Medical strobing is a revolutionary approach in aesthetic medicine inspired by strobing makeup, well known in the beauty world. The goal is to highlight specific areas of the face while softening shadowed areas to achieve a natural, luminous, and balanced result. Unlike traditional contouring techniques, which sculpt the face by enhancing shadows, this method is based on enhancing the skin and facial volume by accentuating the light-catching zones, thus creating an immediate rejuvenating and radiant effect. This technique is increasingly popular.
Strobing is a well-known makeup technique used to highlight areas of the face that naturally catch the light, creating a radiant and glowing skin effect. Today, this trend is no longer limited to cosmetic products. It is now possible to achieve this luminous effect in a more durable way through hyaluronic acid injections. Medical strobing is an innovative and non-invasive technique that enhances the face by playing with areas of light and shadow.
Through the use of hyaluronic acid, Skinboosters, and PRX-T33 peel, this technique offers a natural, radiant, and rejuvenating result, without radical transformation. If you are looking for a radiant, balanced, and luminous face, medical strobing may be the ideal solution for you. Consult a doctor in Geneva for a personalized treatment that enhances your natural beauty while respecting your facial harmony.
Medical strobing is an aesthetic medicine technique that involves using injectable products, such as hyaluronic acid, Skinboosters, and the PRX-T33 peel, to redefine facial volumes by creating light zones. The idea is to illuminate specific areas of the face that naturally catch the light (such as the top of the cheekbones, the brow bone, or the bridge of the nose), while softening shadows.br>
This subtle interplay between light and shadow gives the face a naturally lifted and radiant appearance by highlighting its strong points. The result is natural and harmonious.
Strobing in makeup consists of applying highlighters to the naturally light-reflecting areas of the face to create a glow. In aesthetic medicine, this principle is applied in a more durable and natural way.
The facial zones that reflect light are treated to achieve a glow effect and enhance facial contours.
Medical strobing stands out for its subtle approach : the goal is to create harmonious volumes and enhance naturally illuminated zones.
Medical strobing is the ideal technique for patients seeking a subtle and natural enhancement of their face.
Unlike other methods that can sometimes produce a frozen or overdone appearance, medical strobing reveals the natural beauty of the face by simply working on volume and light.
Several reasons explain why this technique is attracting more and more patients.
• A natural luminous effect : medical strobing creates a glowing effect on the face without the need for makeup. Key areas of the face, such as the cheekbones, forehead, and bridge of the nose, are highlighted, giving a more youthful and radiant appearance. This play of light makes the face look refreshed and luminous, while remaining natural.
• A subtle and non-invasive result : medical strobing is performed using hyaluronic acid injections, a safe and biocompatible product. It is a non-invasive technique that does not drastically change the face but provides a subtle and harmonious enhancement of the features. It is a perfect option for those seeking to rejuvenate their face while maintaining a natural appearance.
• Volume correction and asymmetry balancing : with age, certain facial volumes can diminish or sag, creating unwanted shadows. Medical strobing corrects these volumes by reinjecting small amounts of hyaluronic acid into strategic areas. This restores volume, creates a lifting effect, and maintains the natural balance of the face.
• Lifting effect and rejuvenation : by softening shadowed areas and accentuating light zones, medical strobing provides an immediate lifting effect.
• Prevention of aging : medical strobing can be used preventively to delay the signs of aging, as it restores lost volume and hydrates the skin.
Le traitement médical strobing cible les zones du visage qui captent naturellement la lumière. Ce sont souvent ces zones qui rendent le visage jeune et éclatant. L’objectif est de recréer les zones naturelles de “highlighting” qui sont normalement mises en avant par le maquillage, mais de manière plus durable.
• Cheekbones : the cheekbones are one of the primary areas treated in medical strobing. Hyaluronic acid injections are performed to slightly plump or lift this area, creating a natural light zone that brightens the face. When the cheekbones are well defined, they produce an instant lifting effect and rejuvenate the face.
• Forehead : the upper forehead is a key area for light reflection. Hyaluronic acid injections smooth the skin and create a subtle convexity. This gives a luminous, even surface that contributes to a youthful and dynamic look.
• Bridge of the nose : the upper portion of the nasal bridge is a focal point for light. A subtle contouring effect using hyaluronic acid injections enhances light reflection and refines the nose.
• Chin : the chin is often overlooked in aesthetic treatments, but it plays a crucial role in facial balance. By subtly enhancing the chin’s volume, medical strobing harmonizes the lower face and creates a luminous balance.
• Temples and eyebrows : the temples and eyebrows are also important areas in light dynamics. Injections of Skinboosters or hyaluronic acid can be used to slightly fill these zones, resulting in a brighter and more open gaze.
• Cupid’s bow (lips) : hyaluronic acid injections can accentuate the natural curvature of the lips and give them a subtle glow.
A medical strobing session is performed in a medical practice.
An initial consultation precedes the injections. During the first consultation, Doctor Romano will analyze your face and determine the areas to be treated and the technique to be used. She will consider the natural structure of your face as well as your aesthetic goals.
Small amounts of hyaluronic acid or Skinboosters are injected into strategic facial points adapted to the patient's anatomy.
The treatment is quick and minimally painful, with immediate visible results.
L’hyaluronic acid is a component naturally present in the skin, which has the ability to retain water and add volume. In aesthetic medicine, it is used to fill in shadows, restore lost volume and create areas of light. It is a product perfectly suited to the medical strobing technique, as it allows the face to be sculpted while hydrating the skin in depth.
