High-quality hyaluronic acids with varying densities are used depending on the area being treated. The products are chosen for their ability to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and deeply hydrate the skin, ensuring a natural and long-lasting result.
Le lifting à 8 points offre un visage visiblement rajeuni, des volumes restaurés et des contours mieux définis. Les traits sont raffermis, les rides estompées, et le teint retrouve son éclat. Le résultat reste subtil, respectant l’harmonie du visage, avec un effet naturel.
Les résultats sont visibles immédiatement après la séance, mais l’effet optimal s’observe après quelques jours, une fois l’acide hyaluronique bien intégré. Les résultats durent généralement entre 12 et 18 mois, selon le métabolisme et les produits utilisés.
