Why Hyaluronic Fillers Should Only Be Administered by Doctors

What You Need to Know

Hyaluronic fillers are a proven method for reducing wrinkles and improving skin appearance. Although these treatments are minimally invasive, they require a high level of medical expertise. In this article, you will learn why hyaluronic fillers should only be administered by qualified doctors, what risks exist, and why the safe use of Hylase in case of complications is crucial.

 

1. Medical Training and Experience are Crucial

Doctors undergo extensive training, which includes both theoretical knowledge and practical experience with injection techniques and anatomical features. This training enables doctors to minimize the risk of complications and achieve the best aesthetic results.

In contrast, the requirements for alternative practitioners are significantly lower. Their training does not adequately focus on facial anatomy or potential complications with the use of filler materials. This can pose significant risks for patients.

In our practice, we place the highest importance on patient safety, which is guaranteed through solid knowledge and the use of modern medical technology.

 

2. Risks of Improper Use of Hyaluronic Fillers

The use of hyaluronic fillers can lead to serious complications if not administered by a medically qualified doctor. The main risks include:

Vascular blockages: If the filler is accidentally injected into a blood vessel, it can cause a blockage leading to tissue necrosis. Particularly affected are sensitive zones like the nasolabial fold, the lips, and the eye area, where many important blood vessels run.

Infections: Unsterile injection methods or poor hygiene can cause infections that can have severe consequences.

Overcorrection or asymmetry: Imprecise injections can lead to excessive filling or uneven results, impairing the aesthetic appearance.

These risks require both medical expertise as well as the ability to recognize potential complications early and act accordingly.

 

3. Hylase: The Key to Safe Complication Management

In the event of a vascular blockage, the use of Hylase – an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid – may be necessary to dissolve the blockage and prevent complications. The correct use of Hylase is, however, reserved for doctors with the necessary knowledge of anatomy and proper dosage.

In our practice, we focus on emergency competence and have the necessary equipment to ensure you receive the best possible care during every treatment. The combination of medical expertise, modern technologies like ultrasound and ECG, and extensive training in emergency management guarantees your safety.

 

Conclusion: Why You Should Insist on Treatment by Qualified Doctors

The use of hyaluronic fillers requires profound medical knowledge and precise injection technique. Qualified doctors are capable of performing the treatment safely and recognizing and treating complications early. In our practice, we place particular importance on patient safety and the harmony of aesthetics.
