Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance present in many living organisms. It provides volume and support to the structures in the skin. HA fillers are manufactured by a process of bacterial fermentation and are presented as a clear gels of various thicknesses and densities. This is injected directly beneath the surface of the skin where it permeates the dermal tissue. It is naturally water-loving and binds water molecules to hydrate the skin. This action assists in achieving and maintaining volume while preserving the natural appearance of the skin. Over time, the gel is gradually degradedly the body and dissolves without residue or trace. HA treatments show results which are immediately visible and typically last about 6 month-1year. Factors such as the patient’s age and skin type will affect how long treatment results are sustained. Most patients require only one treatment to obtain optimal results, however additional treatments may be required to achieve the desired outcome.
