Hyaluron treatment

The natural ageing process leads to a loss of volume under the facial skin. Treatment with hyaluronic acid replenishes this volume, which leads to a tightening of the skin. While fine wrinkles require finely dispersible filling materials, deep wrinkles with volume defects require the use of restorative materials to visibly reduce wrinkles. As a matter of principle, we only use degradable filling materials, i.e. in our practice we do not use implants or other materials that remain in the body for longer. Degradable filling materials include hyaluronic acid, an endogenous substance that can also be produced biotechnologically and is very well tolerated.

A wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid is suitable for patients who have the following problems or wishes:

Wrinkles and fine lines. Hyaluronic acid can be used to reduce wrinkles and fine lines on the face

Volume loss. As we age, the skin loses volume, which can lead to sagging cheeks and sunken cheeks. Hyaluronic acid can be used to restore lost volume.

Lip augmentation. A common area of application is lip augmentation for more volume and definition.

General skin improvement. People seeking overall skin improvement can benefit from hyaluronic acid treatments as they can moisturize the skin and give it a fresher appearance (mesotherapy).

Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid is carried out by injecting the hyaluronic acid into the skin or the underlying tissue.

Preliminary consultation. Before the treatment begins, we discuss the patient's specific needs, medical history and expectations. We also provide information about possible risks and side effects.

Cleaning and anesthesia. The areas to be treated are cleaned, and in some cases an anesthetic gel may be applied to the skin to increase comfort during the injection.

Hyaluronic acid injection: Hyaluronic acid is injected into the predetermined areas of the skin or subcutaneous tissue using a fine needle. The injections are precisely placed to achieve the desired result. The patient may feel a slight pressure sensation or a short sting.

Sculpting and massage. After the injection, the treated areas can be lightly massaged or sculpted to ensure that the gel is evenly distributed and the desired result is achieved.

Review and aftercare. After the treatment, the results are checked and the patient is given instructions for aftercare. This includes, for example, avoiding pressure on the treated areas.

Hyaluronic acid works by binding water and adding volume, resulting in a smoothing of wrinkles and an improvement in skin volume. The results are usually visible immediately and the effect lasts for several months depending on the product and individual factors. As hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the body, it is generally well tolerated. It is important that the treatment is carried out by a qualified and experienced specialist in order to achieve optimal results and minimize potential risks.

Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid has become very popular in recent years for a number of reasons:

Immediate results. Hyaluronic acid injections usually lead to immediately visible results. Patients can notice a significant smoothing of wrinkles and lines as well as an improvement in skin volume immediately after treatment.

Minimal downtime. Compared to more invasive procedures, such as surgical facelifts, wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid usually requires no or minimal downtime. Patients can often return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.

Natural look. Hyaluronic acid is well accepted by the body because it is a natural component of the skin. Therefore, the results tend to look very natural and do not create the "mask-like" appearance that can occur with some other treatments.

Improving skin texture and hydration. Hyaluronic acid has the ability to bind water, resulting in improved skin hydration and texture. This can help to make the skin look healthier and more radiant overall.

Customizable treatment: Hyaluronic acid products come in a variety of types and densities, which allows us to tailor the treatment to your exact needs.

Comparatively low risks and side effects. In general, side effects from hyaluronic acid injections are minor and temporary. Redness, slight swelling or bruising may occur after treatment, but usually disappear quickly.

Short treatment time. Hyaluronic acid treatment does not usually take long, often only around 20-30 minutes, depending on the number of areas injected.

Although wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid is generally considered safe, risks and side effects can occur as with any medical procedure.

Redness, swelling and bruising: After the injection, temporary redness, swelling or bruising may occur at the injection sites. This is usually mild and disappears within a few days.

Sensitivity and pain. Some patients may experience slight tenderness or pain in the treated area after treatment. This is usually temporary and will subside on its own.

Asymmetry or irregularities. There is a risk that the injections may cause asymmetry or irregularities in the skin. This may be due to improper injection technique or uneven distribution of the hyaluronic acid.

Infections. Although infections are rare, there is a risk of infection with every injection. Careful sterile technique by the doctor minimizes this risk.

Allergic reactions. Although hyaluronic acid is a substance that occurs naturally in the body, some people may have allergic reactions to certain products or additives in the injections. However, this is rare.

Nodule formation or hardening. In some cases, nodules or hardening may occur at the injection sites. This can be caused by the accumulation of hyaluronic acid or a local tissue reaction.

In general, these risks are usually low and most side effects are temporary. However, if unusual symptoms occur after treatment, it is advisable to consult a doctor immediately.
