CaHA Fillers - Modern combination of fillers and collagen stimulators in injection cosmetology
Choosing a CaHA filler can be advantageous for several reasons:
Long-lasting results: Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers typically provide longer-lasting results compared to some other types of fillers. The effects can last up to a year or even longer in some cases.
Stimulates collagen production: CaHA stimulates the body's natural collagen production, leading to gradual improvements in skin texture and firmness over time. This can result in more natural-looking and longer-lasting results compared to fillers that simply add volume.
Versatility: CaHA fillers can be used to address a variety of concerns, including deep lines and wrinkles, volume loss in the cheeks, and facial contouring.
Biocompatibility: CaHA is a biocompatible material, meaning it is well-tolerated by the body and has a low risk of causing allergic reactions or other adverse effects.
Gradual degradation: Over time, the CaHA particles in the filler are gradually broken down by the body and metabolized, leading to a natural-looking decline in the effects of the filler.
The main differences between Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) fillers and traditional Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers lie in their composition, longevity, and mechanism of action:
Composition: CaHA fillers are made of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Calcium hydroxylapatite is a naturally occurring substance found in bones and teeth. HA fillers, on the other hand, are composed of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps retain moisture and volume in the skin.
Longevity: CaHA fillers typically provide longer-lasting results compared to traditional HA fillers. The effects of CaHA fillers can last up to a year or more, whereas HA fillers usually last around 6 to 18 months, depending on the specific product and treatment area.
Mechanism of action: CaHA fillers work by providing immediate volume to the treated area while also stimulating the body's natural collagen production. This collagen stimulation helps improve skin texture and firmness over time. HA fillers primarily work by attracting and retaining water molecules, thereby adding volume to the treated area. They do not stimulate collagen production to the same extent as CaHA fillers.
Indications: CaHA fillers are often used for deeper wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and to restore volume in areas like the cheeks. HA fillers are versatile and can be used for a wide range of purposes, including lip augmentation, smoothing fine lines, and adding volume to various facial areas.
Both types of fillers have their own advantages and are suitable for different individuals and treatment goals. The choice between CaHA and HA fillers depends on factors such as the specific concerns being addressed, desired duration of results, and individual preferences. It's essential to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the most suitable filler for your needs.
HYAMAX® CaHA Lido is a specific type of dermal filler that combines Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) with Lidocaine, a local anesthetic. CaHA is a biocompatible substance used in cosmetic procedures to fill deep lines and wrinkles and restore volume to certain areas of the face. Lidocaine is added to the filler to help minimize discomfort during the injection process.
The inclusion of Lidocaine in HYAMAX® CaHA Lido provides several potential benefits for patients undergoing cosmetic procedures:
- Reduced discomfort: Lidocaine helps numb the treatment area, making the injection process more comfortable for the patient.
- Minimized pain: Lidocaine acts quickly to block nerve signals in the skin, reducing the sensation of pain during the procedure.
- Enhanced patient experience: By reducing discomfort and pain, HYAMAX® CaHA Lido may contribute to a more positive overall experience for patients undergoing cosmetic treatments.
Overall, HYAMAX® CaHA Lido offers the benefits of both Calcium Hydroxylapatite fillers and Lidocaine anesthesia, providing patients with a potentially more comfortable and satisfying treatment experience. As with any cosmetic procedure, it's essential to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if HYAMAX® CaHA Lido is the right option for your specific needs and goals.
