Hyaluronic acid for youthful and smoother skin
Would you like to regain the youthful fullness of your skin?
Without surgical operation?
In that case, wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid should be your choice.
Wrinkles are natural symptoms of ageing. As we grow older, the skin becomes thinner and drier; it gradually loses its elasticity, and the efficiency of its self-protective mechanism against external damage diminishes. All this leads to the formation of wrinkles on the skin. Although the primary determining factor of the structure of the skin is genetics, wrinkle formation is greatly stimulated by long periods of exposition to sunlight. Smoking also might have a negative effect on the quality of our skin.
Wrinkles can be grouped into two categories:
(1) Dynamic wrinkles
These are the most disturbing wrinkles and the ones that are the most difficult to treat. Dynamic wrinkles include wrinkles around the eyes, glabellar wrinkles, wrinkles across the forehead, and wrinkles above the lips. Every time we smile or frown, wrinkles appear on our skin. These wrinkles can be reduced or treated (link?) with botox treatment.
(2) Static wrinkles
Static wrinkles are caused by gravitation, and the decreasing hydration and elasticity of the skin. Their treatment is quick and simple: they can be reduced with a filling material containing hyaluronic acid.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a transparent and viscous material naturally occurring in the skin. It is a basic component of the skin, and it contributes to the hydration of the tissues. As we grow older, the hyaluronic acid content of the skin steadily decreases; as a result, the skin becomes dehydrated, and small wrinkles appear on it.
It is never too late to prevent wrinkle formation or to treat already existing wrinkles. Currently, hyaluronic acid is one of the components of filling matters absorbed by the skin.
Hyaluronic acid fills wrinkles, increases the volume, and hydrates; thus, it contributes to the restoration of the structure of the face.
Besides aesthetic procedures, hyaluronic acid has been successfully used for arthropathy and eye surgery for more than 20 years. Its application can be considered entirely safe as its long-term effects have been documented.
A Swiss innovation against wrinkles
For wrinkle treatment procedures, BotoxClinic uses the best hyaluronic acid available, which is the award-winning, excellent, and 100% hyaluronic acid-based Teosyal line of the Swiss Laboratoires TEOXANE.
Teosyal guarantees that its gels are exceedingly clean and their quality surpasses legal requirements. This cleanness is the guarantee for perfect absorption by the epidermis.
In the course of wrinkle treatment, hyaluronic acid is injected subcutaneously with a very thin needle into the previously disinfected skin; as a result, wrinkles become smooth, facial features become softer, and the look becomes rejuvenated.
One of the main advantages of hyaluronic acid is that it is a tissue-similar substance and does not contain toxins, so it does not irritate the tissue. Over time, hyaluronic acid is completely degraded and absorbed by the body. The treatment can be repeated and corrected several times if necessary.
How is wrinkle treatment performed?
Wrinkle treatment is preceded by a medical consultation when the skin of the patient is examined, the potential results and adverse effects of the treatment are explained, and the demands of the patient are discussed.
Wrinkle treatment takes about 30 minutes. The procedure is performed as outpatient surgery under local anaesthesia. Before the treatment, local anaesthesia is administered in the form of an anaesthetic gel or injection. The filling material is administered into the location of treatment with a prefilled syringe and a very thin needle or a state-of-the-art micro cannula. As a result, wrinkle treatment might cause slight discomfort, but it’s completely painless. Following the treatment, patients can immediately continue their usual lifestyle.
How soon and for how long is the effect of wrinkle treatment visible?
Wrinkle treatment is a medical and aesthetic procedure, the result of which is visible immediately after the treatment: the skin becomes smooth, and the face becomes rejuvenated. However, the results take about 2 weeks to appear completely. It is essential that patients are sufficiently hydrated after the treatment – it can be ensured by drinking a lot. The effects of wrinkle treatment can last even for a year, but its permanence depends on the age and lifestyle of the patient, the structure of the skin, the location of treatment, and the type of the filling material. Accordingly, results might vary from patient to patient. The injected hyaluronic acid is gradually degraded by the skin. The treatment can be repeated and corrected several times.

Do wrinkles become deeper when the effect of wrinkle treatment disappear? No; after the effects have disappeared, and if the treatment is not repeated, the wrinkles of the patient will not be deeper or uglier than before the treatment.
What should I do if the effect of the filler does not please me? On the one hand, wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid can be corrected according to the patient’s wishes; on the other hand, the effect can easily be eliminated in 24 hours by injecting hyaluronidase (an enzyme).
What are the advantages of wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid? Wrinkle treatment is a simple and quick method of reducing wrinkles and making the skin smoother in order to gain a more youthful look. The result is visible immediately after a single treatment, and the effect can last even for 12 months. The result has a natural effect and it does not alter facial expressions.
Can I receive the treatment during pregnancy and breastfeeding? Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
What is the difference between wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid and botox treatment? Wrinkle treatment is used for static wrinkles, while botox treatment is used for dynamic wrinkles.
