HA Smooth is an injectable skin treatment that is often known as a form of ‘injectable skincare’. HA Smooth treatment areas can target the facial regions, including the eyes. HA Smooth for hands is also another effective way to use HA Smooth injections for an overall more youthful appearance. However, despite being a safe treatment to help address ageing skin, many people do not understand what HA Smooth treatment is, why it is effective, and what are the types of conditions that can be treated with HA Smooth.
HA Smooth injections work by increasing the hydration levels within the skin layers itself. Its high hyaluronic acid spreads below the surface of the skin, plumping up the skin layers and stimulating the regeneration of collagen and elastin naturally over time.
When choosing the right skin treatment for your skin, it is important to be well-versed with what the treatment actually is and its benefits. This is so that you can identify whether you are the right candidate for that treatment. HA Smooth skin injections are often well-liked and well-tolerated by many due to a myriad of benefits!
Biocompatibility simply means how well the treatment and the materials that it is made out of will be compatible for your skin. This refers also to how well your body will adapt to the treatment, or reject it. HA Smooth injections consist of a low and high-molecular weight hyaluronic acid (L-HA and H-HA). The L-HA is released slowly from the hybrid complexes, which reduces the chances of the body producing an inflammatory response to something being introduced into the body (the hyaluronic acid via injection to the skin).
The lack of additive agents like BDDE (1,4-butanedial diglycidyl) also contributes to its safety and biocompatibility – less additive agents means less risk of your body reacting to a foreign material. Unless you have an allergy to hyaluronic acid, there is very minimal risk of an adverse reaction in all HA Smooth treatment areas.
The HA Smooth NYAHCO technology provides a stable form of hyaluronic acid in high concentration. The stability of it comes from its formulation whereby the thermal cross-linking results in the formation of hybrid hyaluronic acid complexes, where there is the combination of L-HA and H-HA. The main advantage of this is longevity as hybrid hyaluronic acid complexes are more stable and can last in the skin for about 28 days from the first injection set.
This hybrid of hyaluronic acid compounds also gives an added advantage: Hydration with remodelling. Hydration happens because the hyaluronic acid that is injected into the dermis is ‘hydrophilic’. This means that it is highly attracted to water, and water travels to the areas where HA is injected. Hence, HA Smooth hydrates the skin from the inside out. The ‘lifting’ effect happens from the increased hydration and also because HA Smooth stimulates the regeneration of Type I, II, IV, and VII collagen, which are necessary for skin elasticity and mechanical strength.
All injectable treatments do carry the risk of some swelling and bruising over the injection sites, but an advantage of HA Smooth is its minimal injection sites (10 in total over the face or the neck) and the use of a small 29g TW needle. This usually ensures that any swelling or redness after the treatment is small, similar to mosquito bites, and can easily be covered up by makeup. Not having any BDDE cross-linking in HA Smooth treatments in Singapore also makes sure that there is minimal risk of lumps under the skin. Since side effects are so minimal, an individual can normally return to their daily activities without downtime (aside from avoiding excessive strenuous activity for a couple of days).
An advantage of choosing HA Smooth is that it can be used over multiple treatment areas. When HA Smooth is used around the eyes and mouth regions, it helps to smoothen out deep wrinkles or fine lines to create a more youthful appearance. HA Smooth for hands is also quite a popular treatment as the sagging skin around our hands is usually the first tell-tale sign of ageing!
