What are Hydration Treatments?

Hydration is an important part of achieving a healthy skin tone and elasticity. However, our skin may dry out as its natural levels of hyaluronic acid diminish due to age, smoking, sun exposure, and environmental factors. This is most noticeable in areas that are more exposed to the elements, such as the face, neck and hands. 
Regardless of anything else we do to protect our skin, poor hydration may undermine our efforts, leaving the skin looking noticeably damaged. Over-the-counter creams only temporarily moisturize the skin at the surface rather than providing deep, long-lasting hydration.
Dermal fillers such as Restylane Vital and Juvederm Hydrate can be used to great effect as part of a long-term approach to skin hydration treatment. They work by increasing the levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin, leaving it hydrated and restoring a healthy, younger looking glow.

The benefits of Hydration treatments

Non-permanent dermal fillers provide a safe method of instantly refreshing and hydrating your skin. The results that can be achieved using dermal fillers are stunning and natural looking. By using fillers for hydration treatments, we are able to effectively replenish the depleted levels of hyaluronic acid in your skin to restore a healthy glow.

Types of Dermal Filler treatments

At Bellissima, we use a range of hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane Vital and Juvederm Hydrate. These are non-permanent fillers and their effects typically last for six to 12 months. 
The hyaluronic acid used in these dermal fillers is produced biosynthetically by bacterial fermentation. (Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is found throughout your body. It gives volume to the skin, lubricates the joints and gives the eyes their shape).
