Hyaluronic acid injections The joints of the body allow us to move functionally and comfortably. Wear and tear on the joints can lead to ongoing pain and the breakdown of important structures, including cartilage. Studies have indicated that certain biological agents, including hyaluronic acid, may help relieve the inflammation that causes pain. What Are Hyaluronic Acid Injections? The joints are naturally lubricated by what is called synovial fluid. This fluid contains hyaluronic acid, a gel-like substance made by the body. Hyaluronic acid injections are a form of therapy intended to offset the deterioration and decline of this fluid in patients with osteoarthritis, the condition in which the joint wears away. By increasing the thickness and viscosity of hyaluronic acid in the joint, the structure should move more freely and without pain. Can Hyaluronic Acid Injections Relieve Joint Pain Effectively? It is believed that hyaluronic acid has several functions in the body. Each of these may relate to the pain-relief patients may achieve with targeted injections. These functions include: Hyaluronic acid is a chemical that binds to water molecules to achieve a gel-like consistency. Naturally present in the joints, this viscous fluid supports the natural shock-absorbing abilities of the cartilage in joints. Anti-inflammatory. Hyaluronic acid is an integral part of reducing pain-causing inflammation in joints. Hyaluronic acid facilitates the body`s natural regenerative capacity in growing new cells to repair tissues, including cartilage and bone. Studies have shown that hyaluronic acid is vital to the moisture of tissues. A person who weighs 154 pounds has an average of 15 ounces of hyaluronic acid to maintain hydration in the joints and eyes. How Long do Hyaluronic Acid Injections Last? How long pain relief lasts after receiving hyaluronic acid injections can vary from one person to another, as can the degree of pain relief that is achieved with each patient. Some patients have reported results lasting as long as 12 months, with others reporting pain-relief for 4 to 6 months. It is important to note that it can take several days or weeks for the effects of hyaluronic acid injections to develop. Many doctors advise patients to rest for a period of about 24 hours after receiving treatment. This helps to keep post-injection pain to a minimum and also decreases the likelihood of injected hyaluronic acid being flushed out of the capsule that surrounds the joint. For the first 24 hours after injections, patients may engage in low-impact activities such as short, slow walking. Higher impact activities such as carrying heavy objects and running should be avoided for a day or two. Am I A Candidate for Hyaluronic Acid Injections? People whose pain is not adequately relieved by oral pain-relievers or anti-inflammatory medication may be good candidates for hyaluronic acid injections. This form of therapy may also be considered for patients who cannot receive steroid injections for any reason. Studies have shown that hyaluronic acid injections may provide more pain relief for people with osteoarthritis of the knee than remedies such as heat, ice, and over-the-counter pain medication. Studies have also indicated that, in some cases, hyaluronic acid injections have achieved comparable results to corticosteroid injections into the knee. There are several conditions for which hyaluronic acid is used. These include: This is one of the most common conditions to cause persistent joint pain and it is one that often requires ongoing care to maintain symptoms. Injections may be administered into the hip, ankle, shoulder, knee, and thumb joints affected by the natural deterioration of cartilage. Rheumatoid arthritis. In one study, inflammation in the foot and ankle joints caused by rheumatoid arthritis improved with injections of hyaluronic acid. Tennis elbow. Hyaluronic acid has anti-inflammatory and lubricating properties that can offset the degeneration of the lateral epicondyle tendon in the elbow. Frozen shoulder. Research has suggested that the stiffness associated with frozen shoulder may stem from a marked decrease in hyaluronic acid in the joint. Injections of hyaluronic acid may restore adequate viscosity and also decrease inflammation in the synovial membrane. Are Hyaluronic Acid Injections Safe? Relatively few studies have reviewed the long-term effects of hyaluronic acid. However, this substance has been safely used in the form of cosmetic soft-tissue fillers (dermal fillers) for many years. Because hyaluronic acid is made by the body, the insertion of the chemical is very unlikely to cause an adverse reaction. When used appropriately, hyaluronic acid is considered safe. What Are the Side Effects to Hyaluronic Acid Injections? The common side effects associated with hyaluronic acid injections include minor pain or aching at the injection site. Although rare, it is possible that the treated joint may flare up with inflammation after injection therapy. This should only be temporary.

