Ingredients:
- Reinforced Hyaluronic Acid 12.5 mg
- Phosphate and mannitol buffer - pH 7.2 qsp 1 g
- 1 ml pre-filled syringe
ACTION MODE
The products must be injected into the area to be treated, where they will rehydrate the Skin and reinforce its elasticity. The products are then slowly reabsorbed over time. Depending on the patient's skin type and the depth of the injection, one to three injection sessions are required for optimal Skin treatment. Regular touch-up sessions will ensure that the desired correction lasts.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
The products must not be used
- In association with a peel, laser treatment or dermabrasion. The practitioner must decide how long to wait after these treatments before injecting.
- In patients with a tendency to develop hypertrophic scars.
- In patients with a known hypersensitivity to one of the components.
- Pregnant or Milk feeding women or Children.
- In or near areas with inflammatory or infectious skin problems (acne, herpes, etc).
Furthermore, Stylage® HydroMax should not be used:
- In patients with fructose intolerance.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
- It is strongly recommended to obtain the patient's informed consent prior to treatment.
- If your patient has a history of herpes, there is a risk that needle punctures may cause a new outbreak of herpes.
- For patients with a history of autoimmune disease, the practitioner must decide on the indication on a case-by-case basis, depending on the nature of the disease and associated treatments. In addition, the practitioner will have to monitor these patients closely, in particular by offering them a double test beforehand and by not injecting them if the disease is progressive.
- Patients with a history of streptococcal disease, such as recurrent sore throat or rheumatic fever, should undergo a double test before any injection. In the case of rheumatic fever with cardiac localisation, injection is not recommended.
- In the case of haemostasis disorders or anticoagulant treatment, the risk of haematomas is increased.
- Aspirin, NSAIDs, platelet aggregation inhibitors, anticoagulants or Vitamin C should not be taken in the week preceding the injection.
- The products must not be injected into blood vessels. Any accidental intravascular injection could cause vascular occlusion, which could lead to rare but serious complications such as visual impairment, blindness, necrosis of the skin and/or underlying tissues, depending on the area injected.
- The products must not be injected into the nerves. Any accidental nerve damage could cause transient paresthesia.
- It is recommended that Stylage® implants are not injected into an area that has already been corrected with implants other than those in the Stylage® range, as no clinical data is available for such cases.
- It is advisable not to mix with any other product.
- Only the needles supplied with the products should be used for injection, as the combination of these two devices has been validated.
- To inject Stylage® HydroMax, the practitioner will select the needle with the appropriate injection length according to the area treated, the type of correction required and the injection technique chosen.
- Inject slowly to avoid overcorrection.
- In the event of increased pain during injection, stop the procedure and remove the needle.
- Do not use if the packaging is damaged (syringe, blister, lid).
- Inject immediately after opening.
- Dispose of the syringe and the residual product at the end of the injection, as well as the needles in an appropriate collection point, in accordance with the national regulations in force.
- Stylage® implants are for single use only. Do not reuse.
An implant must only be used for one patient in order to prevent any risk of cross-contamination.
- After opening, the product cannot be resterilised under any circumstances, even if the implant has not been injected.
ADVICE TO PATIENTS
- Recommend that patients massage themselves thoroughly in the days following the injection, particularly when the micropapule technique has been used.
- Recommend the use of a high factor Suncare cream for a fortnight following treatment.
- Recommend that the patient does not wear make-up for 12 hours after the injection and avoids exposing the treated area to sources of intense heat (UV, sauna, hammam) or extreme cold, at least until any post-injection swelling or redness has disappeared.
- The practitioner must inform the patient that he/she must keep him/her informed of any "abnormal" development of the treated area (see adverse reactions).
UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS
The practitioner must inform the patient of any immediate or delayed side effects that may occur after the injection of the products, in particular (non-exhaustive list):
- Inflammatory reactions such as redness, oedema or erythema, potentially associated with itching and/or Pains at the injection site, which usually resolve within a week.
- Haematomas.
- Induration or nodules, Colouring or discolouration at the injection site.
- Poor efficiency or poor filling effect.
- Local mobility of the implant.
- Rare cases of necrosis, abscess, granuloma and hypersensitivity have been described in the literature following Hyaluronic Acid injections. Patients should be informed of these cases.
- The incidence of adverse reactions may be increased in patients with a severe allergic background, dermatological pathology, haemostasis disorders or inflammatory pathology, or if the precautions for use are not observed.
- The patient should inform the practitioner of any of the above adverse reactions that persist for more than a week, or of the appearance of any other adverse reaction. The practitioner should report this to the retailer or manufacturer as soon as possible and provide appropriate management.
