Hyaluronic acid injections
Treatment with fillers (hyaluronic acid-based fillers)
Restore volume, soften wrinkles and redefine facial contours while respecting your natural expression
At DUO, we use hyaluronic acid (HA) gels with lidocaine, recognized for their safety and natural appearance.
What is a dermal filler??
Hyaluronic acid–based fillers are injectable gels that restore volume, smooth folds, and redefine facial contours while maintaining the natural expression of the face. HA is a molecule naturally present in the skin, capable of binding water and contributing to skin hydration and suppleness. The gels are stabilized to last longer than natural HA.
