When is the effect of hyaluronic acid noticeable?
The time between the administration and the effect of the hyaluronic acid is one of the most common questions we are asked by our patients.
The appearance of hyaluronic acid was a revolution in aesthetic medicine. Its administration is painless and as it is a natural product found in the human body, it has no side effects.

The miracle of hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally present in our body. Its presence gives volume and shine to the skin due to its moisturising effect.
With the passage of time, our body loses its production capacity, which leads to a loss of volume, luminosity and the appearance of flaccidity. This, which is particularly evident in the skin, can be remedied by the medical administration of hyaluronic acid, recovering its elasticity and smoothness.
Its use for lip volume augmentation, rhinomodelling, cheekbone augmentation, wrinkle elimination, attenuation of nasolabial folds, elimination of barcodes on the lips or crow’s feet, etc. has become more popular as the technique has been refined and made the results more natural and its price has fallen, making it accessible to everyone.
If you want to know more about this subject, in another of our articles we discuss the use of hyaluronic acid in aesthetic medicine at greater length.
When you notice the effect of hyaluronic acid
At what point do I notice the effects of hyaluronic acid treatment?
The real effects of hyaluronic acid treatment are visible 10 days after administration.
During the first few days, you will see changes in the treated area. However, these changes are temporary. The inflammation that occurs as a reaction can distort the results. After 10 days, the inflammation has gone down and the hyaluronic acid has settled, so the effects are definitive: smoother, more luminous skin, elimination of wrinkles, disappearance of flaccidity, etc…
How long do the effects last and when should I have a new treatment?
The duration of the administration of hyaluronic acid is between 6 and 24 months depending on the patient’s age, the technique of administration, the amount administered and the patient’s metabolism.
After this time, you yourself will notice that the effects of the hyaluronic acid are no longer evident. If you wish to maintain a sustained effect, without the effects of administration and absorption being visible, it is necessary to make regular visits to our specialists so that they can establish the appropriate regimen for your case.
It has been observed that the benefits of the administration of hyaluronic acid are cumulative: as the number of administrations increases, the effect becomes more evident and the duration between sessions becomes longer.
This seems to be due to the fact that the administration of vials stimulates the production of skin growth factors and decreases collagen reabsorption, which slows down the ageing process.
Positive habits to extend the effects
Lifestyle
When it comes to the health of our skin, lifestyle is the first factor in maintaining it. Avoiding stress, eating right, moderate exercise and excessive sun exposure are the best habits to maintain youthful skin.
Use sunscreens to avoid UVA and UVB rays, which accelerate skin ageing and the appearance of spots and melanomas.
Get enough sleep. This oxygenates the skin, which helps it to become firmer and more luminous and helps the dermis cells to regenerate.
Apply specific products for your skin. A facial study will indicate which products are best for your skin type.
After each session
When you attend a management session, the surgeon will make recommendations for the hours following your visit.
- Avoid touching the treated area, especially massaging and rubbing.
- Avoid strenuous exercise.
- Sleep in a position that avoids pressure on the area.
- Avoid sun exposure. Use sunscreen.
- Avoid smoking and alcohol intake.
