A comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation
Injectable products encompass various techniques for addressing wrinkles, volume and skin quality.
Depending on needs, these treatments can smooth, hydrate, restructure or stimulate the skin in a targeted and progressive manner.
Each protocol is personalized after evaluation, in order to achieve a natural and harmonious result.
The different treatments
Hyaluronic acid: restoring volume and hydration
Hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally present in the skin. When injected, it can:
- fill wrinkles (furrows, folds, perioral wrinkles)
- restore volume (cheekbones, lips, chin, facial oval)
- improve skin hydration (skinbooster)
Results are visible quickly and last an average of 6 to 18 months.
Botulinum toxin: smoothing expression lines
Botulinum toxin works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for wrinkles.
Main indications:
- forehead lines
- frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- crow's feet
It can also be used for certain indications of the lower face and neck.
Results appear within a few days and last an average of 4 to 6 months.
Profhilo®: improving skin quality
Profhilo® is an injectable based on pure hyaluronic acid, without a direct volumizing effect.
It acts through bio-remodeling:
- stimulates collagen and elastin production
- improves elasticity and firmness
- intensely hydrates the skin
Areas treated: face, neck, décolleté, hands (and sometimes arms)
The protocol generally includes 2 sessions spaced one month apart, with results lasting 6 to 12 months.
How injections are performed
Injections are performed in the clinic using fine needles or microcannulas.
- Duration: 15 to 30 minutes
- Return to activities: immediate
- Discomfort: minimal and transient
Depending on the treatment, multiple sessions or regular maintenance may be recommended.
Post-treatment precautions
- avoid sport, sauna and hot baths for 24 to 48 hours
- do not massage injected areas (as indicated)
- avoid immediate sun exposure
- moisturize skin regularly
Results and follow-up
Results depend on:
- the type of product used
- the area treated
- the patient's metabolism
These treatments are temporary and require maintenance to sustain results over time.
