Introduction
Hyaluronic acid injection is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses a synthetic substance similar to the body's natural hyaluronic acid. This substance is injected into the skin to fill wrinkles and restore volume to areas that have lost firmness.
- It reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- It restores volume to lips, cheeks and other areas of the face.
- It improves the appearance of the skin, making it more hydrated and elastic.
- The procedure is quick and painless.
II. Duration of results
Results are visible immediately and can last up to 18 months. The duration of results may depend on a number of factors such as:
- Type of hyaluronic acid used: there are different types of hyaluronic acid, with higher or lower degrees of crosslinking. The hyaluronic acid with higher crosslinking has a longer shelf life, but may be harder to the touch.
- Treated area: The results last longer in areas with less movement, such as cheekbones, than in areas with more movement, such as the lips.
- Injected quantity: the results depend on the amount injected, but care must be taken that only the aesthetic dermatologist decides how much should be injected.
- Individual metabolism: each person's metabolism is different, which can influence the duration of hyaluronic acid absorption.
Average duration of results:
- 6-9 months: for most hyaluronic acid treatments.
- 12-18 months: for certain types of hyaluronic acid with a higher degree of crosslinking, used especially for facial volume augmentation.
Tips for maintaining the results of hyaluronic acid injections:
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure: UV rays can accelerate the degradation of hyaluronic acid.
- Moisturize your skin: hydrating the skin helps maintain hyaluronic acid in the tissues.
- Protect your skin from the cold: low temperatures can lead to skin dehydration and accelerated degradation of hyaluronic acid.
- Avoid vigorous massage of the treated area: vigorous massage can lead to the displacement of hyaluronic acid from the injected area.
Reinjections: To maintain long-term results, periodic reinjection of hyaluronic acid is necessary.
III. Post-procedure care
Immediately after the procedure:
- Apply ice: apply cold compresses to the treated area for 10-15 minutes, several times a day, to reduce inflammation and swelling in that area.
- Avoid makeup: do not apply makeup to the treated area for 24 hours.
- Avoid sun exposure: protect the treated area from the sun with a high SPF sunscreen.
- Avoid intense physical exertion: do not do strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
- Do not massage the treated area: avoid massaging or touching the treated area for 24 hours.
In the coming days:
- Sleep on your back: sleep on your back with your head slightly elevated for 2-3 nights to reduce swelling.
- Avoid alcohol and anti-inflammatory medications: alcohol and anti-inflammatory medications can increase the risk of bleeding and swelling.
- Keep the treated area clean: gently wash the treated area with warm water and soap, twice a day.
- Watch for any signs of infection: if you notice redness, swelling, pain, or fever, contact your aesthetic dermatologist immediately.
General recommendations:
- Moisturize your skin: moisturize your skin daily with a light moisturizer.
- Use sunscreen: apply a high SPF sunscreen to the treated area daily.
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures: avoid prolonged exposure to sun, cold or wind.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle: a healthy and balanced diet, sufficient sleep and avoiding stress can help maintain the results of hyaluronic acid injections.
IV. Reinjections
In general, as a way to maintain results in the long term, reinjections are necessary at intervals of 6-18 months. There are a number of signs that may indicate the need for reinjection:
- Reappearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Decrease in the volume of the lips or other treated areas.
- Change in skin texture.
It is important to consult your aesthetic dermatologist to determine the optimal frequency of reinjections.
Preparatory tips for a reinjection:
- Follow the instructions of your aesthetic dermatologist regarding pre- and post-procedure care.
- Inform your aesthetic dermatologist about any health problems you have, as well as any medications you are taking.
- Avoid alcohol and anti-inflammatory medications – these can increase the risk of bleeding and swelling.
Plan your reinjection ahead of time preferably a few weeks before the date you want it to be done.
V. Conclusion
Hyaluronic acid injection is a safe and effective medical aesthetic procedure. It can also be a great way to improve your appearance and restore your self-confidence.
