Hyaluronic Acid Filler

Overview

Injectable hyaluronic acid is a type of temporary dermal filler, lasting approximately 6 to 18 months. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally throughout the body, and in the skin it attracts water, which allows the dermis to become more hydrated. Hyaluronic acid is used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, facial folds, and to create structure, framework, and add volume to areas of the face (such as the lips, jawline, cheeckbones, nasolabial folds, undereye, among other areas).

Anesthesia

Topical anesthesia is used.

Procedure Time

The procedure takes place over an average period of 30 minutes.

Post-treatment Care

This is an outpatient procedure. Avoid strenuous activity or exercise for 1 day following treatment.