As we age, our faces lose subcutaneous fat, which gives us volume and fullness. As that fat is lost, our facial muscles get closer to the skin's surface, making creases more noticeable (e.g. marionette lines). An injectable like a dermal filler can restore this volume and fullness to the face, lessening the appearance of wrinkles and decreased facial volume. Plus, it can also give you the facial symmetry and lips you've always wanted, too! If you're wondering if dermal fillers are right for you, here are a few things you need to know. HOW DERMAL FILLERS WORK A dermal filler is a gel-like substance that's injected into the skin to temporarily fill in facial creases, wrinkles, restore lost facial volume, fix facial symmetry, and augment lips. It's completely different from Botox, which is an injectable that paralyzes the muscle that causes the wrinkle. Depending on the dermal filler product used, results can vary from 6 to 12 months, or even longer. (More on that in sec.) Therefore, it's best to start off conservative and increase later. In fact, most patients will likely need more than one injection to achieve the desired effect. Also keep in mind the health of your skin will affect the results. One more reason to take good care of your skin! USES FOR DERMAL FILLER Dermal fillers are commonly used to soften wrinkles and facial creases like nasolabial folds (e.g. marionette lines), augment lips, and enhance sunken cheeks. They can also aid in improving the appearance of recessed scars and improve contour deformities. Since it is an injection, there is a risk for potential side effects. Common side effects include pain at the injection site, bruising, redness, swelling, tenderness, itching, or rash. If infection or severe allergic reaction occurs, contact your doctor immediately. TYPES OF DERMAL FILLER There are several types of dermal fillers. The most common types are the following FDA approved dermal fillers: calcium hydroxylapatite , hyaluronic acid , polyalkylimide , polylactid acid , and polymethyl-methacrylate microspheres . While each type fills, they are also different. Key differences are the degrees of softness, chemical makeup, immediate results, and how long they last. As a result, different dermal fillers are better suited for certain targeted concerns. For instance, a "softer fill" would be used for lips whereas a "harder fill" for cheeks. Your doctor will determine which dermal filler is best for your desired targeted area.

Hyaluronic acid fillers are a popular choice for reducing the facial lines and wrinkles that result from aging. Such fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body`s connective tissues and skin. Once injected, they plump up facial skin that may have lost volume or elasticity as part of the aging process, filling in wrinkles from the inside and making the skin appear younger and rejuvenated. Over the past few decades, many types of hyaluronic acid fillers have been developed. A few are meant for deeper facial folds, while others are intended for more superficial wrinkles. Are You a Good Candidate? These injections are commonly used as a treatment for the facial folds and wrinkles that occur as a result of aging. Popular treatment areas include: Forehead lines, Worry lines between the eyebrows Smile lines, or the nasolabial fold, running from the corners of the mouth to the nose. Crow`s feet around the eyes Plumping up the lips or cheeks Marionette lines (running vertically down the chin from the edges of the mouth) Most patients are 30 to 65 years old and are looking to reverse the signs of aging, although people both older and younger may receive hyaluronic acid injections. Many patients opt for HA fillers as an alternative to other injectable fillers, such as collagen, because there is no risk of an allergic reaction. Hyaluronic acid filler treatment areas Treatment Details: What You Can Expect Injections of HA-based fillers are performed while patients sit in a chair in the doctor`s office. The treatment takes an hour or less; many people call the use of injectable fillers a `lunchtime facelift` because of the short time needed for treatment. Some formulations contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic. In other cases, the doctor will administer a topical or local anesthetic in order to make treatment as comfortable as possible. Then, the chosen filler is injected through a thin needle into the targeted area of skin. The exact volume of HA filler injected depends on the depth of the wrinkle, amount of change desired, skin type, and other factors. After injection, the skin may be massaged in order to smooth the injected material and ensure the most aesthetically pleasing and natural-looking results. Following treatment, patients are free to leave the doctor`s office immediately. How Dermal Fillers Work? Safety Information Patients may experience minor bruising, swelling, redness, or tenderness at the point of injection. Because hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body there is no risk of an allergic reaction, unlike with some other cosmetic fillers. Benefits & Recovery Time Most patients experience little to no downtime. This is one reason why many patients opt for hyaluronic acid fillers over plastic surgery techniques like eyelid surgery. There are no incisions, no bandages, and no restrictions on your activities after the procedure is complete. Once injected, the hyaluronic acid improves the structure of the skin while attracting water molecules, which aids in hydration and increasing skin volume. Some of the results will be visible immediately, while others may take a week or two to become apparent. Depending on the HA filler solution used, the results may last anywhere from a couple of months to several years. What`s the Cost? Hyaluronic acid fillers are much less expensive than surgical solutions for reducing the signs of aging, such as a facelift or brow lift. The exact cost depends on the brand name of HA filler used, the volume of filler, the geographic location and doctor performing the injection and other factors. While cosmetic injections are not usually covered by health insurance, many doctors offer flexible financing and payment plans to help their patients afford these treatments.

