What is it for?
Cross-linked hyaluronic acid is used to build up volume. Free (non-cross-linked) hyaluronic acid is a natural component of our skin that stores water and makes the skin look elastic and plump. A hyaluronic acid booster (Profhilo – see mesotherapy) can moisturise the skin and smooth out fine wrinkles. However, you need cross-linked hyaluronic acid if you want to replace lost volume or give the face a better contour.
What do I have to consider before treatment?
-
Blood thinners should not be taken until 1 week before the treatment (e.g. Aspirin, Marcoumar, Ibuprofen, etc.)
-
Avoid caffeine/tea and alcoholic drinks (e.g. cola, energy drinks, coffee, green tea, etc.) 24 hours before the treatment.
-
It is best not to put make-up on and be well nourished for the treatment
-
if you suffer from herpes, we recommend taking antivirals prophylactically (these can be prescribed by your GP)

How does the treatment work?
-
Fotos are taken.
-
The skin is cleansed and disinfected.
-
The area where the product is to be applied is marked except for the lips.
-
A local anaesthetic is usually not necessary as the products already contain anaesthetics.
-
The product is then injected under the skin using a needle or cannula.
-
The skin is then cleansed again.
Risks and side effects
- common: redness, swelling and haematoma (bruising), pain, a feeling of pressure and tension, nodules or asymmetries due to the swelling
- Rarely: nodules/granuloma formation, activation of herpes, migration of the filler, infections
- very rare: allergy or anaphylaxis, tissue death (necrosis), blindness (when treating the face), Tyndall effect (blue shimmering through of the filler), malar oedema (bulging swelling on the cheekbone)
