3 Restoring volume and body contouring with HYAcorp Surveys have shown that a large number of people would like to make small changes to their body. However this should happen naturally, without implants, autologous fat injections or surgical procedures. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of human skin. It binds moisture perfectly and at the same time stimulates the regeneration of collagen and elastin. This provides skin with new elasticity and creates a fresher look. Thus hyaluronic acid fillers like HYAcorp present superb opportunities for restoring tissue volume. Tissue development with HYAcorp the alternative to surgery The treatment is not a surgical procedure. It is carried out as an out-patient under local anaesthetic. The result is immediately visible. After treatment the patient can generally start work again straight away or devote themselves to leisure activities. 4/ b_HYAcorp_Pat-Faltprospekt_en.indd :25:02

4 How is HYAcorp applied? HYAcorp is injected with a very fine needle in tiny amounts almost without any pain and it gently fills up the tissue - success which you can see straight away! As the material is only injected with a needle there are only the tiniest pinpricks on the skin which are no longer visible in a very short time. Normally you can take up your usual daily routine again immediately after treatment. The effect lasts for several months but is dependent on skin type and external factors like smoking, sun and stress. In most cases follow-up treatment once a year is sufficient after the first treatment. 6/ b_HYAcorp_Pat-Faltprospekt_en.indd :25:04

5 Benefits of treatment with HYAcorp Only local anaesthetic is necessary which avoids the risks of a full anaesthetic. The minimally invasive procedure guarantees scar free treatment, a non-surgical procedure and thus short treatment and recovery time. No overnight clinic stay is necessary. It consists of hyaluronic acid, a natural component of the skin which plays an important part in health. It is not derived from animals, no risk of usual allergic reactions or transfer of illnesses. Undisputed effectiveness in cosmetic and medical application. Thus treatment can be started without a prior allergy test. Treatment is not permanent and as opposed to permanent (non-reversible procedures) offers the possibility of adapting the effect/ success change to the natural changes of your skin and body. 8/ b_HYAcorp_Pat-Faltprospekt_en.indd :25:06

6 Questions & answers on the use of HYAcorp How long does the treatment with HYAcorp last? The treatment with HYAcorp is long lasting but not permanent. Over time the hyaluronic acid is naturally broken down. After several months you can decide again whether you would like to continue treatment. Most patients refresh the treatment after 6 to 12 months to achieve long-term success. Do I have to reckon with periods of absence? No. HYAcorp is directly injected into the mid and deep layers of the dermis with a very fine needle in tiny amounts and fills up the tissue from inside. The pinpricks are no longer visible already after a very short time. You do not need to plan any time off your job or private time out after treatment. How well-tolerated is HYAcorp? HYAcorp consists of multiple crosslinked hyaluronic acids, which also appear in their original unlinked form in the human body. Treatment can be carried out safely, reliably and simply. HYAcorp is very well-tolerated and is broken down by the body. Is an allergy test necessary? No, hyaluronic acid is synthetically manufactured so that is does not contain any animal proteins which could trigger an allergic reaction. Is the injection very painful? Treatment with HYAcorp is generally felt to be low stress. However especially with pain thresholds there are great differences individually. For example the lip area which is somewhat more sensitive to pain can be prepared with a local anaesthetic. This switches off the feeling of pain to a large extent with the insertion of the needle. Are you left with scars where the pinpricks are? As HYAcorp is only injected with needles there are only the tiniest pinpricks in the skin which are almost no longer visible even after a short time. What are the risks of treatment with HYAcorp? In rare cases temporary side effects may occur: inflammatory reactions like skin redness or swelling, hardness and a palpable infiltrate at the injection site. In rare cases reversible discolouration may occur. Is an anaesthetic necessary? It is not necessary but possible without any problems. The treatment is uncomplicated and to a large extent virtually pain-free. If you wish an anaesthetic cream or local anaesthetic can be applied. Afterwards HYAcorp is injected with a very fine needle. Can you go to the tanning salon after HYAcorp treatment? Yes, no problem. For three days the tissue is easily irritated and also slightly swollen. You should avoid going for this short period. 10/ b_HYAcorp_Pat-Faltprospekt_en.indd :25:06
