Part 16 Q: Explain injectables. What are your options?

Hyaluronic acid
We use hyaluronic acid in our dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a completely naturally occurring substance that is found in all of our cells and all of our organs. It’s part of the human body and your body manufacturs its own hyaluronic acid. When we use it in injectables it actually stimulates the production of your own hyaluronic acid as well as collagen. It’s very bio compatible, which is why we have very few problems when using dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid comes in two different properties, stiff and soft, and we use each one differently depending on what area we’re injecting them into. A stiffer, thicker hyaluronic acid is used during a chin augmentation or a non-surgical rhinoplasty. If we’re treating finer lines or soft tissue like the lips, or getting rid of the dark circles under eyes, we use a softer product of hyaluronic acid.
