What do you know about hyaluronic acid injection?

Nov 16,2021 | iRENICE Hyaluronic acid dermal filler

What is iRENICE® injectable hyaluronic acid?

Injectable iRENICE® hyaluronic acid (HA) is a type of temporary dermal filler. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally through out the body, with the highest concentrations in the joints, eyes, and skin. In the skin hyaluronic acid attracts water, which allows the skin to become more hydrated. As we age, the fat, muscles, bone, and skin in our face begins to thin. This loss of volume leads to either a sunken or sagging appearance of the face, fine lines, wrinkles, folds, and thin lips. Injectable HA is used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, facial folds, and to create structure, framework, and volume to the face and lips. The effects of injectable hyaluronic acid are seen immediately.

What should first be done before considering injectable hyaluronic acid?

First, an Doctor dermatologist will review the patient’s medical history and examine the condition to be treated. Areas to be treated should be kept clean. If there is a skin infection, then treatment needs to be postponed until it resolves. Patients who take blood thinners (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, certain herbal medications) should stop them two weeks prior to injection with the approval of their prescribing doctor.

When is injectable hyaluronic acid appropriate?

iRENICE® HA dermal fillers have been used for:

  • Wrinkles
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines
  • Pre-jowl sulcus
  • Lips
  • Fine lines around the mouth
  • Under the eyes
  • Cheek augmentation
  • Earlobes
  • Volume loss on the back of hands   

    Who is not a candidate for hyaluronic acid?

    HA is not recommended for patients who have:

    • Active facial or oral herpes infection
    • Infection in the treatment area
    • Uncontrolled diabetes
    • Blood-clotting problems
    • Allergy to any components of injectable hyaluronic acid
    • Patients whom are pregnant or breast-feeding

    HA should be used with caution in patients who have:

    • Current immunosuppressive therapy

    Is injectable hyaluronic acid painful?

    Topical numbing agents or anesthetic injections can be used to improve patient comfort during the injection process. Also, lidocaine is commonly incorporated into most brands of HA fillers for further comfort measures. Before and following treatment, ice may be given to ease discomfort and swelling.

    What can I expect after having had injectable hyaluronic acid?

    HA fillers are temporary, the longevity of the filler depends on the composition of the HA, location of the injection, and the patient. Patients require maintenance treatments to achieve the best results.

    What are the complications or potential side effects of injectable hyaluronic acid?

    Common side effects include:

    • Swelling
    • Bruising
    • Bleeding
    • Lumps and bumps
    • Redness

    Uncommon side effects include:

    • Numbness
    • Allergic reactions
    • Infection
    • Blisters and cyst;
    • Inflammatory reactions
    • Migration of filler material to another site
    • Bluish discoloration
