Hyaluronic acid filler treatment

Hyaluronic acid filler treatment

What does a hyaluronic acid filler entail?

Hyaluronic acid is a visco-elastic gel; a natural product based on the polysaccharide hyaluronan.

Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the human body and ensures, among other things, that the skin remains moist and elastic. When the hyaluronic acid is broken down by the body, wrinkles begin to appear. The natural breakdown of our hyaluronic acid in the body starts from about the age of 25. With a filler treatment, the natural hyaluronic acid can be replaced and supplemented. It forms subcutaneous cushions, which makes wrinkles, grooves and sagging disappear. There are different types of hyaluronic acid; the difference is reflected in the viscosity of the substance. Depending on the indication, the doctor will choose a product with the right viscosity. Hyaluronic acid also boosts your own collagen production, which ensures that your skin will repair itself and look fuller.

What do we use Hyaluronic Acid for?

Hyaluronic acid is used to create extra volume on desired appearance features, for example:

  • Restore lost volume in areas such as the cheekbones, jawline, chin and temples.
  • Accentuating facial features to highlight certain areas.
  • Softening wrinkles.
  • Improving contours.
  • Fuller lips.
  • Softening scars.
  • Treating sharp lines.
  • Balancing the face.

The result of Hyaluronic Acid

The treatment with hyaluronic acid gives an immediate fresh, fuller and smoother result. The treated skin may be slightly swollen after the injection, but you will have this for a maximum of 36 hours. In most cases, swelling is not even visible. In exceptional cases, a blue spot may appear where the needle was inserted. You can easily camouflage this with some foundation or powder. You can resume your normal daily activities immediately after the treatment.

Veelgestelde vragen over Hyaluronic acid filler treatment

What is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in the body. After about the age of 25, the natural production of hyaluronic acid will decrease, which can cause sagging and wrinkles. A treatment with a hyaluronic acid filler helps to restore lost volume or can be used to accentuate certain facial features, such as enlarging the lips or adding extra volume to the cheekbones.

How does the hyaluronic acid treatment work?

During a treatment with a hyaluronic acid filler, a suitable anesthetic is always used so that you do not have to feel any pain. With a cannula or a small thin injection needle, the treating physician inserts the gel into the right place. Some fillers are already mixed with an anesthetic so that further anesthesia is not necessary.

The treatment is quite fast and takes about half an hour. If you choose a liquid facelift, the treatment will take about an hour. With a liquid facelift, various areas of the face are treated to restore harmony. You can see this as a mini facelift.

Maintaining the result

Because hyaluronic acid is a biological substance, just like human hyaluronic acid, the body breaks down the substance itself. Depending on the area that is treated, you will benefit from the effect for 6 to 18 months. The treatment can be repeated without any problems. If the volume gradually decreases again, you can also plan a touch-up filler treatment in the meantime.
