In general, a more noticeable improvement can be seen seven to ten days after receiving a hyaluronic acid injection treatment.
Hyaluronic acid injection, also known as the "water light needle," is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting nutrients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and amino acids into the dermis layer of the skin to achieve effects such as skin hydration, tightening, and brightening. After the treatment, the skin may experience temporary redness and swelling due to a certain degree of stimulation. This is a normal reaction and usually subsides on its own within 24 to 48 hours. The time required for the effects of the hyaluronic acid injection to become visible may vary from person to person.
To achieve the desired results, a course of treatment is usually recommended, meaning the injections are repeated at intervals customized by a professional physician according to the individual's skin condition. During this period, it is recommended to maintain healthy lifestyle habits, such as regular sleep patterns, a balanced diet, and proper sun protection and moisturizing, all of which help accelerate skin recovery and enhance the treatment results.
If no improvement is observed after a prolonged period or if other discomfort symptoms occur, it is advisable to promptly consult a professional physician for further evaluation and management.