Dermal Fillers have been around for over 40 years, but have drastically changed over the years. In understanding any type of injection, it is important to look at its history for valuable lessons, in order for progress to be a success. And quite honestly, it`s very interesting to see where we have come in the last 40 years in the world of injectables Throughout history, humans have experimented with different ways to improve the aesthetics of our faces and help us look younger. We can trace injectable products all the way back to the 1890`s when doctors attempted to fill out facial defects by transplanting fat from the arms into the face. Today, we will be examining the brief history of dermal fillers from their bovine collagen roots, to the advanced fillers that are available today. Bovine Collagen (Yes, Bovine as in Beef) Dermal fillers made their debut in the 1970s when various animal collagens had been researched and tested enough to use on humans and therefore collagen injections and implants were introduced. Specifically, bovine collagen, or collagen derived from cows was used as a filler.The problem with this type of filler was that bovine collagen is foreign to the human body, so a sensitivity test was needed to ensure your body could tolerate it and wasn`t allergic. Bovine collagen also had a lot of swelling associated with it and did not have long-lasting results. What is more shocking than the use of bovine collagen is the fact that it still exists today. Enter Hyaluronic Acid Bovine collagen, as well as some human collagen fillers, were used up until the early 2000`s when the FDA approved the use of hyaluronic acid fillers, which ultimately changed the game for dermal fillers. Hyaluronic Acid is a natural substance that is already found in our bodies. We have previously written and raved about Hyaluronic Acid products. These products last much longer than collagen fillers, which contributed to their instant fame and success. There are many types of dermal fillers available today, including some semi-synthetic options. Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers, such as Radiesse, are a mix of organic and non-organic materials. They tend to have longer lasting results and are much thicker. A major advance in dermal fillers over the years comes with the introduction of lidocaine mixed in with the filler. Prior to this advancement, none of the dermal fillers had a numbing component and many injectors thought that lidocaine took away from the effectiveness of the product. So patients endured the slight pain associated with the procedure. Now, many dermal fillers have the lidocaine mixed in during manufacturing, and can help reduce the discomfort some patients feel. Another big advance is not necessarily in the makeup of these fillers, but in how they are injected. Microcannulas are an alternative to the traditional needle, and depending on the injector`s preference, can be used to insert the filler. We will discuss more on microcannulas next week. The dermal filler has come a long way over the years and will only continue to develop. There are so many options available today, each one different than the next. It is important to find an experienced injector that can recommend the right dermal filler for you, and inject it properly to produce desired results.

Your body makes hyaluronic acid. It's a natural part of the fluid that helps lubricate and cushion your joints and keeps them working smoothly. When you have osteoarthritis (OA), the hyaluronic acid in the affected joint thins. Hyaluronic acid injections add to your body's natural supply. You may hear your doctor refer to these injections as "viscosupplementation," which literally means they help the fluid in your joints. Should You Try Hyaluronic Acid Injections? Doctors can't predict who will benefit from hyaluronic acid injections. But many doctors give them to people with knee OA whose symptoms don`t get better with painkillers or non-drug treatments such as heat or ice. Hyaluronic injections are also often tried by people who can't take painkillers like acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin), or naproxen sodium (Aleve) or can't have (or aren't ready for) total knee replacement surgery. How Effective Are Hyaluronic Acid Injections for Osteoarthritis? Studies show hyaluronic acid injections may work better than painkillers for some people with OA. Other studies have shown they also may work as well as corticosteroid knee injections. Depending on which type your doctor uses, you may get a single shot. Or you'll get three to five injections spaced a week apart. The injection is given the same way for all types. First, the doctor cleans the area. If your knee is swollen with excess fluid, your doctor may inject a local painkiller, then insert a needle into the joint to withdraw excess fluid. With the same needle still in place, the doctor can usually inject the hyaluronic acid into the knee joint. After an injection, you shouldn't do hard weight-bearing activity for one or two days. Otherwise, you should be able to resume normal activities. Side Effects The most common short-term side effects are minor pain at the injection site and minor buildup of joint fluid. These get better within a few days. Infrequently the injected joint may flare up with increased inflammation.

