Hylaform®
As people age, the collagen and hyaluronic acid that is produced naturally in the body begins to diminish, causing fine lines, wrinkles and creases to appear and progress. An effective way to improve the appearance of these lines and wrinkles is to inject the skin with what nature has taken away... collagen and hyaluronic acid.
Hylaform® gel is a purified, natural avian-based substance that adds volume and smoothness to the skin by mimicking the effects of the skin's natural hyaluronic acid.
Hylaform offers immediate improvement in the appearance of nasolabial folds, marionette lines, lip line crevices (smoker's lines) and moderate facial wrinkles. Hylaform is also commonly used to enhance lip fullness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Hylaform® safe?
Yes. Hylaform® has been used in international markets for nearly a decade and has a proven safety record. However, it is not intended for the very small percentage of people with allergies to avian proteins.
Will I experience any side effects from the treatment?
Side effects from Hylaform® are mild and can include some temporary redness, swelling, bruising and itching at the injection site.
How often will I need to repeat the treatment?
After your initial treatment, maintenance injections are recommended three or four times per year. However each person is different and the rate at which your body absorbs this type of hylauronic acid will determine the frequency of maintenance injections.
What will happen if I choose not to have maintenance injections?
Over time your body will absorb the Hylaform® and your skin will appear as it did prior to the initial treatment.
How long does a Hylaform® treatment take?
The length of the procedure depends on the size of the area treated. Typically the procedure is complete in less than an hour.
