Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in skin tissue. it participates in deep hydration by maintaining the water present in the skin.
Hyaluronic acid is also a molecule widely used in care creams for its hydrating and smoothing effects. However, hyaluronic acid does not then penetrate deeply and its action then remains very limited.
Hyaluronic acid is also a synthetic product, manufactured by biotechnology processes. It allows:
Hyaluronic acid is the most widely used dermal filler in the world, is biodegradable, non-allergenic, and does not require allergy testing before injection.
The hyaluronic acid is for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of the skin, treat a wrinkle or furrow, or restore facial harmony by playing with the volumes of the various anatomical areas of the face.
The hyaluronic acid-based gels are more or less reticulated (dense).
The choice of the hyaluronic acid gel injected is made according to the area to be treated, the anatomical characteristics of each patient and the expected results.
Depending on the viscosity of the gel and its cross-linking process as well as the size of the hyaluronic acid particles, it is possible to :
The first signs of skin aging, small depressions appear on the skin.
They are called “fine lines” from the age of twenty-five, followed by wrinkles which are a more pronounced and difficult to treat version.
These fine lines can be faded with a fluid Hyaluronic acid.
Regarding fine lines around the mouth: contrary to popular belief, it is possible to smooth this area without excess for a natural result.
The blanching techniques are perfectly adapted to these indications. For this, Dr. Gianfermi uses a range of hyaluronic acid that allows for injection into the dermis without side effects.
Marked dark circles are either constitutional, for example for patients from the Mediterranean region, or secondary to aging. Indeed, with time we lose cheek fat volumes and the bony rim of the eye becomes more visible. At the same time, the fat under the skin of the eyelid becomes thinner and allows the subcutaneous vein network to appear. This is when the dark circles become bluer.
The use of a volumizing hyaluronic acid associated with a second dedicated to the circle or with the surgical technique of lipofilling allows for treatment of both of these components of a visible dark circle.
Grâce aux propriétés d’hydratation profonde des boosters cutanés avec la technique du mésolift.
L’acide hyaluronique utilisé est très peu réticulé, il n’y a donc pas d’effet volumateur, seulement un fort pouvoir hydratant associé à un coup d’éclat et une réactivation des cellules cutanées productrices de collagène.
Operated by Dr. Gianfermi, I am infinitely grateful for the exceptional work he did on me. He knew how to listen to me and to identify my needs with precision. The result is natural and far exceeds my expectations. Thanks also to Betty, his great assistant, for her reassuring presence after the operation and her professionalism. They are both wonderful people. I don't have the words to express my gratitude to them... Thank you for everything.
Hyaluronic acid naturally contains a local anesthetic, so there is no need to apply an anesthetic cream before the injection except for the lips.
In addition, the use of very fine needles or micro-cannulas (long, thin, round-tipped device), is not very traumatic and therefore not very painful
Dr. Gianfermi performs the injection in a half-sitting position to better appreciate the volumes of the face.
Thanks to the product and Dr. Gianfermi’s technique, the risk of bruising is considerably reduced.
The injection is done gradually to correct any asymmetries and reduce post-injection edema.
The results are visible immediately after the injection.
They last between 6 to 18 months depending on the area treated and the type of hyaluronic acid used.
Afterwards, re-treatment of the area is necessary to maintain the results.
A rested, harmonious and natural looking face is visible immediately after the injection. An improvement is still to be noted during the 15J following the treatment.
Hyaluronic acid is an absorbable product.
Results are visible for 6 to 12 months depending on the area treated and the hyaluronic acid gel used.
After that, re-treatment of the area is necessary to maintain the results.
During the consultation prior to the hyaluronic acid injection, Dr. Gianfermi determines the number of sessions needed to achieve the desired results.
An estimate, informed consent and treatment plan are given to the patient during this consultation.
They specify the areas injected, the number of syringes and the price.
Indeed from 4 syringes, except in special cases, it is preferable to plan several sessions spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart.
Yes, hyaluronic acid cannot be injected if you have an autoimmune disease or if you have had injections of non-degradable products in the area to be treated.
Yes, it is best to avoid taking medications that cause bruising (aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs).
If the area to be injected is subject to herpes outbreaks (e.g. injection in the lips), it is prudent to take an anti-herpes treatment in the 48 hours preceding the injection and the 3 days following.
