Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid in Lausanne

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid, a component naturally present in the skin, is considered a filling treatment that rehydrates the skin and restores lost volume. Depending on the density of the gel used, it can fill in a wrinkle, redefine volume or hydrate an area, with a natural and fully reversible result. Indicated for wrinkles, lips, under-eye circles or facial contours, it is performed at Maison Tóā, in Lausanne, after a personalised medical assessment.

  • Indication: wrinkles and folds · volume loss (lips, cheekbones, under-eye circles) · facial contours
  • Duration: 40 minutes

What is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is an injectable filling treatment based on a molecule naturally present in the tissues, which rehydrates the skin and restores lost volume. Depending on the density of the gel, it can fill in wrinkles, redefine volumes and hydrate superficial areas, with a natural result.

Objective

Fill in wrinkles, restore volume, rehydrate the skin and harmonise your features, for a natural result tailored to your face.

Principle

Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water: injected into the skin, it mechanically fills the wrinkles and hollows where it is placed. In the superficial dermis, it maintains tissue hydration; in the deep dermis, it restores volume lost with age and produces a lifting effect.

Active ingredient

Hyaluronic acid comes in gels of different densities, tailored to the needs of each area. It is biocompatible and absorbable. The result is reversible: it can be dissolved with a hyaluronidase injection if needed.

Differences from other injections

Unlike biostimulators (Sculptra®, Radiesse®), which gradually stimulate collagen production, hyaluronic acid fills immediately and remains reversible. It is particularly well suited to fine, mobile areas such as the lips or under-eye circles.

Indications and treated areas

With age, the body produces less hyaluronic acid, which leads to more dehydrated skin and fading volume. Injections restore hydration, fill in wrinkles and give back volume to the areas concerned. The indication is confirmed during a personalised medical consultation.

Main indications

Wrinkles and folds, volume loss (lips, cheekbones, under-eye circles) and facial contours to redefine.

Secondary indications

Medical rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) and body contouring with a dedicated product (Hyacorp®).

Treated areas

The lips, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, cheekbones, chin, nose, jawline, under-eye circles and temples.

Specific areas

On the buttocks, the Hyacorp® product corrects volume irregularities and restores shape and firmness.

Limitations

Hyaluronic acid does not durably stimulate collagen the way a biostimulator does, and it does not replace a surgical procedure when one is indicated.

What happens during the session?

The treatment is preceded by a medical consultation, then carried out according to a precise protocol at our clinic in Lausanne.

        First results

        The result is visible immediately after the injection, then settles in over the following days.

        Settling

        The final appearance can be assessed after around 15 days, once the product has fully settled in.

        Duration

        The effects last on average 6 to 18 months depending on the product, the area and metabolism (often 12 to 18 months for the cheekbones and eye contour).

        Maintenance

        A touch-up or maintenance session can be discussed during the consultation to preserve a natural result over time.

        Variability

        Duration depends on the type of hyaluronic acid, the area injected, metabolism, lifestyle and muscle dynamics. Results can vary from person to person.

        Contraindications and side effects

        What are the contraindications?

        Hyaluronic acid is not recommended in case of a known allergy to the product or an active skin infection at the injection site. As a precaution, it is not performed during pregnancy or in case of active autoimmune disease.

        Possible side effects

        Recovery is generally straightforward: slight redness that fades within a few hours, sometimes mild swelling or small transient bruises. More rarely, a nodule, asymmetry or an inflammatory reaction may occur.

        An exceptional but serious complication exists: obstruction of a blood vessel by the product, which requires immediate treatment. Injections are performed by doctors who have hyaluronidase on hand to dissolve the gel in an emergency. Skin blanching, unusual pain or vision disturbance after the injection must be reported to the clinic without delay.

        Alternatives and complementary treatments

        Treatment alternatives

        To restore volume on the sides of the face, collagen stimulators such as Sculptra® or Radiesse® are often recommended, as they achieve a natural result that lasts over the long term. For skin quality and hydration, Profhilo® or Skinboosters are also a good option. For expression lines, Botox®.

        Combinations with other treatments

        Hyaluronic acid can be combined with Botox® (expression lines), a biostimulator (structural volume) or Skinboosters (hydration).
