What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the human body, found in large quantities in the skin, joints, and connective tissues. Its main property is the ability to retain water, providing elasticity, hydration, and volume to the skin. As we age, the natural production of hyaluronic acid significantly decreases, resulting in volume loss, the appearance of wrinkles, and sagging facial features.
In aesthetic medicine, hyaluronic acid is used as an injectable material to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve facial symmetry and structure. Modern injectable hyaluronic acids are synthetic, fully biocompatible, and come in different viscosities and densities to be chosen according to the treatment area and desired result. The treatment with hyaluronic acid is considered non-invasive, combining immediate aesthetic improvement with complete safety and ease of application.
How is the procedure performed?
The hyaluronic acid treatment is performed in the clinic without anesthesia or downtime. Before the injection, the doctor carefully evaluates the facial morphology, proportions, areas of volume loss, or deep wrinkles, and selects the appropriate product. In sensitive areas or when high precision is required, either a fine needle or an atraumatic cannula is used.
The procedure lasts approximately 20–40 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. During the application, the patient may feel mild pressure or stretching sensations, but the presence of lidocaine in most injectables makes the process almost painless. Immediately after the procedure, results are visible, and the face appears fuller, fresher, and more symmetrical. Mild swelling or small bruises may occur but typically resolve within 1–3 days.
Hyaluronic acid is applied in many areas: lips, nasolabial folds, cheekbones, chin, under the eyes, glabellar lines, and facial oval. The effect duration ranges from 8 to 18 months, depending on the product and the individual’s metabolism. The treatment can be safely repeated as the material gradually absorbs, without needing a full reassessment.
What are the advantages of hyaluronic acid treatment?
Hyaluronic acid is the most widely used injectable material worldwide—and for good reason. It offers immediate results without surgery, with natural-looking outcomes, flexibility, and a high safety profile. Essentially, it allows the doctor to restore the face’s natural proportions, add volume where it’s lost, smooth deep wrinkles, and improve skin texture without causing deformities or a “frozen” look.
One of the greatest advantages is the immediate visible result, which provides patient satisfaction from day one. Additionally, the treatment is temporary and fully reversible since the material naturally absorbs in the body. In rare cases where the result is not satisfactory or asymmetry occurs, the enzyme hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve the product.
The flexibility of the method allows gradual facial shaping through repeated small applications, maintaining absolute harmony and naturalness. It is suitable for both women and men of any age and is an excellent choice for those seeking rejuvenation without surgery.
