Hyaluronic acid
By Dr. Andreas Trønnes, physician at Aesthetic Studio Oslo
Hyaluronic acid. This complex word is becoming a household name in beauty and skincare. Why? Because it has revolutionized the world of aesthetic medicine. But what are hyaluronic acid fillers and how are they used? Let's dive deeper.
What is Hyaluronic Acid.
First and foremost, hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in the human body. It acts as a moisture magnet, and can hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water. This makes it an excellent ingredient for moisturizing skincare products. But when it comes to aesthetic medicine, it's HA fillers that really shine.
Hyaluronic acid fillers.
These fillers are gel-like substances that are injected under the skin to restore lost volume, smooth out lines and wrinkles, or improve facial contours. Because HA is naturally found in the body, the risk of allergic reactions is minimal, making it a popular choice for many patients.
Application in aesthetic medicine.
Wrinkle reduction: One of the most well-known uses for HA fillers is to treat lines and wrinkles. They work particularly well on "smile lines", "boob lines", and lines around the nose and mouth.
Lip enhancement: For those who want fuller, more defined lips, HA fillers can provide natural-looking results.
Cheeks and jawline contouring: With age, we lose natural volume in the face, which can make cheeks look sunken. HA fillers can restore this volume and create a more youthful contour.
Hand enhancement: Hands can also reveal signs of ageing. Fillers can help restore volume and reduce the appearance of tendons and veins.
Nose contouring: Some people use HA fillers to improve the appearance of their nose, a procedure sometimes referred to as a "non-surgical nose job".
How long does the effect last?
The duration of the effect from HA fillers varies based on the product used as well as the individual's metabolism. In general, results can last from 6 months to over a year.