Botox and dermal fillers are cosmetic treatments given through injections, usually in a doctor`s office. They are minimally invasive, meaning they do not involve surgery. That is where their similarities end, however. Botox contains purified bacteria that freeze muscles. In doing so, Botox can help minimize the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions. Dermal fillers contain ingredients that add fullness to areas that have thinned due to aging. This thinning is common in the cheeks, lips, and around the mouth. What is Botox? Botox may help to correct dynamic wrinkles, such as crow`s feet around the eyes and horizontal lines on the forehead. Botox is a purified form of the botulinum toxin that is obtained from bacteria. Though it is deadly in larger amounts, the tiny, regulated amount of Botox given to correct wrinkles has been used safely for decades. Botox works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it is injected. When those nerve signals are interrupted, the affected muscle is temporarily paralyzed or frozen. Without movement of these selected muscles in the face, certain wrinkles may be softened, reduced, or even removed. Botox and other treatments made with botulinum toxin are sometimes called neuromodulators or neurotoxins. What can Botox correct? Botox only works on wrinkles that are caused by muscle movement. These are known as dynamic wrinkles, and are often called [expression lines." The most common dynamic wrinkles that Botox can treat are lines on the upper face, such as the [11" between the brows, horizontal lines on the forehead, and crow`s feet around the eyes. These lines are caused by smiling, frowning, squinting, and other facial expressions. Botox will not work on fine lines and wrinkles caused by sagging or loss of plumpness in the face. These are known as static wrinkles. Static wrinkles include lines in the cheeks, neck, and jowl areas. Botox is not a permanent treatment. Repeated treatments are necessary for continued wrinkle-reducing effects. Most people find that the muscle-relaxing effect of Botox lasts for 3 to 4 months. What is dermal fillers? Dermal fillers, sometimes called soft tissue fillers, are substances designed to be injected beneath the surface of the skin to add volume and fullness. Substances used in dermal fillers include: Calcium hydroxylapatite, which is a mineral-like compound found in bones. Hyaluronic acid, which is found in some fluids and tissues in the body that add plumpness to the skin. Polyalkylimide, a transparent gel that is compatible with the body. Polylactic acid, which stimulates the skin to make more collagen. Polymethyl-methacrylate microspheres (PMMA), a semi-permanent filler Each one of these is designed to treat different signs of aging or other cosmetic issues. The time they take to work, as well as how long they last, also vary. Some fillers last 6 months, while others last up to 2 years or longer. People should discuss their individual needs and expectations with their doctor to determine what filler would be the best choice for them. What can dermal fillers correct? Different types of dermal fillers are designed to treat varying signs of aging. Depending on the filler selected, they may: plump up thinning lips enhance or fill in shallow areas on the face decrease or remove the shadow or wrinkle under the eyes caused by the lower eyelid fill in or soften the look of recessed scars fill in or soften static wrinkles, especially on the lower face Static wrinkles include those around the mouth and along the cheeks. These wrinkles are usually a result of a loss of collagen and elasticity in the skin.

Dermal fillers are highly popular cosmetic treatments that can be considered part of a non-surgical facelift. Dermal fillers are used to plump up these diminished areas in order to restore a natural-looking rejuvenated appearance and create a more youthful look. As well as being effective for facial rejuvenation, dermal fillers are also great for enhancing and improving the aesthetics of areas of the face. At Hans Place, we use injectables to augment the nose, chin, cheeks and lips in a natural and subtle way. If you want to improve the shape, contour or plumpness in areas of the face, dermal fillers can be an ideal solution. Dermal fillers are considered injectibles, and there are over 300 different types available. The majority of them are biodegradable, non-animal hyaluronic acid-based implants. We use the highest quality fillers, such as the Juvederm Xycross range. These fillers look like a clear gel, which is similar to the hyaluronic acid that is found within the skin and is used to keep the skin elastic and hydrated. This hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring polysaccharide which has been used for medical procedures for many years; it is completely safe and has many benefits to the skin. What Can Dermal Fillers Be Used For? The beauty of dermal fillers and non-surgical facelifts is that they are very versatile. Practitioners can use the injectables for a range of different cosmetic procedures with different natural results. Whether you want to rejuvenate your face, enhance your lips, or augment your nose, dermal fillers can be used to create undetectable results. These are just a few of the popular uses for dermal fillers and non-surgical facelifts:

1.The treatment is non-invasive with virtually no recovery time necessary; you can resume your normal activities immediately after treatment. 2.Not permanent and will naturally break down. 3.Dermal Fillers are only performed by a fully trained Medical Professional. 4.Combine with Anti-Ageing injections for a complete rejuvenation treatment. 5.Requires no test prior to treatment, unlike collagen injectables which require a skin test to be carried out 28 days prior to treatment. 6.Suitable for Vegans. 7.Dermal Filler treatments offer patients a wide range of benefits, including a more youthful appearance. 8.This treatment can be used to fill minor to moderate lines and fill-in wrinkles and is especially effective around the eyes, nose, and mouth. 9.The treatment can be tailored to your needs providing a natural look.

