Hyaluronic Acid Wrinkle Filler

Hyaluronic acid filler placed directly into static lines and folds — such as the nasolabial folds running from nose to mouth, marionette lines or deeper forehead and glabellar creases — to smooth them and restore a softer contour. Unlike botulinum toxin, which relaxes muscles, filler physically supports and fills the crease, and the gel can be dissolved if an adjustment is ever wanted.

Hyaluronic acid wrinkle filler treats the static lines and folds that remain visible even when the face is at rest, which botulinum toxin alone cannot fully address. A soft, cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel is injected beneath the line to support and smooth it — common targets include the nasolabial folds, marionette lines at the corners of the mouth, and deeper folds on the forehead or between the brows. Because hyaluronic acid attracts water, it also adds a subtle plumping and hydrating effect to the treated area. At Jurenko Clinic the physician first assesses the face as a whole, since softening one fold often works best alongside light support elsewhere, and agrees a plan that keeps proportions natural. Numbing cream is applied and most fillers also contain lidocaine, so the procedure is generally comfortable; the gel is placed with a fine needle or a blunt cannula depending on the area. Results are visible immediately and continue to settle over one to two weeks as any minor swelling resolves, with small bruises possible for a few days. Hyaluronic acid results typically last around nine to eighteen months depending on the product and the area before the gel is gradually broken down by the body. A key safety feature is that hyaluronic acid can be dissolved with hyaluronidase should you wish to reverse or fine-tune a result. The treatment suits adults bothered by set lines and folds; it is reviewed for suitability and is not performed in pregnancy or breastfeeding.
