Facial injections

How do you find your way through all the products offered by different practitioners for different indications?
By understanding some simple notions about the different types of aging and the indications and effects of each product. Even if some products are to be avoided, notably non-absorbable products, most products are interesting and have a place as long as their precise indications are respected without exceeding them.

Morphological types of aging :

Broadly speaking, there are 2 types of ageing:

- Aging due to tissue wasting, resulting in a hollowed, squelched face.
- Aging due to cutaneous-muscular slackening, with hyperkinetic wrinkles and tissue ptosis.

These 2 types of aging can be present in the same person.

Possible types of injections :

There are 3 types of injection:

- Botulinum toxin, a paralytic product
- Injectable fillers or implants(hyaluronic acid, collagen, polylactic acid, etc.)
- Fat autografts, i.e. lipofilling by reinjecting one's own fat after centrifugation
