Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the human body – in the skin, in the fluid surrounding the eyes, in some cartilage, in the synovial fluid. As a natural component of human skin, it has the property of retaining water in the skin, resulting in firmness, volume and natural elasticity. It is prepared in the laboratory and is today one of the most popular and safe injectable materials.
When hyaluronic acid is injected into the human body, it functions as a substrate that supports tissue that has lost its volume.
Indications
As we age, volume is lost from our face. This results in shadows and "empty" areas, often between the lower eyelid and the cheeks, on the cheekbones, around the mouth. There has been a trend for several years to restore lost volume with hyaluronic acid or other implants.
Results
The lost volume is restored and the face acquires firmness and a youthful appearance. The goal should always remain not to alter the physiognomy, but simply to give the impression that the face is more rested and youthful.
