What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the skin, comparable to a water reservoir, whose function is to ensure the elasticity of the skin and provide a plump complexion.
The hyaluronic acid content decreases during the natural ageing process. The skin loses its elasticity and freshness, becomes dry and the first wrinkles appear. The shape of the face changes, the cheeks sag, the corners of the mouth move downwards, the contours of the chin become slack and the face looks wider and wider. The youthful expression and the V-shaped face are lost over time.

What is the significance of hyaluronic acid in aesthetic medicine?
Hyaluronic acid plays an important role as a filler in aesthetic medicine. Here are some aspects that illustrate its importance:
Wrinkle injection
Hyaluronic acid is used to effectively fill wrinkles and deep skin folds. By injecting it under the skin, it increases the volume and reduces the appearance of wrinkles, especially nasolabial folds, marionette lines and forehead wrinkles.
Lip augmentation and contour enhancement
Hyaluronic acid can also be used to improve the volume and shape of the lips. Through targeted injections, hyaluronic acid can add lip volume, define lip contours and achieve an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Improvement of facial contours
If there is a loss of facial volume, for example in the cheeks or chin, hyaluronic acid can be used to restore volume and improve the contours of the face. This can lead to a more youthful and balanced appearance.
Hydration of the skin
Hyaluronic acid has the ability to bind large amounts of water, giving it a reputation as an excellent moisturizer. Injecting hyaluronic acid into the skin can improve hydration and hydrate the skin, which can lead to a fresher and more radiant appearance.
Natural result
A major advantage of using hyaluronic acid as a filler is that it provides a natural result. Since hyaluronic acid is a substance that is already present in our bodies, it tends to blend with the surrounding tissues and create a harmonious appearance. The end result is usually a natural and unobtrusive improvement in the treated areas.
It is important to note that the use of hyaluronic acid as a filler in aesthetic medicine should be performed by trained and qualified professionals to ensure optimal results and minimal risks. Each patient has different needs and should receive an individualized consultation to find the best possible treatment option.
How does hyaluronic acid work?
Hyaluronic acid is our skin’s “moisture reservoir” and the mainstay of connective tissue and collagen production. It is essential for maintaining the youthfulness and freshness of our skin.
Hyaluronic acid injections (or hyaluronic acid fillers) ensure plump and fresh skin: the volume increase caused by the procedure creates new reserves for the skin. The fillers restore tone, moisture and elasticity instead of sagging, tired skin.

The hyaluronic acid products used in my practice restore volume and youthfulness to the skin after the first treatment and wrinkles are immediately reduced or even disappear completely. In the case of very deep wrinkles, it is often necessary to carry out several treatments in order to achieve an optimal, satisfactory result: smooth and radiant skin.
What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid?
Minimally invasive treatment method
Wrinkle injections with hyaluronic acid are a minimally invasive method of treating wrinkles. Unlike surgical procedures, it does not require any incisions or scarring. Instead, small amounts of hyaluronic acid are injected directly into the skin using fine needles. This makes the treatment less invasive, with minimal downtime and quick recovery.
Immediately visible results and long-lasting effect
One of the remarkable benefits of wrinkle injections with hyaluronic acid is that the results are immediately visible. As soon as the hyaluronic acid is injected, it fills in the wrinkles and smoothes the skin, creating a younger and fresher appearance. The effects usually last for several months to a year, depending on the specific treatment, the patient’s metabolism and other individual factors.
Flexibility and individualization of treatment depending on the patient's needs
Wrinkle injections with hyaluronic acid offer a high degree of flexibility and customization options. The doctor can adjust the quantity and depth of the injections precisely to the patient’s needs and goals. This allows for a customized treatment to target specific wrinkles or improve volume in certain areas of the face. Every patient has different needs and the hyaluronic acid treatment can be customized accordingly.
Low risk of side effects and allergies
In general, wrinkle injections with hyaluronic acid are a safe treatment with a low risk of side effects. As hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in the body, it is well tolerated and rarely causes allergic reactions. Occasionally, mild side effects such as redness, swelling or slight pain may occur at the injection sites, but these are usually temporary and subside on their own.

Important FAQs about hyaluronic acid injections
When and for what is hyaluronic acid used?
Hyaluronic acid is a water-binding, allergen-free, very well-tolerated gel material that is completely broken down by the body after a certain shelf life. It is primarily used to fill wrinkles and to counteract the progressive ageing of the skin. Hyaluronic acid is also used to treat facial volume deficiencies in order to achieve facial rejuvenation. Hyaluronic acid creates natural results with a long shelf life.

The higher the quality of the products used, the better the collagen stimulation!
