DERMAL FILLING
For lips, wrinkles and facial contours
Natural beauty lift
The resilience and youthful contours of your skin - its ability to counter the effects of time, wind and weather - owes much to hyaluronic acid. It exists in all life and its most important function is to bear and bind water.
Impressions of beauty change over time, as do our faces as we age. Yet each of us has good natural lines that can be emphasized and improve.
Natural beauty for as long as you like
One of the great advantages of this product range is that it is long-lasting but not permanent. How long a treatment holds its effect is very individual. This depends on many factors, such as your age, skin type, life style and muscle activity, as well as on the injection technique.
Gel particles are absorbed so slowly that you have ample time for maintenance treatments. As the gel breaks down, water takes its place. The less concentrated the gel becomes, the more water it is able to bind. When totally absorbed the gel disappears unnoticed from the body.
Most patients choose to have a follow-up treatment six to twelve months after an initial treatment of wrinkles of facial contouring. After lip treatments, a follow-up is normally needed after about six months.
You always have the choice to continue or change the combination of treatments, and the procedure can be repeated as often as you like. You are always in charge of your looks.
We prefer not to use permanent products at clinic42 due to their high incidence of complications. We also want all our patients to look great, now and in the decades to come. With permanent fillers there is no guarantee that what looks good now will still be appropriate in 20 or 30 years time
Treatment facts and what you may be wondering
Gaining the look you desire is as easy as it is quick. And the results are instantaneous. Nor pre-testing is needed and a session often takes less than 30 minutes.
Depending on the effects desired and initial treatment is usually maintained with occasional follow-up treatments. For wrinkle treatments no pain relief is generally necessary, however it can be easily arranged at your request. When enhancing the lips, pain relief in the form of a local anaesthetic is often used.
During treatment the crystal-clear gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very thin needle.
The gel then gives natural volume and smoothes the wrinkles. The ability of the products to integrate with adjacent tissues allows the free passage of vital nutritive elements like oxygen and hormones to pass between fragments of the gel. The result is healthy, natural looking skin.
After the treatment some common injection-related reactions may occur, such as swelling, redness, pain, itching, discoloration and tenderness at the implant site. These typically resolve spontaneously within one two days after injection into the skin and within a week after injection into the lips.
Other types of reactions are very rate, but about 1 in 10000 treated patients have experienced localized reactions thought to be of a hypersensitivity nature. These have usually consisted of swelling at the implant site, sometimes affecting the surrounding tissues. Redness, tenderness and rarely acne-like formations have also been reported. These reactions have either started a few days after injection or after a delay of two to four weeks, and have generally been described as mild to moderate and self-limiting with an average duration of two weeks.
