“What is hyaluronic acid?”

Hyaluronic acid is an important component that originally makes up human skin and subcutaneous tissue.Hyaluronic acid contains a lot of water and works to keep the skin elastic and moisturized, but as we age, the body loses hyaluronic acid, causing the skin to lose its firmness and moisture, and wrinkles become more noticeable.

Hyaluronic acid injections are injected directly into wrinkles and hollows around the mouth and eyes, lifting the skin from below and making wrinkles less noticeable.

Effects of hyaluronic acid injection

1. Lifting effect

When facial volume decreases due to aging, hyaluronic acid can be injected to plump up the face from the inside and achieve a lifting effect.This reduces facial sagging, creates a clearer facial line, and gives a more youthful look.At the same time, you can also expect to improve wrinkles, moisturize your skin, and improve elasticity.

2.Improvement of wrinkles

Injecting hyaluronic acid into nasolabial folds and deep wrinkles lifts the skin from within, making the wrinkles less noticeable.Hyaluronic acid stays in the wrinkle grooves and increases skin elasticity.This has the effect of making your skin firmer and making it easier to apply makeup.

3.Improve skin moisture and elasticity

Hyaluronic acid injections are especially effective for areas prone to dryness, such as the eyes and mouth.This treatment gives your skin the moisture it needs and reduces the appearance of fine lines.As a result, the skin regains its supple feel and fresh appearance, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is reduced.This gives an overall youthful appearance to the skin, which is also noticeable when using cosmetics.

4. Beautify your facial features
Adjusting effect

Hyaluronic acid injections can be injected into specific areas of the face, such as the nose, chin, tear troughs, and lips, to make your facial features more beautiful.This allows you to adjust the shape and volume of each area and improve the overall facial balance.For example, by increasing the height of your nose or defining your jawline, you can create a more attractive facial appearance.

Downtime, side effects, and precautions for hyaluronic acid injections/injections

Hyaluronic acid injection is a treatment to improve facial wrinkles and lack of volume.During treatment downtime, slight swelling and internal bleeding may occur, but this usually subsides within a few days to a week.

However, there are risks such as infection at the injection site, allergic reactions, and neurological disorders, which vary depending on the amount and depth of injection and the technique of the practitioner, so it is important to choose a practitioner with reliable technique.

There have also been cases where too much hyaluronic acid was injected to correct lack of volume, resulting in an unnatural appearance or facial deformity.In order to reduce these risks, it is important to check the experience and skills of the doctor performing the procedure, the credibility of the clinic, and whether sufficient counseling is provided before the procedure.

Furthermore, the effects of hyaluronic acid injections are temporary and require regular treatment.Before the treatment, be sure to have a clear picture of what you are looking for and what kind of image you would like to have, and receive sufficient counseling to ensure that you are satisfied with the results.

Popular and recommended treatments for hyaluronic acid injections by age group: 40s to 50s

After the age of 40, bone and fat tissue atrophy begins to appear.An uneven forehead, drooping eyelids, sunken eyes, and moss on the cheeks appear, which weakens the ability to support fat and skin, resulting in sagging.The result of sagging is deep wrinkles called nasolabial folds or marionette lines.Hyaluronic acid injection can support tissues by filling in atrophied dents, lifting sagging skin and improving deep grooves.

Popular and recommended treatments for hyaluronic acid injections by age group: 20s to 30s

Hard hyaluronic acid can be used to create the features characteristic of Asians, such as a low nose, flat front cheeks, and a drawn-in chin.It is a category called petit plastic surgery, and unlike surgical treatment, it is reversible.In recent years, many people have been injecting it into their foreheads to make them rounder.

FAQ

Is there any harm to the human body when the ingredients are taken directly into the skin through hyaluronic acid injections?
Since it uses ingredients that originally exist in the human body, it does not cause any harm to the human body.It is an absorbable substance and will eventually be broken down and absorbed by the body.
Can I go to work the next day?
Immediately after the treatment, you can continue your daily life without any inconvenience.Internal bleeding may occur, but you can wear makeup the next day and hide it with concealer.
I’m worried about the pain, what should I do?
Since this is an injection treatment, the skin surface will be sufficiently cooled with ice to reduce the pain caused by the puncture.For those who are concerned about pain, topical anesthesia or block anesthesia can be used.
Can men also receive the treatment?
Many men also receive hyaluronic acid injections.Since men's bones are different from women's, we design designs that bring out their masculinity.
What should I do if it is being performed at another hospital?
We also accept additions and modifications to hyaluronic acid injections from other hospitals.If possible, it will be easier if you know the preparation used, the amount, and the injection site.In some cases, we may suggest treatment after dissolution.
Does your face look bigger or unnatural?
The basic idea behind hyaluronic acid injection is to restore the skeleton, which changes with age, to its original appearance.By injecting the right amount of the right preparation into the right area and depth, it is possible to naturally restore your youthful appearance.
How long does the effect of hyaluronic acid injection last?
The effects of hyaluronic acid injections generally last for about 6 months to 2 years.However, this varies depending on the individual's constitution, the type of hyaluronic acid injected, and the site where it is injected.Additionally, hyaluronic acid is gradually broken down in the body, so its effectiveness gradually decreases over time.Periodic reinjections may be required to maintain long-term effectiveness.
How long does it take for the effects of hyaluronic acid injections to appear?
The effects of hyaluronic acid injections usually begin to be seen immediately after injection.If you receive hyaluronic acid injections for the first time, you may experience some mild swelling and redness for the first few days, but these symptoms are temporary and usually resolve within a few days to two weeks.Afterwards, you will notice noticeable effects such as an increase in volume at the injection site and a reduction in wrinkles and sagging skin.It typically takes one to two weeks to see full results.