Mesotherapy is a modern form of therapy that consists of injecting medicines, vitamins and minerals as close as possible to the area that needs treatment. It is an astonishingly effective technique in aesthetic medicine as it treats layers of the skin, which are hardly penetrated by other non-invasive treatments . To understand better how mesotherapy works, it would be essential to make a reference to its etymology; the word meso means `middle` in Greek and refers to the mesoderm which is the embryonal tissue that appears in the third week of embryonic development of the human body and which later forms the skin and the connective tissue. The word `therapy` derives from the Greek term for `healing`. For this reason, the healing effects of mesotherapy are not only seen in the area treated; they can also act as a regulatory therapy that affects the whole body. Furthermore, if we were to find a word to define mesotherapy, we would best describe it as a [technique" – a technique of application, for, when we speak of mesotherapy, we refer to the manner in which we inject the skin in order to achieve different effects. These effects range from the management of pain to the treatment of scars and smoothing of wrinkles. Therefore, mesotherapy could be defined as an intradermal and loco-regional [therapeutic technique from general medicine" as it was defined by the French Academy of Medicine in 1987 . Mesotherapy uses all of the injectable drugs of our pharmacopeia, as long as they are compatible with the intradermal route and can be injected as close as possible to the area we want to treat. In aesthetic medicine there are several indications for which we can successfully use mesotherapy. In this article we shall have a closer look at the most important ones, such as facial rejuvenation, Mesolift, Mesobotox, and mesotherapy to treat cellulite. We will also give a general insight into how mesotherapy is safely performed and what instruments and medicines are required for each indication. It is worth noting that mesotherapy is not only used to treat ageing skin, but also it prevents the skin from ageing.

Dermal fillers - how do they work? Dermal Fillers are comprised of the natural substances in the human body such as hyaluronic acid which becomes depleted as we age. Our natural collagen and elastin levels in the skin lessens, as cells lose their ability to produce more of this. When we are young we have a natural abundance of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and collagen in our body, this helps the skin remain supported, keeping lines and wrinkles from developing. By filling, smoothing and lifting folds and wrinkles on the face, dermal fillers can make a subtle but powerful difference to a person`s appearance, giving them a refreshed look. The aesthetic benefit of dermal filler treatments can be seen immediately after the treatment. Treating wrinkles with dermal filler is fast, leaving no scars and discomfort is minimal. What side effects may I expect following treatment? Immediately after treatment there is often swelling, redness, some tenderness, and itching at the site of the treated areas. This is completely normal, it is only temporary and as a rule will disappear in 1 or 2 days. The Lip filler treatment post injection swelling may last longer than other areas of the face. Some patients can experience swelling for up to 2 weeks. It is not uncommon for the lips to look uneven during this time frame, they may also be bruised. The immediate look of the lips after treatment is not the final result this will take a minimum of 2 weeks to be seen. Who should avoid this treatment? There is no known risk to those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, but we would advise against having treatment under these conditions.

Injectable wrinkle fillers can give you a more youthful look for a fraction of what a traditional facelift costs. Most will fill hollows, lines, and wrinkles in less than 30 minutes with results that can last from 4 months to more than a year. Injectable wrinkle fillers, unlike Botox injections that relax the muscle under a wrinkle, fill the line, crease, or area with one of several different substances. As a result, trouble spots nearly disappear. Wrinkle fillers can also be used as "volumizers," plumping and lifting cheeks, chins, jawlines, and temples; filling out thin lips, and plumping sagging hands. The treatment is fast and easy. But all wrinkle fillers have a downside, including the risk of allergic reaction and the formation of tiny bumps under the skin. In some cases, those bumps may be permanent. And sometimes, a bluish skin discoloration known as the Tyndall effect happens. The color change can last for several months, but there are treatments available. In very rare cases, skin cells may die if the wrinkle fillers are not used properly. There have also been a few reported cases of blindness, scarring from skin loss and nerve paralysis. Typically, the wrinkle fillers that last longer are the ones more likely to cause side effects. Not every wrinkle-filler is right for every type of wrinkle. The least risks and best results come from using the right one correctly. That's why you should only have fillers injected by a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with ongoing, special training. Side effects are rare but can include redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. The filler may also show up under the skin as tiny bumps. This is a problem that often improves over time.

