Wrinkle/line treatment using hyaluronic acid and the pix'L cannula

What is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a carbohydrate and appears in the human body, e.g. in the skin or in the eyeball, etc. HA has an incredibly high capacity to store water. It is synthesized by fibroblasts in the skin and provides volume and freshness. The older we get, the less hyaluronic acid we have in our skin.

In the field of aesthetic dermal fillers, hyaluronic acid is offered in different particle sizes depending on the depth of the wrinkles (Restylane, Perlane, Restylane Lipp, Restylane touch, Sub Q, Restylane Vital, Juvederm ULTRA, Belotero, Softline and Softline max.)

How does hyaluronic acid combat wrinkles?

With increasing age, wrinkles are mainly created by a loss of volume in the connective tissue together with the strain caused by the facial muscles used for expressions and gravity. Hyaluronic acid is particularly suitable for filling skin lines up to larger tissue defects. By injecting it into the lines, HA raises the skin level, which is adjusted to match the surrounding tissue. The effect lasts about 6-12 months.

Hyaluronic acid is injected subcutaneously using a special cannula, the pix'L needle, that delivers it with minimal impact into skin tissue, almost to the exclusion of discomfort or tissue trauma. Indeed, the vast majority of our clients are able to re-engage in their daily routines straightaway, with no "recovery downtime". This cannula is designed to deliver the treatment substance uniformly at a steady rate of flow, simplifying the task for the doctor and facilitating exceptionally precise and natural results.

Which wrinkles can be filled using hyaluronic acid?

Restylane Vital, mesotherapy with the body?s own proteins:
For fine lines in the cheek and eye area as well as the lower eyelid; lines around the mouth (lip lines, smoker's lines); lines on the neck; ageing hands and cleavages?

Perlane, Restylane, Boletero; Softline max; Juvederm ultra:
Nasolabial folds; lines at the corner of the mouth; marionette lines Forehead lines and frown lines can also be treated with HA as an accompaniment to a Botox therapy.Lachrymal grooves; dark circles under the eyes; sagging earlobes and the enlargement of pierced holes in ears are a good indication for hyaluronic acid and result in great aesthetic results.
Nose deformations and nose imperfections can be improved with hyaluronic acid in combination with Botox.
This makes any surgical nose correction unnecessary!!

It is very effective to enrich this hyaluronic acid with the body's own active substances, then to introduce these to the top layer of skin by means of micro-injections (mesotherapy). Mesotherapy acts like an internal "moisturising pack", refreshing the skin, smoothing away small lines, improving the supply of moisture to skin tissue and enhancing the facial complexion. 

Areas that can be injected (filled) easily with the corresponding hyaluronic acid:

  • Injections in nasolabial folds
  • Correction of nose shape (without surgery)
  • Injections to the upper lip area (smoothing of smoker's lines)
