ABOUT HYALURONIC ACID FILLERS
HA injections are an attractive treatment option to address age-related changes in skin quality and appearance. Hyaluronic acid can be injected into our skin to fill and plump specific areas. Hyaluronic acid injections are applied to:
• Reduce wrinkles
• Model cheeks
• Correct facial lines and lip shape
• Lessen the appearance of sagging
• Improve elasticity and hydration of facial, hand, neck and neckline skin
THE PROCESS
• After cleansing the injection site with an antibacterial agent, a topical anaesthetic may be used to prevent pain. In some cases, the HA dermal filler contains an anaesthetic.
• During the injection, small amounts of HA are injected into the superficial or deep layers of our skin.
• After the HA injection, the practitioner massages the treated areas to achieve an optimum distribution of the injected filler.
• The procedure usually lasts less than 30 minutes, depending on the area to be treated.
