Patients are advised to avoid sport, direct sun, sauna and solarium for a few days afterwards.

Hyaluronic-acid filler treatment at DR.MEK's Berlin-Charlottenburg practice uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid to smooth wrinkles, restore lost volume and refresh the contours of the face. Hyaluronic acid is a molecule that occurs naturally in the skin, where it acts as a moisture reservoir. With age the skin's own stores decline, contributing to fine lines, hollowing and a loss of firmness. Injected filler can bind a high amount of water in the tissue, which lifts and supports the skin from underneath and may improve the appearance of folds and volume loss. The treatment starts with a consultation in which the dermatologist discusses goals and assesses the areas of concern. To keep the procedure comfortable, the area is numbed before the filler is placed with fine needles or a cannula. Because the product integrates with the surrounding tissue, results are generally visible straight away, with any initial swelling settling over the following days. The practice states that it works only with well-researched products from reputable, established brands. After treatment, patients are advised to take a few precautionary days away from intense sport, direct sunlight, sauna and solarium to protect the skin while it settles. Mild redness, swelling or small bruises at the injection points are possible and typically short-lived. Contraindications include pregnancy, breastfeeding and a known allergy to hyaluronic acid, which is why a consultation precedes any treatment. Hyaluronic-acid filler may also be combined with botulinum toxin as part of a broader, individualised rejuvenation plan.
