Neckline hyaluronic acid injection

The skin of the décolleté is relatively thin compared to other areas of the body. This thinness of the dermis means that hyaluronic acid loss, which occurs naturally with age, will be faster and earlier in this region of the bust.

Hyaluronic acid is known to capture water molecules, so its disappearance leads to dermal dehydration, giving the skin a withered appearance. Not only can a withered décolleté break the harmony of a bust or face, it also reflects a skin that functions less well.

As the dermis loses thickness, it loses curvature and becomes more transparent, revealing more clearly the sun spots that develop under the action of UV rays. While the most pronounced brown spots require photorejuvenation treatment, such as pigment lasers, hyaluronic acid injections can reduce the less intense ones, restoring the skin's radiance and sensuality.

Finally, when the loss of hyaluronic acid is more marked, the dermis is marked by real furrows where the epidermis above falls, as it were. This is the formation of static wrinkles, which deepen the décolleté and give it a strong ageing appearance.

Doctor Christelle Santini offers hyaluronic acid injections in the décolleté:

• on fragile, lackluster or dehydrated skin, to coat it with a trophic fluid hyaluronic acid. The result is brighter, better-functioning skin.
• on a withered décolleté to restore luscious, sensual skin, which then enhances the contours of the breasts;
• on a wrinkled décolleté, to fill in static wrinkles and harmoniously rejuvenate the upper bust.

She always ensures that rejuvenation of the décolleté is in harmony with the upper breasts and lower face. It is possible, for example, to rejuvenate the neck at the same time, using a medical facelift with Botox injections injections (Nefertiti neck lift).

A preliminary examination allows Dr. Santini to check the skin of your décolleté, to understand the mechanisms of its aging.

She listens to your needs and desires to find out whether hyaluronic acid injections will enable you to sublimate your décolleté to your expectations.

Dr Santini will be taking medical photos.

It is at this stage that she determines the type of hyaluronic acid to select: she chooses a very fluid hyaluronic acid to coat the dermis and moisturize it, and a slightly more viscous HA to fill in wrinkles and furrows.

Contraindications are rare, and include pregnant women, patients with certain autoimmune diseases and dermatitis.

It is advisable to stop any anti-coagulant treatment to avoid bruising or hematoma, if authorized by the prescribing physician.

There is no need to fast before the injections.

It is advisable to avoid over-exposing the décolleté to the sun on the day itself and the day before.

This session of hyaluronic acid injection to plump up the décolleté takes place at the practice of Dr Christelle Santini, rue de la Pompe (75116 Paris).

With his training as an aesthetic surgeon, Dr Santini applies the same rigor and methodology, for a natural, made-to-measure result.

There's no need for general anesthesia or hospitalization.

Local numbing is achieved in two ways, for a comfortable, virtually pain-free anti-aging treatment:

• a local anesthetic such as lidocaine is included in the hyaluronic acid syringes selected by Dr Christelle Santini;
• a contact anaesthetic ointment such as Emla can also be prescribed, to be applied one hour before the injection session.

The skin of the décolleté is injected with a fine needle to fill in static wrinkles, or with a foam cannula to cover and plump up a withered décolleté.

Dr. Santini's experience in aesthetic mammoplasty is a real added value when it comes to sublimating the contours of the décolleté and restoring its freshness and sensuality.

Dr. Santini never injects hyaluronic acid into the breast, as this procedure is not recommended to avoid creating a possible artifact with mammography screening for breast tumors.

The décolleté-freshening injection session lasts between 10 and 20 minutes, with a spectacular effect that immediately rejuvenates the lower neck and upper chest.

The patient immediately resumes her normal activities, without difficulty. She should not be surprised if she sees some redness (disappearing in a few hours), small bruises (disappearing in 4/5 days) or oedema (disappearing in 10/15 days).

The effect on the décolleté is immediate, but only really stabilizes between 10 and 15 days, with a dual action:

• the trophic role of hyaluronic acid magnifies the luminosity of the skin of the décolleté, and partially erases the darkening caused by photoaging;
• the plumping effect lifts the skin and smoothes out wrinkles, restoring the décolleté's curves, freshness and sensuality.

Dr Santini recommends an injection of hyaluronic acid in the décolleté every year, to keep the tissues fresh.

• No work stoppage required.
• Virtually colorless décolleté rejuvenation.
• Lifting effect without surgery or anesthesia.
• Natural rendering that restores freshness to the upper bust.
• Can be combined with a non-surgical neck lift.