What Is Hyaluronic Acid Exactly? Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in our skin. It has an incredible capacity to attract and hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. When used in topical skincare products, hyaluronic acid acts as a humectant, trapping water against our skin's surface. When used as an injectible, it binds water from surrounding tissues to plump our skin which smooths wrinkles and restores volume. Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid in Topical Skincare Imagine the skin cells of your youth replicating deep in your skin like plump, healthy grapes that hold their moisture throughout their journey to your skin's surface. When they reach the surface, your skin holds that hydration and remains soft, supple, and glowing. As we age, those grapes lose that water on their journey and reach your skin's surface looking more like raisins. However, applying topical hyaluronic acid serums can replace that lost water, reinforce your skin's barrier, and make your skin more resilient and youthful looking. Although using hyaluronic acid for anti-aging concerns is effective, the benefits of this acid extend far beyond just making skin appear more youthful. For one, hyaluronic acid is exceedingly gentle which makes it an excellent moisturizing option for sensitive skin. Because hyaluronic acid is oil-free, it provides hydration for balancing oily skin that may be flaky and dehydrated. Whether used alone or under your favorite cream-based moisturizer or sunscreen, hyaluronic acid can benefit all skin types and concerns. How Does Hyaluronic Acid Work Differently in Injectables? Our skin loses collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid, fat, and even bone as we age. The degradation of these vital skin structures results in volume loss, sagging skin, wrinkles, lines, and loss of definition in our features. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, are smooth injectable gels that are designed to restore that lost volume and provide lift. When injected, hyaluronic acid fillers attract and bind water from surrounding tissue to themselves causing a beautiful plumping effect which smooths and lifts our skin. Some hyaluronic acid fillers manipulate the cross-linking and structure of the molecules of hyaluronic acid to make them behave differently. Depending upon the hyaluronic acid dermal filler your injection specialist recommends and the area you are treated, expect your results to last anywhere from six months to two years. An added benefit is that when you are treated with hyaluronic acid fillers, your skin may trigger your body to produce more collagen and elastin on its own.

Visible aging signs appear as people become older as a result of the action of the sun, vicious habits, and lifestyle. The earliest aging signs include thinning of the skin, loss of the fullness of facial contours, and appearance of wrinkles. The exciting news is that over the past ten years there has been an impressive array of new approved products that have become available that not only fill lines and wrinkles, but actually help re-contour, rejuvenate, volumize and restore the face, and even other areas of the body such as the hands, to a natural more youthful appearance without going under the knife. The new products do not require skin testing, have much greater longevity, and are very safe when performed by properly trained dermatologists. What is hyaluronic acid? Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is naturally present in the human body. It is found in the highest concentrations in fluids in the eyes and joints. The hyaluronic acid that is used as medicine is extracted from rooster combs or made by bacteria in the laboratory. Hyaluronic acid is a major component of skin, where it is involved in tissue repair. Is the procedures painful? Many treatments do not require anesthetics. However, some patient feels more comfortable with an anesthetic cream. Is this procedure safe? Hyaluronic acid is safe when injected appropriately. Rarely, hyaluronic acid may cause allergic reactions. Side effects are temporary and should only last a few days. They may include: Bleeding from the injection sites Swelling and bruising Redness and tenderness at the site of the injection Call your doctor immediately if you experience extreme swelling or develop a fever. How long does the effect persist? Safe, effective injectable gels that restore volume to the skin, lifting and smoothing out wrinkles and folds. Natural looking results are visible immediately and can last up to 2 years.

If you really want to up your skincare game, the best way to do so is by learning exactly what`s in the products you`re putting on your face. Sounds like common sense, but you wouldn`t believe how many people never even bother to read the ingredients lists. They`re more interested in the promises a product makes, like [erases wrinkles" or [bye-bye age spots!" Here`s the thing: there are a LOT of skincare products in the world, and they all need a way to get you to fork over your cash. It makes a lot more sense to get educated about what products are really worth paying the money for. And in the case of hyaluronic acid, one of the power players, you won`t need to pay much at all if you play your cards right What is Hyaluronic Acid Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a molecule that naturally occurs in the human body. It helps make up the connective tissues in your body and keeps hair, skin, joints, nerves, and eyes well lubricated. It holds a thousand times its weight in water, which is why it`s such a power player in keeping our skin moist and glowy. But as we grow older, our bodies naturally produce less HA. That means skin will naturally become drier and less bouncy as we age unless we replenish what`s lost in our skincare routine. When people go to med spas for procedures guess what they`re getting injected? A gel form of hyaluronic acid. How do I choose the right hyaluronic acid product? Before you go grabbing every HA product off the shelves, there are a few other tidbits to be aware of. One, HA works well alongside most other star skincare ingredients (think actives like AHAs and BHAs), so there are no worries about how it will play with the rest of your routine. Another thing to keep in mind about HA is that it does its best work at what might sound like very low concentrations. Industry standard is between one to two percent, as estheticians confirm that higher amounts can be drying to the skin. [Hyaluronic acid is a viscous polymer, meaning that it swells in water and turns it into a gel," . [There are limitations to how much you can put in a product, and still have a usable and elegant product. 1-2% or 75% hyaluronic acid often refers to a solution of hyaluronic acid, so 75% of a 1% hyaluronic acid solution would give you 0.75% hyaluronic acid overall. Most products contain about 0.2-0.5% hyaluronic acid by dry weight." So there`s more than one type of hyaluronic acid? Yes–and science tells us that multiple types are a good thing. [Hyaluronic acid has been shown to penetrate to different layers of the skin based on its molecular weight,Lower molecular weight hyaluronic acid penetrates the deepest, while higher molecular weight hyaluronic acid forms a film on the surface which slows down the loss of water from the skin due to evaporation." The best way to choose a good HA product is to check out the ingredient list. Skincare ingredients are listed in order of amount used, so the higher up on the list an ingredient is, the more of it is in the product. However, as you just learned with HA, it doesn`t have to be in a large quantity to be effective. Also, a side note: HA may also be listed as sodium hyaluronate, its salt form, so look out for that in the ingredient list as well! Remember that no matter what HA product you use, a key part of making sure the moisture it delivers does its job finish off with a moisturizer (sometimes also called an occlusive layer). It seals the prior layers of skincare in like a lid on a boiling pot of water. What happens when you boil water with no lid? It evaporates–and that`s the same thing that happens with your skincare when you apply a topical product. Sure, some of it sinks in, but it`ll be most effective if you put the lid on the pot.

