Everyone loves beauty. Everyone wants to have a beautiful face. However, everyone's appearance is innate and it is impossible to always be as one wishes.

If you want to achieve the best beauty effect, you need to understand them well. Here we will introduce the differences between wrinkle-removing injections and hyaluronic acid.

The function of wrinkle-removing injections is obviously to remove wrinkles , while the uses of hyaluronic acid are to fill the temples, augment the nose, plump the cheeks, remove nasolabial folds, plump the lips, fill the tear troughs, and plump the earlobes, while also having the function of removing wrinkles. What many people don’t know is that hyaluronic acid is also a material for wrinkle-removing injections. If you want to know which is better, wrinkle-removing injections or hyaluronic acid, we first need to clearly understand the difference between wrinkle-removing injections and hyaluronic acid, and then choose a micro-plastic surgery that suits you based on your skin beauty needs.

Which is better, wrinkle-removing injection or hyaluronic acid: From the perspective of applicable symptoms, the applicable symptoms of wrinkle -removing injection (botulinum toxin) can remove frown lines and improve facial muscle asymmetry. The reason why (botulinum toxin) has such an effect is that the main method of botulinum toxin is to block the impulses of muscles and nerves, thereby improving dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions. Symptoms of hyaluronic acid application: Hyaluronic acid filling is suitable for filling temples, nose, cheeks, nasolabial folds, lips, tear troughs, and earlobes. The reason why it can improve wrinkles and depressions in these areas is because the main mode of action of hyaluronic acid is filling, which can improve static wrinkles (that is, wrinkles that still exist even when you don't make facial expressions).

In summary , based on the applicable symptoms, if you need to improve dynamic wrinkles (such as frown lines and forehead wrinkles that appear when making facial expressions), you can choose wrinkle-removing injections. If you want to improve facial asymmetry, you can also use wrinkle-removing injections. Hyaluronic acid can also be used to remove wrinkles, but it is only suitable for static lines. In addition, friends who need to fill the nose, chin, cheeks, and lips can also choose hyaluronic acid of different molecular sizes.

Which is better, wrinkle removal injection or hyaluronic acid: From the perspective of risk

Risks of wrinkle-removing injections: Since (botulinum toxin) wrinkle-removing injections are injection treatments, it is inevitable that capillaries will be accidentally injured during the operation, which will cause some bruises, which can be relieved by ice compresses. In addition, some patients may experience swelling, mild redness and other discomfort after the operation, which will generally disappear within 24-48 hours. Follow the doctor's instructions carefully before and after the injection and cooperate with the doctor to avoid infection. If irregular (botulinum toxin) wrinkle-removing injection materials or expired (botulinum toxin) wrinkle-removing injection materials are used for injection, the patient's skin will become red, itchy and swollen all over the body. In addition, improper injection techniques may cause the eyebrows and eyes to become crooked after the wrinkle-removing injection.

Risks of hyaluronic acid: Usually hyaluronic acid injection has no side effects or only mild side effects. Possible discomfort or complications during or after the injection, such as bruising and swelling, are caused by impurities in the cross-linking agent or the hyaluronic acid raw materials. This problem is not serious and can usually be improved by ice compress or it can recover naturally. However, some people develop vascular embolism after hyaluronic acid wrinkle removal or hyaluronic acid body shaping, which is caused by technical errors of the operator. Therefore, we generally choose large hospitals and regular hyaluronic acid products and hyaluronic acid cross-linkers.
