The medical strobing technique is a revolutionary approach in aesthetic-oriented medicine inspired by strobing makeup, well known in the beauty world. The objective is to create light on certain specific areas of the face and to soften shadow areas in order to obtain a natural and harmonious result. Unlike classic contouring techniques, which rely on shaded contrasts to sculpt the face, medical strobing is based on the idea of enhancing the skin and volumes by emphasizing light areas, thus creating a rejuvenating effect and immediate radiance.
This technique is becoming increasingly popular.
Thanks to the use of hyaluronic acid, Skinboosters and PRX-T33 peel, this technique makes it possible to obtain a natural, luminous and rejuvenating result, without radical transformation.
If you wish to obtain a radiant, balanced and luminous face, the medical strobing technique could be the ideal solution for you. Consult a doctor in Geneva for a personalized treatment that will enhance your natural beauty while respecting the harmony of your features.
Medical strobing is a technique of aesthetic-oriented medicine that consists of using injectable products, such as hyaluronic acid, Skinboosters and the PRX-T33 peel to redefine the volumes of the face by creating light zones. The idea is to illuminate certain parts of the face that naturally catch the light (such as the top of the cheekbones, the brow bone or the bridge of the nose) and to soften shadow areas.
This subtle play between light and shadow gives the face a naturally lifted and radiant appearance, highlighting its strong points. The result is natural and harmonious.
Strobing, in makeup, consists of applying highlighters to the areas of the face that naturally catch the light to create a natural glow in these areas. In aesthetic-oriented medicine, this principle is taken up again but in a much more lasting and natural way.
The areas of the face that reflect light are treated to obtain a glow effect and enhance the contours.
Medical strobing is distinguished by its subtle approach : the aim is to create harmonious volumes and to accentuate the naturally illuminated areas.
Medical strobing is an ideal technique for patients looking for a subtle and natural improvement of their face. Unlike other methods that can sometimes give a frozen appearance or an excessive result, medical strobing reveals the natural beauty of the face simply by working on volumes and light.
Several reasons explain why this technique is increasingly appealing to patients.
• A natural luminous effect : medical strobing brings light to the face without using makeup. The areas that naturally reflect light, such as the top of the cheekbones, the forehead or the bridge of the nose, are highlighted, giving the face a fresher, more rested and visibly rejuvenated appearance. This work on light provides a natural radiance, without an artificial effect.
• A subtle result obtained through non-invasive techniques : medical strobing is based on injections of hyaluronic acid, a safe and biocompatible product. It is a non-invasive technique that does not drastically change the face, but brings a subtle and harmonious improvement of the features. It is a perfect option for people who want to rejuvenate their face while keeping a natural appearance.
• Correction of volumes and asymmetries : with age, certain facial volumes decrease or sag, leading to the appearance of undesirable shadows. Medical strobing helps to rebalance these volumes by injecting small amounts of hyaluronic acid into targeted areas. This correction restores volumes, improves asymmetries and creates a subtle lifting effect, while respecting the natural balance of the face.
• Lifting effect and facial rejuvenation : by softening shadow areas and accentuating light areas, medical strobing immediately lifts the face.
• Prevention of aging : medical strobing can be used for preventive purposes to delay the appearance of signs of aging.
By restoring volumes early and improving skin hydration, this technique helps maintain a luminous and harmonious face.
The medical strobing treatment targets the areas of the face that naturally catch the light, those that contribute to the youthful and luminous appearance of the face. The objective is to recreate the natural zones of luminosity that are normally highlighted by makeup, but in a more lasting way.
• The cheekbones : the cheekbones are one of the first areas to be treated in medical strobing. Hyaluronic acid injections are carried out to slightly plump or lift this area, thus creating a natural light zone that illuminates the face. When the cheekbones are well defined, they create an immediate lifting effect and rejuvenate the face.
• The forehead : the upper forehead is a key area for capturing light. Hyaluronic acid injections make it more convex and even out the skin. This correction gives a luminous and smooth effect, essential for a young and dynamic face.
• The bridge of the nose : the bridge of the nose, particularly the upper part, is a focal point of light. A light contouring with hyaluronic acid injections on the bridge of the nose can accentuate light reflection and give the impression of a slimmer nose.
• The chin : the chin is often a neglected area in aesthetic treatments, but it plays a crucial role in the balance of the face. By subtly improving chin volume, medical strobing helps to harmonize the lower face and create a luminous balance.
• The temples and the eyebrows : the temples and eyebrows are also important areas for the play of light on the face. Injections of Skinboosters or hyaluronic acid can be performed to slightly fill these areas and give an open and luminous look.
• Cupid’s bow (lips) : hyaluronic acid injections are performed to accentuate the natural curvature of the lips and give them a subtle glow.
The medical strobing session takes place in a medical practice.
An initial consultation precedes the injections. During the first consultation, Dr. Romano will analyze your face and determine the areas to be treated and the technique to be used. The doctor will take into account the natural structure of your face, as well as your aesthetic goals.