L’acide hyaluronique offre des résultats visibles immédiatement après l’injection, ces résultats sont optimaux trois semaines après l’injection, sont naturels et respectent les proportions et l’équilibre du visage.
Skinboosters are micro-injections of hyaluronic acid with very fine particles designed to improve skin quality and hydration without adding volume.
Used in the medical strobing technique, Skinboosters bring a natural glow to the skin, hydrate it, and smooth fine lines.
Skinboosters provide long-lasting hydration, essential for maintaining smooth and luminous skin. They improve skin texture, making it softer, more even, and more radiant.
PRX-T33 peel est une solution innovante en médecine esthétique, particulièrement adapté au médical strobing. Combinant les bienfaits de l’acide trichloracétique (TCA) et du peroxyde d’hydrogène, ce peeling permet de stimuler la régénération cellulaire sans desquamation . Il agit en profondeur pour améliorer la texture de la peau, réduire les imperfections et raviver l’éclat du teint. En ciblant des zones spécifiques du visage, comme les pommettes, l’arête du nez et l’arc de Cupidon, le PRX-T33 crée une lumière naturelle et subtile, donnant un effet “glowy” immédiat.
After a Medical Strobing session, a few simple precautions should be followed to optimize results and avoid complications.
• Avoid direct sun exposure for a few days and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the skin.
• Avoid intense physical activity, saunas, or steam rooms for 48 hours following the injections, as these may increase potential swelling.
• Do not massage or apply strong pressure to the treated areas to avoid displacing the product.
Side effects are minimal : slight swelling, redness, or bruising may appear but usually subside within a few days.
Strobing via injections offers numerous aesthetic and functional benefits :
• Natural and long-lasting result : unlike makeup, the effects of strobing with hyaluronic acid injections last up to one year and give the skin a daily radiant glow.
• Hydration and volume : hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water in the tissues, hydrating and naturally plumping the skin, thus reducing signs of fatigue or aging.
• Improved skin quality : hyaluronic acid smooths the skin surface, reducing fine lines and imperfections for an overall enhanced complexion.
• Non-invasive procedure : unlike surgery or other intensive procedures, hyaluronic acid injections are minimally invasive, with minimal downtime and immediate return to daily activities.
• Personalization : injections can be tailored to each patient’s individual needs, depending on their anatomy and the desired result.
After the session, results are immediately visible, with a luminous and natural effect that becomes optimal after three weeks.
The effects of Medical Strobing with hyaluronic acid injections are long-lasting but not permanent.
Depending on the patient’s metabolism, anatomy, and treated areas, the results may last between 9 and 12 months.
Maintenance sessions are recommended to extend the glowy and strobing effect.
The cost of a Medical Strobing treatment varies depending on the techniques used during the session. These are chosen based on the condition of the skin and each patient’s aesthetic goals. Hyaluronic acid injections form the foundation of the treatment. Their price starts at 600 CHF per syringe. The overall cost will depend on the number of syringes used. Skinbooster injections are indicated to hydrate the skin and improve its quality. The cost is 400 CHF per syringe, and two syringes are injected during the same session. In some cases, the PRX-T33 peel may also be included in the protocol. It stimulates cell renewal without causing social downtime. This treatment is offered at 200 CHF per session. The overall treatment price is determined based on the skin analysis, the patient’s expectations, and the proposed strategy. Each plan is personalized, and all procedures are carried out using quality products, in compliance with current standards.
Pour obtenir un teint naturellement lumineux sans maquillage, il est essentiel de suivre une routine de soins ciblée. Optez pour des nettoyants doux pour éliminer les impuretés, des sérums à la vitamine C pour raviver l’éclat, et des crèmes hydratantes riches en acide hyaluronique pour maintenir l’hydratation. Une exfoliation régulière permet d’affiner le grain de peau et de stimuler le renouvellement cellulaire. Enfin, une protection solaire quotidienne préserve la peau des agressions extérieures et évite le teint terne.
Des traitements comme les Skinboosters (injections d’acide hyaluronique peu réticulé) apportent une hydratation profonde et révèlent la lumière naturelle du visage. Le microneedling stimule la production de collagène, améliorant l’éclat et la texture de la peau. Les peelings doux unifient le teint et illuminent les zones clés du visage. Enfin, l’Hydrafacial nettoie en profondeur et infuse des sérums hydratants pour un éclat immédiat.
Les injections d’acide hyaluronique permettent de restaurer les volumes et de remodeler des zones clés comme les pommettes, l’arcade sourcilière et le menton. Cette technique met en valeur les zones naturellement exposées à la lumière, créant un effet de relief et de luminosité subtil et harmonieux, tout en respectant la morphologie naturelle du visage.
Pour un rajeunissement naturel, les traitements comme le mésolift (injections de vitamines et d’antioxydants), le microneedling et les peelings doux sont efficaces. Ils stimulent la régénération cellulaire, améliorent l’hydratation et ravivent l’éclat. Les soins LED favorisent également la production de collagène et apportent un effet bonne mine immédiat.
Les injections d’acide hyaluronique permettent de combler les zones creuses comme les cernes, les sillons nasogéniens et les tempes, atténuant les ombres du visage. Les peelings légers et le laser fractionné aident à uniformiser le teint et à diminuer les taches, apportant plus de lumière. Enfin, les soins comme le Skinbooster ou la mésothérapie hydratent en profondeur, redonnant éclat et douceur à l’ensemble du visage.
