Q&A

Do Hyaluronic acid fillers dissolve?

Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase, an enzyme family able to revert the filler effect, making it a safer and convenient choice.

How do Hyaluronic acid fillers work?

Hyaluronic fillers treatment involves a gel substance injected with the help of a needle or a cannula in certain parts of the face or body. This gel absorbs more water and retains moisture, consequently adding more volume to that area, as well as hydration and skin rejuvenation.

The filling and moisturizing effects are immediate. Other long-term effects, such as stimulation of the production of new collagen and elastin, begin within a few days but take longer to produce effective results.

Is Hyaluronic acid permanent?

HA fillers can last from one month to much longer before being gradually absorbed by the body.

Is Hyaluronic acid good for skin?

Hyaluronic acid is a natural molecule found in our bodies throughout the connective issue surrounding the cells. Hyaluronic acid holds 1000x its weight in water giving skin structure and a hydrated and plump effect. It also has many benefits such as tissue repair, skin rejuvenation, and skin texture improvement.

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a substance that occurs naturally in the body throughout connective, epithelial, and neural tissues. It acts as a tissue lubricant and is involved in different cellular processes such as cell proliferation and differentiation among others.

What are enzymes?

pbserum enzymes are of bacterial origin and were developed through a complex biotechnological process exclusive to pbserum. A key factor is the use of genetic DNA recombination technology, known as recombinant technology, to obtain enzymes synthesized by bacterial microorganisms, yet having the same structure and sequence as the human enzyme. Thanks to this, procedures based on recombinant enzymes offer a low level of immunogenicity, allowing a safe, effective, pure and biological treatment.

Are HA fillers safe?

Dermal fillers are perfectly safe for use within the skin because they are made from a gel-like substance that closely resembles a natural bodily sugar, hyaluronic acid (HA). This sugar is essential to skin laxity, bounce, and fullness, so it’s only natural to emulate it within dermal filler treatment. Because this sugar is naturally occurring, the body very freely breaks it down at no complaint to your system and is incredibly unlikely to reject it.
