Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the human body, vital for maintaining skin hydration and volume. However, as we age, the body produces less hyaluronic acid, leading to dryness, wrinkles, and skin laxity. Dr. Lyor Hanan offers hyaluronic acid injections in Dubai to restore facial contours, helping patients achieve a rejuvenated, defined appearance.

Skin laxity refers to the sagging of skin tissues, primarily caused by aging. It manifests as wrinkles, fine lines, and a loss of skin elasticity and firmness. Skin laxity results from both intrinsic factors (natural aging) and extrinsic factors (environmental exposure like UV rays, pollution, smoking, etc.).
Facial contouring with hyaluronic acid is a non-surgical procedure designed to restore structure and a youthful look by adding volume and plumping specific facial areas. Indications for hyaluronic acid contouring include:
Hyaluronic acid can fill areas around the jowls and mouth lines, creating softer, younger-looking contours.
Fillers add volume to the chin and jawline, enhancing symmetry and creating a more harmonious facial shape.
Adding volume to hollow or sagging cheeks restores youthful contours.
Fillers in the temples provide a subtle lifting effect for an overall refreshed look.
Dr. Lyor Hanan performs facial contouring injections with precision and care:
The skin is cleansed with an antiseptic solution, and a local anesthetic is applied to minimize discomfort.
Hyaluronic acid is injected into targeted areas, followed by gentle massaging to ensure an even distribution.
A cold compress is applied to reduce swelling and minimize bruising.
The procedure is quick, lasting about 30 minutes, allowing patients to resume normal activities shortly after.
Results from hyaluronic acid injections are visible immediately, with full effects developing within 2 to 3 weeks as collagen production increases and any minor swelling subsides. Depending on age, lifestyle, and skin type, results can last up to 6 months or more.
A follow-up appointment is usually required after 15 days, though Dr. Lyor Hanan recommends a touch-up session every 8-10 months to maintain optimal results.
While hyaluronic acid injections are safe for most patients, certain contraindications and precautions apply:
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and mild tenderness at the injection site. Serious side effects are rare but can include granulomas (small lumps under the skin) and, in extremely rare cases, skin necrosis, which can be reversed with quick treatment using hyaluronidase.
