A first session treats one area, conservatively. Your result is checked at a two-week review, and more can be added then if you want it. Stylage filler is hyaluronic acid, which can be dissolved, and the product that dissolves it is kept on site.

Before your first session, we walk you through each product, how it is made and what the evidence shows, so you can decide with full information.
It depends, and that is what your screening is for. Sessions are not offered during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with an unmanaged medical condition, or during or within 3 to 5 years of cancer treatment.
