Physician or senior nurse injector

A firmer, cross-linked hyaluronic acid is placed deep, on the periosteum over the cheekbone or jaw. It restores the support the layers above used to rest on.

Where it works

Placing it deep is the difference between structure and puffiness. A little on bone lifts more than a lot under the skin.

What it cannot do

It is not a facelift and it will not tighten loose skin. Every syringe we use can be dissolved, and the reversal agent is on the tray at every appointment.

Results last: 9 to 18 months. Yours is set at the consultation.
