Manufactured through genetic engineering from a substance that is universal to all animals.
The substance contains natural ingredients present in the body and does not require allergy testing. It has no side effects, except for effects related to the injection itself, such as redness and swelling – effect that disappear within a day or two at the most.
Disadvantages:
The substance is absorbed and disappears within 6-12 months, depending on the location of the injection.
The substance is expensive due to production costs and it is quoted by the cost of the syringe ( av’ of 1-2 syringes per treatment ).
The great advantage:
1.No side effects.
2.The results are immediate and a significant change is evident after the injection.
10-20% of the substance is absorbed within the first two days after the injection.
The remainder of the substance is slowly absorbed – depending on many factors: skin type, genetics, client gender, injection technique and more.
Most of the material is usually absorbed after one year, and the process is repeated .
A checkup is usually conducted two weeks after the first injection together with corrections in the event asymmetrical absorption.
The entire treatment, therefore, is comprised of two appointments, two weeks apart.
