Hyaluronic acid: contraindications and consequences

Even 100 years ago, stories about the fact that with the help of injections you can regain your youth or make your appearance more attractive, were from the category of fiction. Now there are real institutions dealing with issues of beauty and youth. The desire to always be in shape, to remain young became not just an ordinary, but a modern man's need. The whole industry deals with the issues of cosmetology, there is a real market of various services from simply massage to the most complicated surgical operations. This is cellulite and Thai massages, cavitation, peeling, botox, lymph drainage and one of the most advertised means - hyaluronic acid. Contraindications associated with the implementation of all procedures, in many cases, are voiced by specialists not so readily, as positive results. To understand yourself with what will help and what does not, it's difficult.

So, mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid is one of the most widely used methods of face correction. In simple terms, the technique is to inject certain drugs in problem areas. It is clear that the main component of these cosmetic products is hyaluronic acid.

By its properties, this acid is unique. It helps water to stay in the body, is one of the most important components of the joint fluid. It is thanks to hyaluronic acid, the skin remains elastic, and the joints - mobile. But the fact is that in sufficient quantities our body produces hyaluronic acid up to 25 years, after, due to physiological characteristics, this component becomes insufficient.

Experts advise to make up for the deficiency, injections are most often offered. It seems that this approach is obvious, but many forget that any injection is a wound. Hyaluron is part of our body. There is no rejection and problems caused by hyaluronic acid. Contraindications are associated with the injection itself. Basically it is hematomas, erythema, a painful condition, allergic reactions and exacerbation of herpes. If the cosmetologist is chosen correctly, he will necessarily warn the client about all possible side effects, but, unfortunately, this does not always happen.

• Hematoma is a bruise at the injection site. It arises from the accumulation of blood as a result of rupture of the vessels and passes within 2-4 days after the procedure.
• The abnormal reddening of the skin from pink to purple, caused by the expansion of capillaries, is called erythema, sometimes in the form of a rash. Usually, various allergic reactions and inflammation in the area of injection are manifested. Again, the same principle works again when hyaluronic acid itself is safe, contraindications and complications are associated with a possible reaction to antiseptic agents and other components that make up the drug.
• If allergic reactions - a normal phenomenon for a person, it is worthwhile to think carefully about whether or not to carry out miracle mesotherapy. If the hematoma passes within a few days, then the fight against other allergic reactions can take a lot longer.
• In pursuit of youth and the ideal state of the face, one must not forget about such a dangerous disease as herpes. Any injection can cause it to exacerbate or, worse, spread herpes all over the face. There are other methods and means where the main component is hyaluronic acid. Contraindications there may be different, not related to the presence of herpes. Although in any case, it's worth spending time on what to cure this disease.

What else you should not forget, is pregnancy, lactation and menstruation. At this time in the body there are a variety of hormonal changes, so that it is impossible to foresee a reaction to the procedure.

All the contraindications described above can be easily taken into account if mesotherapy is performed by specialists who will question the client in detail, will conduct a preliminary test for allergic reactions, and provide the necessary sterility. Then hyaluronic acid in the lips, nasolabial folds, to correct the oval face will give stunning results.
