Hyaluronic acid: cheekbones

Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in our body and has the role of a natural sponge.

It can capture up to a thousand times its weight in water. It therefore ensures hydration, firmness and tone of the skin. With age, this active ingredient is absorbed and the skin loses its elasticity and volume. Hyaluronic acid injections are therefore extremely effective in deeply moisturizing the skin or in reshaping the face by restoring lost volume.

Why do injections in the cheekbones?

The cheekbones play an essential role in the harmony of the face. Hyaluronic acid injections in the cheekbones are therefore very effective. They can be carried out for two reasons:

  • Sagging skin : With age, subcutaneous fat melts and sags the cheekbones. The oval of the face is then less harmonious and the face becomes sad and tired. In this context, hyaluronic acid injections make it possible to fill in the sagging area in order to regain volume. The cheekbones are then reshaped and the face rejuvenated and illuminated.
  • Naturally flat cheekbones : Some people, however, resort to hyaluronic acid injections in the cheekbones because this area is naturally flat. The goal is therefore to enhance the cheekbones and shape them.

The advantage of this process is that the face benefits from a natural and surgically free reshaping