Small quantities of hyaluronic acid or Skinboosters are injected into strategic points of the face, which will be adapted to the patient’s anatomy. The treatment is quick and not very painful, with results visible immediately.
The hyaluronic acid is a component naturally present in the skin, which has the ability to retain water and provide volume. In aesthetic-oriented medicine, it is used to fill shadow areas, restore lost volumes and create areas of light. This product is perfectly suited to the medical strobing technique, because it makes it possible to define the face and hydrate the skin.
The hyaluronic acid provides results that are visible immediately after the injection. These optimize over the following three weeks, while remaining natural and respecting the proportions as well as the balance of the face.
The Skinboosters are injections of hyaluronic acid whose particles are very small. This technique aims to improve the quality and hydration of the skin, without adding extra volume. Used in the medical strobing technique, the Skinboosters give a natural radiance to the skin, hydrate it and smooth fine lines.
The Skinboosters provide long-lasting hydration, essential for maintaining smooth and luminous skin. They improve the quality of the skin, which becomes softer, more even and more radiant.
The PRX-T33 peeling is an innovative solution in aesthetic-oriented medicine, particularly suited to medical strobing. Combining the benefits of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and hydrogen peroxide, this peeling makes it possible to stimulate cellular regeneration without desquamation. It acts in depth to improve the quality of the skin, reduce imperfections and revive the radiance of the complexion. By targeting specific areas of the face, such as the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose and Cupid’s bow, PRX-T33 creates a natural and subtle light, giving an immediate “glowy” effect.
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.
The strobing by injections has many advantages, both aesthetic and functional :
• Natural and long-lasting result : unlike makeup, the effects of strobing by injections of hyaluronic acid last for a year and give a radiant complexion on a daily basis.
• Hydration and volume : hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water in the tissues, which hydrates and plumps the skin naturally, thus reducing signs of fatigue or aging.
• Improvement of skin quality : hyaluronic acid smooths the surface of the skin, softening fine lines and imperfections for an overall improved complexion.
• Non-invasive procedure : unlike surgery or other heavy procedures, injections of hyaluronic acid are minimally invasive, after-effects are mild and the resumption of daily activities takes place immediately after the session.
• Personalization : the injections can be adapted according to the needs of each patient, depending on their anatomy and the desired result.
After the session, the results will be visible immediately, with a luminous and natural effect that becomes optimal three weeks later.
The effects of medical strobing by injections of hyaluronic acid are long-lasting, but not permanent. Depending on the patient’s metabolism, anatomy and the treated areas, the results can last between 9 and 12 months. Maintenance sessions are recommended to preserve the results.
The cost of a Medical Strobing treatment varies according to the techniques used during the session. These are chosen according to the condition of the skin and the aesthetic objectives of each patient.
Injections of hyaluronic acid constitute the basis of the treatment. Their price starts from 600 CHF per syringe. The overall cost will depend on the number of syringes used.
The injection of Skinbooster is indicated to hydrate the skin and improve its quality. Its cost is 400 CHF per syringe, two syringes during the same session are injected.
In some cases, the PRX-T33 peeling can also be part of the protocol. It stimulates cell renewal without causing social downtime. This treatment is offered at 200 CHF per session.
The overall price of the treatment is set on the basis of the analysis of the skin, the patient’s expectations and the proposed strategy. Each plan is tailor-made, and all treatments are carried out with quality products, in compliance with current standards.
To obtain a naturally radiant complexion without makeup, it is essential to follow a targeted skincare routine. Choose gentle cleansers to eliminate impurities, vitamin C serums to revive radiance, and moisturizing creams rich in hyaluronic acid to maintain hydration. Regular exfoliation helps refine the skin texture and stimulate cellular renewal. Finally, daily sun protection preserves the skin from external aggressions and prevents a dull complexion.
Treatments such as Skinboosters (injections of lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid) provide deep hydration and reveal the face’s natural light. Microneedling stimulates collagen production, improves radiance and skin quality. Gentle peelings even out the complexion and illuminate key areas of the face. Finally, Hydrafacial deeply cleanses and infuses moisturizing serums for an immediate glow.
Injections of hyaluronic acid make it possible to restore volumes and reshape key areas such as the cheekbones, the brow arch and the chin. This technique enhances the areas naturally exposed to light, creating a subtle and harmonious effect of relief and luminosity, while respecting the natural morphology of the face.
For a natural rejuvenation, treatments such as mesolift (injections of vitamins and antioxidants), microneedling and gentle peelings are effective. They stimulate cellular regeneration, improve hydration and revive radiance. LED treatments also promote collagen production and provide an immediate healthy-glow effect.
Injections of hyaluronic acid make it possible to fill hollow areas such as dark circles, nasolabial folds and temples, reducing the shadows of the face. Light peelings and fractional laser help to even out the complexion and reduce spots, bringing more light. Finally, treatments such as Skinbooster or moisturizing mesotherapy deeply hydrate, restoring radiance and softness to the entire face.
