Hyaluronic Acid Injections in Geneva

YOUR EXPECTATIONS

I use hyaluronic acid injections for my face because I want to:

Filling in my volume losses due to aging
Improve the quality of my skin
Enjoy a rested face and a radiant complexion
Reduce my expression lines
Enjoy a natural facial expression

Over time, the natural production of hyaluronic acid in your body continues to decrease. It is estimated that the body of a woman over 45 contains only 50% of her hyaluronic acid ! However, it is this molecule in your body that will allow your skin to preserve all its youthfulness. As a result, the lack of hyaluronic acid leads to the appearance of age wrinkles on your skin, in addition to gradually relaxing it.

By starting to fill in your loss of volume and wrinkles with localized injections of hyaluronic acid, you can expect an overall rejuvenation of your face, but also of your hands and your décolleté .

PRESENTATION OF HYALURONIC ACID INJECTION

Hyaluronic acid injections into the face are a cosmetic treatment that helps erase wrinkles and reshape areas of the face that naturally lose volume over time. Hyaluronic acid is a 100% natural molecule found in our skin. It promotes daily hydration so that it can remain toned . In addition to rejuvenating the face , hyaluronic acid can be used to treat other areas of the body, such as the hands and décolleté. With age, our body generates less and less of this reconstructive molecule, which results in the development of wrinkles, sagging skin and other signs of aging on our face.

To effectively combat the signs of aging, hyaluronic acid injections into the face are widely recommended by cosmetic doctors. Perfectly resorbable by your skin, the product allows for real facial rejuvenation. The hyaluronic acid used in aesthetic medicine is very similar to that produced by the body. There is therefore little risk of allergy. Hyaluronic injections are an effective solution for skin remodeling and the treatment of age wrinkles, but they can also be used on expression lines. Expression lines are those that result from the contractions of our facial muscles to mark our emotions, such as the frown line between the eyes that we create when we frown.

To help you regain a rejuvenated face, your Croix d'Or clinic also offers the injection of botulinum toxin for the treatment of wrinkles, as well known as Botox. There is a complementary treatment with hyaluronic acid. Indeed, hyaluronic acid should correct your bulk areas, so that botulinum toxin relaxs your overly contracted muscles.

During your first consultation in the clinic, your cosmetic surgeon will assess your needs to guide you towards the best facial aesthetic treatment( s) according to your expectations and needs. To learn more about our treatments, do not hesitate to contact our clinic .

AREAS TREATED WITH HYALURONIC ACID INJECTIONS

Hyaluronic acid injections are performed on areas of your body that lack tone or hydration. The face as a whole, but also the hands and décolleté can be treated with injections. It can be a question of filling wrinkles, but also of reshaping volumes as for the oval of the face. To give you a better overview, here are the main areas treated on your face:

– for the upper third of your face: frown lines between your eyebrows, crow's feet and temple lines, often a combination of hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin.

– for the middle third of your face: wrinkles between the nose and cheeks (the nasolabial fold), cheekbones, dark circles, tear trough under the dark circles.

– for the lower third of your face: bitterness lines, fine lines (small wrinkles) around the mouth, lips, chin.

PROCEDURE FOR HYALURONIC ACID INJECTION

Before starting the treatment, the cosmetic doctor begins by carefully examining your face in order to make a precise diagnosis of your needs. Your practitioner will then ensure that the hyaluronic acid injection is the facial aesthetic treatment best suited to your skin problem. To reduce the wrinkles on your face , your cosmetic doctor may, for example, suggest botulinum toxin injections rather than hyaluronic acid if he or she believes that the result will be better. In the case where the hyaluronic acid injection is the best aesthetic treatment for your needs, here is how the procedure is performed.

First of all, your cosmetic doctor starts by ensuring that you do not have any contraindications. Once this check is done, your practitioner ensures a rigorous cleaning of the injected area as well as a complete disinfection.

Your cosmetic doctor can then begin the procedure. The session is almost painless and only lasts 20 to 60 minutes depending on the number of areas to be treated as well as the surfaces concerned (face, hands, décolleté). Your doctor will simply perform small injections on the targeted areas using a very fine needle or a cannula.

At the end of the session, the first results are already visible. You sometimes have to wait 24 to 48 hours for the product to be perfectly in place and for the small swellings to have dissipated. We systematically see you again within 15 days after your visit to our clinic to evaluate the final result and make any possible adjustments.

After your treatment, you simply need to follow the instructions and prescriptions of your cosmetic doctor. The effect of hyaluronic acid has a duration of effectiveness of 6 to 18 months. To preserve the result for longer, you simply need to repeat the sessions.

SIDE EFFECTS OF HYALURONIC ACID INJECTION

Some temporary side effects may occur following an injection of hyaluronic acid, such as the appearance of slight redness or slight edema. Other effects such as a hematoma or ecchymosis are very rarely observed in the case of deep injection.

The most serious side effects are allergies, skin necrosis or vascular compressions or embolisms. These effects are obviously very rare, they are mainly observed in the case of poorly positioned products or unsuitable for the injected area. By using a renowned cosmetic medicine and surgery clinic such as the Clinique de la Croix d'Or, you can be sure to benefit from high-quality products for all your cosmetic treatments.
