hyaluronic acid injection

At Aladdin Aesthetic Clinic, we use multiple types of hyaluronic acid according to the purpose of the procedure and the area to be treated. Below are the characteristics of each type of hyaluronic acid.

Jubiderm Ultra (Jubiterm series)

First, the JUVIDERM series is manufactured by Allergan and is the first hyaluronic acid in Japan to be approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and is world-renowned. JUVIDERM ULTRA is suitable for correction of fine to severe facial wrinkles and furrows, especially around the mouth and at the corners of the mouth. It is also commonly used for lip treatments.

Jubiderm Voluma (Jubiterm series)

One of the Jubiderm series, it is used especially for deep volume correction. It is effective in increasing volume in the cheeks and temples and reducing cheek puckering.

Jubiderm Volift (Jubiterm series)

One of the Jubiderm series, it is used to fill in deep wrinkles and furrows in the forehead and laugh lines. It is also used to improve contour lines and make the face smoother.

Jubiderm Volbella (Jubiterm series)

One of the Jubiderm series, it is used primarily for lip augmentation and correction of wrinkles and furrows around the mouth. It is also used to improve depressions and dark circles around the eyes.

Jubiderm Borax (Jubiterm series)

It is part of the JUVIDERM series and is the strongest, hardest, and most elastic hyaluronic acid in the series. It is therefore an excellent hyaluronic acid for facial line contouring and for the chin and nose.

Restyrenolide ((Restylane series)

Restylane is a hyaluronic acid produced by the Swedish-headquartered Galderma. Restylane Lido is particularly well suited for correcting hollows and fine lines under the eyes.

Restylane Lift Lido (Restylane series)

One of the Restylane series, it is used to increase cheek volume and fill in wrinkles and furrows by injecting into a deeper skin layer than Restylane Lide above.

Pinehacon Tor/Ultra

This hyaluronic acid is suitable for contouring the cheeks and chin and correcting deep wrinkles. It is also suitable for increasing lip volume and filling in moderate wrinkles and furrows.

 

Hyaluronic acid injections can tighten and rejuvenate the skin, as well as bring out its firmness and luster.

Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in the body and helps maintain skin elasticity and moisture. However, with age, its production declines and skin becomes drier as a result, with the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid injections reverse these effects, resulting in more youthful, smoother skin.

In addition, hyaluronic acid injections usually take only a few minutes to a few dozen minutes to complete the procedure, allowing patients to return to their daily lives without major disruption.

In some people, the injection site may appear swollen, red, sore, bruised, hardened, or unnatural looking.

Some redness at the injection site may occur during hyaluronic acid injection treatment, but most people will not notice it on the same day.

On the day of treatment, there may be a slight sensation of tightness in the skin, but this will diminish over time. In addition, there may be some internal bleeding, but this will become less noticeable over time.

However, if you experience strong discomfort or abnormality, it is recommended that you consult your physician.

(2) Examination and checkup

The patient's skin condition is checked to determine the area and amount to be injected. At this point, we may also take pictures of the area to be injected, if necessary.

Preparation before treatment

The injection site is cleaned and a local anesthetic cream is applied as needed. This is to alleviate discomfort caused by the injection.

Hyaluronic acid is injected into pre-determined areas. A fine needle is used, and the procedure is completed in a few minutes to a few dozen minutes.

After the procedure, a light massage is performed to ensure even distribution. A cooling pad may then be applied.

Patients will be provided with thorough advice on post-treatment care. This includes avoiding the injection site for a certain period of time and refraining from exercise for a while, as appropriate to the patient's situation.

(7) Follow-up

The patient will come back to our clinic in a few days or weeks to check the results of the treatment and perform a final check for any problems. This is to ensure that the results are correct and to provide further treatment if necessary.

The duration of hyaluronic acid depends on the area to be treated, the type of hyaluronic acid used, and the individual's constitution, but generally ranges from 6 months to 1 year, although some hyaluronic acid products can last up to 2 years.

Q.Do I need any special care after the treatment?

Recovery time after the procedure is usually short and does not require much special care. However, there may be temporary redness and swelling at the injection site.
