There are so many types of hyaluronic acid—which one is actually the best?
My journey into aesthetic medicine stems from a desire to help enrich and beautify lives beyond simply treating illness. My specialties include hyaluronic acid, Botox, and thread lifts. I provide treatments that enhance each individual's unique qualities and bring out an elegant, natural beauty. For concerns around the eyes that are difficult to improve with dermatology alone, I also perform surgical procedures. By integrating dermatology and surgery, I holistically balance the entire face. With three periods of overseas study, I am also able to provide consultations in English.
Hello!
I am Ayuri Yokoyama, a plastic surgeon and cosmetic dermatologist.
Bianca carries various types of hyaluronic acid.
During counseling sessions, we provide personalized recommendations for lumber to each individual, but
You're probably wondering what the difference is, right?
So this time, I'd like to talk about the differences between hyaluronic acid products and how to choose the right one for your needs.
Let me introduce the characteristics of four representative brands while comparing them.
Comparison of 4 Brands
Within each brand series, there are several types that differ in hardness (to put it simply).
So it's hard to generalize based solely on brand classification, but I'll give you a rough explanation.

Summary
When it comes to hyaluronic acid, choosing the optimal formulation based on your specific goals and target area is more important than finding a single "best" option.
It is often the case that multiple types of hyaluronic acid are combined at once.
During your consultation, discuss your goals, preferences, injection sites, and allergy history to receive a recommendation for the most suitable formulation.
Hyaluronic acid injections are a complex procedure, and both knowledge and technique vary greatly between doctors, making the choice of practitioner crucial.
I would be delighted if you could come in for a consultation, even just once.
We are also accepting monitor applications at any time!