What is hyaluronic acid Hyaluronic Acid is powerful stuff. But don`t let the word [acid" fool you. This gel-like water-holding molecule is a moisture-binding ingredient that helps keep skin plump and hydrated. And, it`s actually something our bodies naturally produce. Hyaluronic Acid helps retain over 1,000 times its weight in water within the cells of skin, making it an excellent moisturizer. Scientific studies have shown that Hyaluronic Acid helps improve skin hydration and production of collagen, fight free radicals, maintain skin elasticity, and even has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help with wound healing. Yes, please! So why do we need more if our bodies already produce it? Well, the average human body contains about 15 grams of Hyaluronic Acid. However, one third of that gets degraded and synthesized on a daily basis. We also produce less and less as we age. So we want more, which is why many anti-aging products contain Hyaluronic Acid. Plastic surgeons often inject Hyaluronic Acid into sunken areas of skin to plump it up, but you don`t need to get injections to reap its benefits. Just choose a serum or moisturizer that contains Hyaluronic Acid (also commonly listed as Sodium Hyaluronate) for softer, smoother, more hydrated skin.

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that occurs naturally in the skin, eyes, and joints. Its primary function is to trap water inside tissue cells, keeping the eyes moist and the joints lubricated. Hyaluronic acid also has many medical and commercial uses. It is available in a variety of forms, including: dietary supplements.face creams.serums.eye drops.injections Uses and benefits Some people use hyaluronic acid to promote skin health and fight signs of aging. It may help wounds heal, too. Some doctors also use hyaluronic acid to relieve joint pain in people with arthritis. The skin contains about halfTrusted Source of the hyaluronic acid in the body. Hyaluronic acid binds to water molecules, which helps keep the skin hydrated and supple. Levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin significantly decrease as people age, which can lead to dehydrated skin and wrinkles. Taking hyaluronic acid or using cosmetic products that contain it may improve skin hydration and reduce signs of aging Is it effective? Researchers have looked at whether hyaluronic acid is effective for a range of uses: Anti-aging The anti-aging effects of hyaluronic acid products may vary from person to person, depending on other factors that influence the skin, such as: genetics.nutrition.smoking and alcohol consumption.pollution.sun exposur.Relieving joint pain Synovial fluid lubricates and cushions the joints. This fluid contains hyaluronic acid. Over time, the hyaluronic acid in synovial fluid breaks down, which contributes to joint pain and stiffness, according to the Arthritis Foundation. Doctors can use hyaluronic acid injections to treat people who have osteoarthritis. As the body naturally produces hyaluronic acid, this substance rarely causes severe side effects or allergic reactions. However, people who have a history of severe allergic reactions, such as anaphylaxis, should be cautious when using hyaluronic acid. Its effects during pregnancy and while breastfeeding remain unknown, so women may want to avoid taking hyaluronic acid supplements during these times. In general, people should talk to a doctor before trying a new supplement, especially if they: take a prescription medication.are receiving treatment for an illness.have a chronic health condition People can always speak with a doctor about whether hyaluronic acid is right for them. Summary Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that helps retain moisture in the skin and eyes and lubricates the joints. It also plays a crucial role in wound healing by controlling inflammation and redirecting blood flow to damaged tissue. Hyaluronic acid levels decrease as people age, and this may contribute both to the physical signs of aging, such as the appearance of wrinkles, and to age-related conditions, including osteoarthritis. Although hyaluronic acid is present in numerous cosmetic and medical products, its effects can vary from person to person.

