Filling with hyaluronic acid is one of the most popular medical-aesthetic procedures for improving the appearance of the face. This substance is known for keeping the skin beautiful, hydrated and healthy. Often associated with increasing volume and/or enhancing a certain feature of the face, it has many other advantages for the skin.
Over time, the body’s natural ability to produce hyaluronic acid diminishes. The skin loses elasticity, contour and definition. This process is most evident on the face, which takes on an aged appearance.
Medical-aesthetic procedures using hyaluronic acid help combat the effects of skin ageing. As it is a component naturally present in the body, the risks of allergy or infection are practically non-existent. Find out more about this substance and the benefits of its action.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a substance generated by our bodies. As well as helping to stimulate collagen production, it plays a fundamental role in moisturizing the skin. By retaining water in the different layers of the dermis, it gives it the support it needs to stay hydrated, firm and smooth.
Around the age of 25, our body’s ability to produce hyaluronic acid decreases. This is when we need to start taking measures to prevent skin ageing. Replenishing this substance is essential if you want to maintain a youthful appearance.
Filling the face with hyaluronic acid is a minimally invasive procedure with no recovery time and immediate, visible and long-lasting results.
Action of hyaluronic acid on 5 parts of the face
1. Dark circles
A face with deep dark circles can be a genetic trait or the result of age and/or external aggressions(tiredness, excessive sun exposure, etc.).
Filling with hyaluronic acid is the ideal treatment to improve deep dark circles. This substance restores volume to the lower eyelid, improves its texture and reduces pigmentation. Since it lightens the area of the dark circles, the effects can be visible after the first application.
2. Cheekbones
Filling with hyaluronic acid restores lost volume to the cheekbones in a natural and discreet way. This treatment gives them shape, proportion and contour, very important characteristics in the beauty and harmonization of the face. As with dark circles, the results are immediate, giving the face definition and beauty.
3. Nose
The nose is the most central point of our face and plays a key role in the harmony of our features. Correcting small features can boost self-esteem and improve your relationship with your image.
Rhinomodeling is a medical-aesthetic procedure using hyaluronic acid that has been very successful and widely accepted. This treatment improves the appearance of the hump and lifts the tip of the nose, among other aesthetic problems.
4. Wrinkles
Wrinkles are the result of muscle contraction and are caused by a decrease in the body’s production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. Filling with hyaluronic acid softens expression lines and helps to reduce their depth.
This medical-aesthetic treatment improves the appearance of various types of wrinkles, such as the Chinese moustache, the bar code, marionette lines and drooping cheekbones. As well as smoothing them out, it also prevents the appearance of new marks and restores firmness and volume to the face.
5. Lips
The lips are another area of the face that shows the passage of time and requires some care. Lack of deep hydration leads to loss of volume and elasticity. This is why lip fillers with hyaluronic acid help to moisturize and restore the volume lost over the years.
Caring for the lips is an important step in facial harmonization treatment, as it increases volume, defines the contour of the mouth and corrects asymmetries. Good harmonization has the ability to adjust proportions so that you achieve a more balanced and beautiful appearance, while attenuating wrinkles.
