It's the word on everyone's lips.
A sugar synthesized by the body, hyaluronic acid has become the alpha and omega of the beauty industry due to its anti-aging benefits for the skin.
Long used in traditional medicine (ophthalmology, urology, general medicine, etc.), it is now found at the heart of prodigious technologies that have made BioScience GmbH internationally renowned, in particular by launching HYAcorp in 2006.
Hyaluronic acid is a key solution for all generations and their different needs.
Bioscience
From body to science
Although completely natural, hyaluronic acid only remains in the tissues of the human body for a short period of time, due to enzymatic degradation and metabolization of free radicals.
Hyaluronic acid is artificially modified by cross-linking, to form a polymer hydrogel, more resistant to degradation and biocompatible.
“
The body accepts it as if it were part of itself, unlike silicone or other foreign substances,”
explains Dr. Antoni Calmon.
From a synthetic and chemical point of view, the doctor specifies that artificial hyaluronic acid, in the form of a gel used in injection, will have different viscoelastic properties depending on the use that one wants to obtain.
Extremely fluid, it is used in mesotherapy to moisturize the skin.
A little denser, it acts as

in subcutaneous micro-injections, keeping a certain flexibility to follow facial expressions, while very firm, it will allow you to sculpt fixed areas such as the chin and cheekbones.
Naturally hydrating, hyaluronic acid also has volumizing properties on the buttocks or calves, and rejuvenation on the hands, for example.
Precautionary principles
Medical procedures in their own right, injections of hyaluronic acid do, however, require some precautions for use, of which BioScience is a valuable relay to health professionals.
Thus, as recommended by Dr. Antoni Calmon, it is important to ask what type of hyaluronic acid is used and to specify the desired result, not hesitating to ask as many questions as possible to the practitioner to ensure the desired effect.
The product used must have CE marking, insofar as this guarantees sterilization and traceability in accordance with European legislation through the numerous controls required for its marketing... Choose your practitioner carefully by checking that he is an experienced doctor (not a beautician or
The doctor must transmit as much information as possible to the patient, warn him of possible post-treatment side effects or even study his situation and his medical history.
He must also respect the rules of hygiene and asepsis during the intervention and monitor the patient for several weeks downstream.
Finally, in the event of a

, certain precautions must be taken in terms of time and quantity of product injected (which must remain minimal) in order to achieve the expected result and minimize the risks.
Your doctor will be able to guide you.
“For example, it is totally inadvisable to inject more than the maximum quantity recommended by the laboratory within fifteen days of each other”
, confirms Dr. Antoni Calmon.
Patience, then… and caution!