An Irreplaceable natural substance in the human body "Hyaluronic acid, which is hyaluronic acid, is actually a natural component in the human body. It is a natural linear polysaccharide present in human and animal tissues. It is mainly distributed in the vitreous, joint, umbilical cord, skin and other parts of the human body. To play important physiological functions. Hyaluronic acid is an irreplaceable natural substance in the human body. It is high in the body during embryonic period, and its body content decreases with age. If the relative content of hyaluronic acid in the human body at the age of 20 is 100%, it will decrease to 65%, 45%, 25% at 30, 50, and 60 years old, skin aging, joint deterioration, arteriosclerosis, and old eyes. The symptoms are closely related to the gradual decrease in hyaluronic acid content in the body. The amount of hyaluronic acid contained in the same age group is also different, and the content of the body of the premature aging is significantly reduced, showing many symptoms of aging. Hyaluronic acid was first discovered in 1934 by Meyer, a professor of ophthalmology at Columbia University in the United States, who first isolated hyaluronic acid from the vitreous vitreous and analyzed its structure. In addition to the bull's eye, the highest content of hyaluronic acid in nature is the cockscomb and the human baby's umbilical cord. In the 1970s, people began to extract hyaluronic acid from the cockscomb. However, the hyaluronic acid extracted from animal tissues has a good effect, but the extraction rate is extremely low, the separation process is complicated, and the yield is limited, which also makes the hyaluronic acid expensive. , up to $5,000 / kg. In the 1990s, the domestic research on the fermentation technology of hyaluronic acid began to realize industrialization, which ended the backward situation in which China can only use the cockscomb extraction method to produce hyaluronic acid. After more than 20 years of development, the current hyaluronic acid in China The level of fermentation technology, as well as the output and quality have reached the international advanced level, and become the world's largest producer of hyaluronic acid raw materials. Wide range of applications The entire industry chain is forming Hyaluronic acid has good physical and chemical properties and biological activity such as water retention, lubricity, viscoelasticity, biodegradability and biocompatibility. At present, with the large-scale industrialization of hyaluronic acid produced by microbial fermentation, the application of hyaluronic acid in medicine, biomedical materials, cosmetics, food and other fields has been greatly popularized and promoted, and gradually expanded to new application fields. Such as tumor treatment, tissue engineering, drug carrier, oral cavity, gastrointestinal, ENT, etc., has expanded the application field of hyaluronic acid, which has greatly promoted the transformation of the industry. In the field of orthopedics, there are sodium hyaluronate injections for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and shoulder arthritis; ophthalmology, there are viscoelastics for cataract surgery; surgical, for intracavitary hemostasis, anti-adhesion, and promote wound healing High-end biomedical dressing products. In plastic surgery, there are products for facial filling.

From experiments, researchers compare the efficacy of delivering hyaluronic acid gel injections to the upper lip through needle or micro-cannula injections. The most desirable results are correlated with the infiltration of hyaluronic acid to the muscle layers of the lip. One of the hallmarks of the aging face is the loss of upper lip volume. Our skin loses its moisture and elasticity, and this is even more obvious in the moisture-rich mucous regions of the lips. Coupled with the shrinking of the surrounding fat and soft tissue, the result is a decrease in the volume of the upper lip, and the wrinkles on the skin surrounding the lips only further accentuates this volume loss. Aside from these age-related changes, current standards of beauty also place an emphasis on fuller, robust lips; these reasons have contributed to the ever-increasing popularity enhancing the lips through hyaluronic acid gel injections. Hyaluronic acid (HA) gel is most commonly used by clinicians to address these anatomical changes, owing to the predictability of its results and its high safety profile. Achieving the best outcomes also involves understanding lip aesthetics: instead of haphazardly infiltrating the lip with HA and simply `plumping it up`, injecting it in specific areas (the vermillion junction or where the `dry` and `wet` parts of the upper lip meet) creates the most natural result, and thus the best cosmetic profile. Currently, dermatologists and plastic surgeons deliver HA into the upper lip by one of two methods: either by multiple injections using needle and syringe or by a microcannula, where a small tunnel is created from the corner of the lip and entire area is infiltrated. In theory, the deeper the infiltration the better: injecting too superficially produces unsightly bumps on the upper lip-but too deep into the lip muscle may produce little discernible effect. But just how deep should HA go to achieve the best results, and which method (injection or microcannula) works best? To answer these questions, researchers performed experiments on eight cadavers, and the upper lip areas were either augmented through needle injections or microcannulae infiltration. These cadavers underwent these enhancements while simulating what is done during office procedures. The enhanced lip areas were then sectioned and examined to determine the depth and distribution of the HA gel. Under the microscope, it was shown that for those that exhibit the best cosmetic results, the HA gel was located within the lip muscle (the orbicularis oris muscle), rather than simply under the skin or mucosa of the lip. And while both delivery methods appear to achieve this, a more uniform distribution was seen in those who underwent microcannula infiltration.
