Treatment process
Consultation
During a consultation, you will meet the practitioner(s) and discuss your wishes and expectations. The natural aging process of bone structures, fat, muscle tissue, and skin will be evaluated. Based on this analysis and photographs, a personalized treatment plan will be created to ensure the best possible results. You will always receive honest and comprehensive advice throughout the process.
Function
The stronger the connection (through cross-linking between hyaluronic acid chains), the longer the effects of the treatment will be visible. A stronger connection results in a thicker, more viscous hyaluronic acid. A thick and viscous hyaluronic acid is suitable for restoring volume, while a finer and more fluid hyaluronic acid is used for treating fine wrinkles. Currently, there are many manufacturers of hyaluronic acid. Kliniek aan de Maas has chosen fillers of the highest quality with FDA approval. They come in a wide variety of formulations, ensuring that there is an ideal filler for every indication. Our cosmetic doctors KNMG work with Juvederm (Allergan), Restylane (Galderma), and Belotero (Merz).

Results
The results of most fillers are immediately visible. The effect lasts for 6 to 24 months, depending on the type of filler used and the area of application.
Before treatment
Before a treatment, you will have an intake session that includes a health screening. During the intake, the area to be treated and the treatment method will be determined. You will also be informed about the pre- and post-care associated with the treatment. You should not consume alcohol 24 hours before the treatment, and we advise stopping fish oil capsules a week prior to reduce the risk of bruising. Additionally, your medical history will be reviewed before the treatment.
Upon arrival, you will be greeted at the reception. The receptionist ensures the correct and safe processing of your information. If necessary, photos will be taken for your file. You will then take a seat in our waiting area, where your practitioner will collect you. You may also sit here if you wish to wait a bit after your treatment before heading home. A filler treatment takes between 15 and 60 minutes, depending on the extent of the procedure.
We kindly ask you not to wear makeup when you come for a treatment.
Aftercare
Important Things to Know:
- The result may or may not be immediately visible, depending on the filler used.
- The optimal result is usually visible after a few days, once any side effects such as swelling, bruising, redness, itching, and sensitivity have subsided.
- The effects of the first treatment typically last between 6 and 24 months, making it temporary. The duration depends on the filler used.
- Not everyone reacts the same way to the product; the longevity of the effects can vary significantly from person to person. If you feel that the effect of a particular product lasts shorter than expected, discuss this with your practitioner during your next treatment.
Some Guidelines to Follow After the Treatment:
- Sunbathing, facial massages, and the use of makeup, scrubs, peels, saunas, or tanning beds are not recommended in the first few days after the treatment.
- In the first two weeks after the treatment, it is advisable to avoid connective tissue massages or visits to the dental hygienist, dentist, or oral surgeon.
