Does the hyaluronic acid injection (water light needle) have any effect after just one session?
Generally, if an individual has relatively good skin quality, receiving one hyaluronic acid injection (mesotherapy) may result in some improvement. However, if the individual's skin condition is poor, a single session may not produce noticeable results. Hyaluronic acid injections are a cosmetic procedure that utilizes micro-needle technology to deliver hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and other nutrients directly into the dermis, aiming to deeply hydrate the skin, improve skin quality, enhance skin radiance, and promote metabolism. The typical reference price for hyaluronic acid injections ranges from 1500 to 3000 yuan per session, with visible improvements generally seen within 3 to 7 days. This procedure should be performed at a legitimate medical facility. Detailed explanations are as follows:
If an individual's skin is already relatively healthy, with good hydration, luster, and elasticity, then a single hyaluronic acid injection often brings about noticeable improvement. The nutrients from the injection can be rapidly absorbed by the skin, further replenishing the moisture and nourishment the skin needs, thereby achieving an even better skin condition.
If an individual's skin condition is poor, with dryness, roughness, or existing skin problems such as pigmentation spots and wrinkles, then a single hyaluronic acid injection may not produce significant results. This is because skin in poor condition often requires more time and nutrients for repair and improvement, and a single injection may not achieve visible results in a short period.
After receiving hyaluronic acid injections, it is recommended to keep the skin clean, avoid direct UV exposure, perform regular moisturizing and antioxidant skincare, and maintain good sleep patterns and dietary habits to sustain the effects of the injections and gradually improve overall skin condition.
