Skin aging is an inevitable phenomenon, marked by loss of volume, the appearance of wrinkles and progressive sagging of the tissues. Fortunately, advances in aesthetic medicine now make it possible to slow down these signs of time without resorting to surgery. Among the most popular solutions, hyaluronic acid injection stands out as a safe, effective and immediately visible treatment to restore radiance and harmony to the face.
At the Biolaser aesthetic & laser medical center, located in Saint-Louis-Basel near Mulhouse, we offer hyaluronic acid injections adapted to the specific needs of each patient. Discover how this innovative treatment can transform your appearance while remaining natural.
What is hyaluronic acid and why is it essential for the skin?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a molecule naturally present in our skin. Its main role is to maintain hydration and skin firmness by retaining up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Over time, its production decreases, leading to a loss of volume and the appearance of wrinkles.
Thanks to hyaluronic acid injections, it is possible to restore facial volume, smooth wrinkles and improve skin texture without heavy intervention or social eviction.
What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid injections?
- Immediate rejuvenating effect: Reduces wrinkles and restores volume to hollowed out areas.
- Deep Hydration: The skin regains suppleness and radiance thanks to its moisturizing action.
- Natural results: When injected with precision, HA enhances features without freezing expressions.
- Collagen Stimulation: Some types of HA promote cell regeneration for more toned skin.
- Non-invasive treatment: Without surgery or excessive pain, injections are an ideal alternative to facelift.
The different types of hyaluronic acid: How to choose?
Not all hyaluronic acids are created equal! Depending on the area treated and the desired effect, suitable formulas are used.
- Reticulated AH: It is denser and restores the volume of the cheekbones, chin and oval of the face.
- Non-cross-linked HA: More fluid, it intensely moisturizes and improves the quality of the skin (Skinbooster).
- Dynamic AH: Specifically designed to track facial expressions (great for lips).
Our doctors at the Biolaser center choose the most suitable hyaluronic acid according to your needs, for a natural and harmonious result.

- Nasolabial folds: Filling in wrinkles between the nose and mouth for a smoothing effect.

Hyaluronic acid vs botox comparison: Which treatment to choose?
Many patients hesitate between hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin (Botox) injections. Although these two treatments have similar aesthetic goals, their mechanisms of action are completely different.
- Hyaluronic acid
- Wrinkle filling & volume restoration
- Moisturizing & stimulating effect of collagen
- Immediate Outcomes
- Duration: 6 to 18 months
- Botox
- Relaxation of the muscles responsible for expression lines
- Preventive effect against ageing
- Visible results after a few days
- Duration: 3 to 6 months
Choosing between the two depends on your goals! Hyaluronic acid is ideal for filling and moisturizing, while Botox is perfect for smoothing dynamic wrinkles (forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines).
