Filler Injections
EFFECTIVE FOR – Deeper wrinkles, loss of volume
Treatment is carried out using varying viscosities of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the human body. Hyaluronic acid creates volume in the dermis that instantly reduces wrinkles and lines by “plumping up” the skin. The doctor injects the product along the line/wrinkle.
Results obtained during a session will be visible for 6 to 9 months depending on the patient and the product injected.
However, although the product is completely absorbed over time, the clinical results don’t completely disappear. Should you decide to follow up the treatment, the volume injected may be reduced and sessions will not need to be so regular.
WHERE IT WORKS BEST – Face.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW :
One session is enough; it lasts about 30 minutes. After the session the skin may sometimes be a bit red or slightly bruised but these will disappear after just a few days.
- Treatment is carried out over 3 to 5 sessions at two to three-week intervals. Maintaining sessions every 3 to 6 months depending on the requirements of your skin and the ageing grade..
A session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes.
- No downtime necessary, just a slight risk of redness or bruising at the injection sites that will quickly and naturally disappear.
- The pain is bearable (the needle is short and fine) but a local anaesthetic can be applied if desired.
- Contraindications: pregnant or breast-feeding women, autoimmune diseases, or immunotherapeutic treatments, history of allergies, infections or inflammations in the zone(s) to be treated.
- For more information about the undesirable effects, please consult the instruction for use..
Face Contouring
Volumizing hyaluronic acid injection
EFFECTIVE FOR – Areas that are hollow or have deep marks
Using a hyaluronic acid volumizer, it is possible to correct and redefine areas where there has been a loss of volume (temple, cheek). The product stays exactly where it has been injected, allowing for a high degree of finesse in the act itself and the result obtained.
Results last a minimum of 9 months.
WHERE IT WORKS BEST – Cheekbones, deep naso-labial folds, cheeks
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW :
One session is enough; it lasts about 30 minutes. After the session the skin may sometimes be a bit red or slightly bruised but these will disappear after just a few days.
- Results are instantly visible
- No downtime required just some judicious make-up
Any pain experienced will depend on the area being treated and the doctor can offer a local anaesthetic
- It is perfectly fine to combine volumizing injections with other anti-ageing treatments/techniques (mesotherapy, peels, botulinum toxin, lasers, radiofrequency, etc.), according to the doctor’s recommendations.
- Contraindications: pregnant or breast-feeding women, autoimmune diseases, or immunotherapeutic treatments, history of allergies, infections or inflammations in the zone(s) to be treated.
Poly Revitalizing
Anti-aging Mesotherapy (Poly revitalizing)
EFFECTIVE FOR – Dull skin, sagging skin with loss of tone/elasticity
These injections involve a product and method that are very different from hyaluronic acid or botulinum toxin injections. Due to the skin losing vital elements, like hyaluronic acid, over time, its tone, elasticity, thickness and capacity to rehydrate all diminish.
Mesotherapy involves a series of mini-injections into the superficial dermis of a rich cocktail of vitamins, amino acids and trace elements combined with very fine hyaluronic acid, that revitalizes and stimulates the skin’s natural processes. The skin regains its quality and radiance and is brighter, suppler, firmer…. This is a revitalizing treatment that is beneficial at any age from 30, both in the prevention and treatment of the signs of aging.
WHERE IT WORKS BEST – Revitalization: Face, neck, neckline, the backs of the hands, thighs, arms
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW :
- Treatment is carried out over 3 to 5 sessions at two to three-week intervals. Maintaining sessions every 3 to 6 months depending on the requirements of your skin and the ageing grade. A session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes.
- No downtime necessary, just a slight risk of redness or bruising at the injection sites that will quickly and naturally disappear.
- The pain is bearable (the needle is short and fine) but a local anaesthetic can be applied if desired.
Contraindications: pregnant or breast-feeding women, autoimmune diseases, or immunotherapeutic treatments, history of allergies, infections or inflammations in the zone(s) to be treated.
Hydrating Injections
Deep hydrating injections
EFFECTIVE FOR – Dull skin, dry skin, sagging skin with loss of tone/elasticity and comfort
These injections involve a series of multi punctures into the deeper layers of the skin (mid-dermis) using hyaluronic acid, which is extremely moisturizing. The hyaluronic acid attracts and traps moisture traps the water molecules thousands times of its weight and ensures a lasting hydration of the skin.
WHERE IT WORKS BEST – Face, fragile areas around the eyes and mouth, neck, neckline, the hands
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW :
Treatment is carried out in 3 sessions over a month. Maintaining sessions every 3 to 6 months depending on the requirements of your skin. A session lasts about 30 minutes.
- No downtime necessary, just a slight risk of redness or bruising at the injection sites that will quickly and naturally disappear.
- The pain is bearable (the needle is short and fine) but a local anaesthetic cream can be applied.
Contraindications: pregnant or breast-feeding women, autoimmune diseases, or immunotherapeutic treatments, history of allergies, infections or inflammations in the zone(s) to be treated.
Peels
Superficial Peel
EFFECTIVE FOR – Skin texture, dilated pores, complexion, redness and fine lines
The practitioner can dose the percentage of glycolic acid, depending on the state and needs of the skin. The peel treatment can also be combined with sessions of mesotherapy.
WHERE IT WORKS BEST – Face, neck, neckline, the hands
