How to choose the right hyaluronic acid preparation for injections?

In the modern world, more and more girls are turning to various injection cosmetology procedures. Injections of the same hyaluronic acid are extremely popular due to their effect and versatility: preparations based on hyaluronic acid are ways to enlarge lips, moisturize skin, and tighten facial contours. However, it should be understood that not all beauty injections are equally effective. There are many types of injections, even more brands, drugs differ in composition, effectiveness, and reputation. How to choose the right drug?

Choosing a hyaluronic acid preparation: what should you pay attention to?

If we are talking about the selection of a hyaluronic acid filler for contouring, for example, for lip augmentation, then here it is worth relying, rather, on the opinion of your cosmetologist on this matter. As a rule, the doctor has already, by trial and error, found the ideal option with which he is used to working. And if you decide to make a choice in favor of another drug, there will be a high probability that, out of habit, the result will be unpredictable. However, hyaluronic acid preparations are used not only and not so much for contouring, they are also a rather important element of caring, moisturizing procedures. We are talking about the procedures of biorevitalization and mesotherapy.

The main component of all biorevitalizants is hyaluronic acid. It can be stabilized and unstabilized. The first is used in fillers for contour plastics (lip augmentation, filling of nasolabial folds), as it can keep volume. It remains in the skin for a long time, providing a long-term rejuvenation effect. The second deeply moisturizes the skin, attracting and holding water molecules, and is used in biorevitalization.

Preparations for biorevitalization differ in the concentration of hyaluronic acid, the presence of additional ingredients and, of course, the price. There is a myth: the higher the concentration of hyaluronic acid in the preparation, the better. This is a dangerous delusion! On the contrary, if your skin is thin, or too dry and dehydrated, then an excess of hyaluronic acid can become really dangerous.

The most popular and common are Juvederm, Hyalual, Filorga, Jalucomplex, Viskoderm. All these biorevitalizers differ in the concentration of hyaluronic acid, as well as the presence of any auxiliary substances. Each of them is suitable for different skin types, for different indications. Again, when choosing a drug, it is best to consult with your beautician, who will help you choose the best result, based on the condition of your skin at the moment. The choice of hyaluronic acid largely depends on what method you are going to apply it – external or injectable. Quite often in pharmacies you can find hyaluronic acid in its pure form, or in a mixture with a small amount of excipients.

Of course, it gives an effective result, but before using, in any case, it is very important to consult with your cosmetologist: hyaluronic acid is still the most active substance, which means that various kinds of allergic reactions are not excluded. In its pure form, such hyaluronic acid is definitely not worth using, but it serves as an excellent active additive to your daily moisturizer, it will help to enrich it, make it more effective.
