Hyaluronic acid injections
Hyaluronic acid injections
Hyaluronic acid injections are a procedure where hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, plump the lips, contour the face, firm the skin, and provide a youthful appearance.
Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in everyone’s body, but as we age, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the body decreases, leading to wrinkles and less elastic skin. The procedure for the face help restore the skin’s moisture balance, replenish the skin with collagen, and rejuvenate the skin comprehensively. It not only smooths out wrinkles but also improves the skin’s texture and plumps it. Eye injections can also resolve problems such as bags under the eyes, while lip injections (lip plumping) or lip lifts can help correct the lips’ shape and add volume to thin, narrow or asymmetrical lips. Due to its nature, hyaluronic acid does not cause side effects, and the result is extremely natural.
Facial contouring with hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin injections can be combined for deeper wrinkles.

Frequently asked questions
Which areas of the face can be treated with hyaluronic acid injections?
Hyaluronic acid injections can be performed in different areas of the face. Lip injections are a particularly popular choice for adding volume or lifting the corners of the lips. Hyaluronic acid is also effectively used to shape the cheeks and cheekbones, correct minor nasal defects, and smooth the chin and jawline. Eye injections (or under-eye injections) are effective for reducing dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines. Wrinkles on the forehead or between the eyebrows can also be treated with hyaluronic acid.
Can hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin beauty injections be combined and performed at the same time?
Yes, botulinum toxin injections and hyaluronic acid beauty injections can be used together for particularly effective results. Hyaluronic acid provides moisture and volume to the skin, while botulinum toxin relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles. By combining both techniques, longer-lasting, extremely natural-looking results can be achieved in different areas of the face. We recommend that you consult your doctor who will help you choose the best combination of treatments for your individual needs.
How much hyaluronic acid is injected per injection?
A single injection of hyaluronic acid usually involves 0.5-2 ml, depending on the area to be corrected and the desired results. The exact amount is determined individually according to the patient’s needs and the doctor’s recommendations. Smaller areas, such as the lips, require less hyaluronic acid, while larger areas of the face (e.g., cheeks, forehead, or jawline) may need more.
Is hyaluronic migration a common occurrence?
Hyaluronic migration is how a substance moves from the injection site to the surrounding tissue. Some of the most common causes of this problem are improper injection techniques or too much injected material. You can avoid it by choosing a qualified specialist – a doctor with solid experience and knowledge of facial anatomy.
