Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is essential for the stability of our connective tissue. It binds water and thereby gives the skin its elasticity. Through natural ageing processes and increased muscle tension, lines form. The targeted relaxation of the muscle groups concerned is achieved with botulinum toxin. If, however, a line has etched itself deeply into the skin and is smoothed but not yet gone after this preliminary treatment, it can be injected with hyaluronic acid – a so-called filler: the skin is raised at this point and the line disappears.
Hyaluronic acid is used in many medical disciplines. At our practice clinic in Oldenburg we use it for a small lift of the mid-face, for smoothing lines and for filling the lips. We also use hyaluronic acid successfully to emphasise or correct individual areas: where the indication is suitable it is well suited to correcting the bridge of the nose – a nose correction without surgery – or to emphasising the chin-jaw line.
What is decisive is delicate handling, in order to avoid the most serious complications. I have years of experience with injections and have continually developed my skills in this field alongside my clinical work. Our aim is always to underline your natural beauty. Treatment with fillers has its limits: if they are exceeded, swollen-looking faces are the result. As a specialist in plastic surgery I show you the realistic possibilities of a method and offer you alternatives such as a facelift where necessary.
A wrinkle injection with hyaluronic acid costs about €350 including statutory VAT; 1 ml of dermal filler is injected. If a so-called hyaluronic acid facelift is to be carried out, the amount of material needed is considerably higher – you then quickly arrive at around €900. During the treatment we always aim to keep the price low for you through sensible use.
A cream can create a short-term effect across an area. Anyone with a deep frown line or pronounced expression lines only benefits from a targeted hyaluronic acid injection. Hyaluronic acid cream reaches its limits very quickly.
The side effects are connected above all with the injection technique. If hyaluronic acid enters a blood vessel, this may lead to an undersupply of the tissue supplied by it: pale areas of skin appear first and later turn dark; eyesight can also be affected. In such a case the hyaluronic acid is broken down with hyaluronidase. Inflammation and allergic reactions are rare. That is precisely why the treatment belongs in specialist hands.
A wrinkle injection with hyaluronic acid lasts about six months to a year, depending on the preparation and on how intensively you use your facial expressions.
We advise you honestly about where fillers work and where they are no longer enough. Arrange a consultation appointment at our practice clinic – the conversation usually takes longer than the treatment, and that is a good thing.
Hyaluronic acid is a substance produced by the body that is important for the stability of the connective tissue. It binds water and thereby gives the skin its elasticity. Injected as a filler it raises the skin at the treated spot and smooths lines that have already etched themselves deeply.

The risks depend above all on the injection technique. If hyaluronic acid enters a blood vessel, the tissue supplied by it can be undersupplied: pale areas of skin appear first and later turn dark; in the worst case eyesight can be affected. In such a case the hyaluronic acid is dissolved with hyaluronidase. Inflammation and allergic reactions are rare.
Where the indication is suitable, yes – correcting the bridge of the nose without an operation is possible, as is emphasising the chin-jaw line (jawline). On the nose in particular, delicate handling is decisive because the blood supply there is sensitive.
Fillers have clear limits. If they are exceeded, swollen-looking faces are the result. As a specialist in plastic surgery I always show you the realistic possibilities of a method – and name the alternative when an operation delivers the better result.
Avoid intensive sport and saunas for 3 days, and no facial massages on the first day. You are able to face other people immediately after the treatment – the conversation usually takes longer than the treatment itself.
