DERMAL FILLERS

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.
