guidance to help you put your best skin forward.
There are various techniques for administering hyaluronic acid, depending on the treatment area and desired outcome. These include using either a needle or cannula, depending on the treatment area.
YOUR HYALURONIC ACID TREATMENT JOURNEY
The first step in any hyaluronic acid treatment is a comprehensive consultation. During this session, our doctors will assess your skin condition, listen to your concerns and treatment goals, and propose a tailored treatment plan.
To ensure a comfortable experience, a topical anaesthetic cream is typically applied before the treatment. In addition, certain kinds of hyaluronic acid fillers contain a local anaesthetic that further minimises discomfort during the procedure.
The process of hyaluronic acid treatment entails the injection of the product into the dermis using a fine needle or cannula. Depending on the specific type of hyaluronic acid being used and the area being treated, the procedure may vary. However, the result remains the same - a revitalized and youthful second layer of skin. Treatments are usually quick and can often be completed in less than an hour.
After the treatment, you may return to your daily activities immediately, with no downtime.
