Biological lifting injection is an injectable treatment method aimed at rejuvenating the skin, increasing its firmness, and improving its overall appearance using biologically compatible components. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tuğba Falay Gür explains in detail how the biological lifting injection is performed, its benefits, and the treatment process, helping patients achieve younger, firmer, and more aesthetic skin.
What is Biological Lifting Injection?
Biological lifting injection is a treatment method that involves injecting biological components into the skin to support the skin’s natural renewal processes and increase skin elasticity. This treatment may include various biologically supportive substances such as hyaluronic acid, growth factors, peptides, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), and exosomes. Biological lifting provides a way to achieve younger and firmer skin without requiring surgical intervention.
Causes and Goals
The primary goal of biological lifting injection treatment is to support the skin’s natural structure and achieve a more youthful, firm, and aesthetic appearance. The main objectives of the treatment are:
- Skin Tightening: Increase skin elasticity to provide a firmer and more youthful look.
- Reduction of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Improvement of Skin Tone and Texture: Address pigmentation irregularities and enhance the smoothness of the skin texture.
- Support Skin Regeneration: Accelerate skin cell renewal and enhance the skin’s vitality.
- Defining Facial Features: Shape the facial contours to create a more defined and aesthetic face structure.
Principle of Biological Lifting Injection Treatment
Biological lifting injection works by injecting biological components into the deeper layers of the skin. These components stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, helping to make the skin firmer and more elastic. Additionally, by supporting cell renewal, the treatment contributes to a younger and healthier skin appearance. Biological lifting injections are a minimally invasive method that does not require surgery.
Treatment Process
Biological lifting injection treatment generally includes the following steps:
- Evaluation:
The specialist doctor assesses the patient’s skin type, signs of aging, and treatment needs. - Preparation:
The treatment area is cleaned and sterilized. Local anesthesia may be applied if necessary. - Injection:
The biological lifting solution is carefully injected into the targeted areas of the skin using fine needles. A slight stinging sensation may occur during the process. - Cooling and Relaxation:
Cooling methods may be used during and after the treatment to relax the skin. - Post-Treatment Care:
Special aftercare recommendations are given to support healing of the treated area. This may include using moisturizers and sun protection.
