The skin's natural aging process creates a progressive reduction in the collagen layer that supports it. A youthful face is characterized by a regular oval, full cheeks and a well-defined jawline. However, the shape and contours of the face change over the years. As facial volume diminishes, the skin thins and the effects of gravity become apparent.
One of the most visible signs of facial aging is the sagging of the features and hollowing of the cheeks caused by the gradual loss of volume or dermal density.
The hyaluronic acid injectables used in Nice replace these lost facial volumes. They also correct signs of fatigue around the eyes and make the lips plump and supple.
Filler injections are ideal for people who want facial rejuvenation without resorting to invasive methods, and with a short recovery period.
Filler injections are used to improve facial contours, making them look attractive and rejuvenated. They can also be used to fill facial wrinkles, as well as depressions in the skin's surface caused by old scars.
Areas of action of a hyaluronic acid injection
- Forehead wrinkles
- Corrects crow's feet and dark circles
- Mouth contour
- Lip volume
- Facial contours, nasolabial folds, cheeks and cheekbones
The most important aspect of hyaluronic acid filling injections in Nice is the natural look of the face once the injections have been completed.
It's important to understand that the result of an injection session depends less on the type of injection, and more on the doctor's injection method. What really counts is the amount of product injected into each area.
What do you need to do to prepare for your hyaluronic acid injection?
- Use a superficial pre-peel solution to tighten your skin's pores and optimize the duration of the filling,
- Moisturize your skin well in the weeks before,
- Treat fever blisters (herpes) with an anti-herpes treatment.
For 4 to 8 days before the injection, avoid taking aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs.
For 24 hours before the injection, avoid alcohol and sun exposure. If a skin lesion occurs on the day of injection (rash, herpes, pustule, skin rash, urticaria, etc.), postpone the injection until it has healed.
What to do after hyaluronic acid injection
Within 4 hours :
- Avoid making faces or massaging the injected area.
- No traumatic sports (jogging, boxing) or sauna/hammam.
- You may notice some redness on the various treated areas, which will disappear within a few hours.
- Make-up can be applied the same evening.
24 to 48 hours after the session, a few bruises may occur:
- either not visible, but felt as small, hard, painful balls
- either visible, the color will change from blue to green-yellow in a few days
For lasting results, you can :
- Apply a moisturizing cream morning and night.
- Always apply a high-protection SPF 50 sunblock during the day.
- Avoid alcohol, stress, smoking, lack of sleep and violent sports, all of which cause oxidative stress and accelerate skin aging.
