This is use to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging, to give a smoother more youthful appearance. It can provide hydration and add some volume to the skin through adding hyaluronic acid, which is in nature a substance found inside a dermis. Here it serves the purpose to preserve the moisture, ensuring the structure as well as elasticity of the skin are left in place.
Captique is to be injected into the deeper skin layers, which is through the dermis, a course of injections, and performed only by a trained doctor; possibly a dermatologist or a cosmetic surgeon. Typically, it is about as follows:
Consultation: The physician will assess the areas that will be treated and talk over the desired outcome. It is also the time when all possible risks or side effects will be discussed.
Preparation: The skin will be cleaned prior to treatment, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to the area to reduce discomfort. Certain formulations of Captique have lidocaine, which is a local anesthetic, to help reduce the pain associated with the injection.
Injection: The doctor will inject Captique using a fine needle or cannula into the targeted areas. This procedure usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.
Post-Treatment Care: There may be some puffiness, redness, or bruising at the areas of injection. These side effects are usually temporary and would resolve within a few days. You may be counseled to avoid any strenuous exercise or making up for 24 hours after the injections.
Captique is hyaluronic acid that is injected into the skin where wrinkles or volume loss is experienced. This hyaluronic acid then helps hydrate the skin and restore lost volume; thus, it makes the wrinkles appear less prominent, and the treated area volumizes. The treatment begins to work almost immediately, so patients will generally notice improvements to their appearance right after undergoing the treatment.
Benefits
Here are some of them in detail:
Captique restores lost volume to it while aging. The skin always becomes loose and saggy while losing volume, which produces hollow areas and deep lines. It fills in all the wrinkles and facial hollows. It works well around cheeks, eyes underlined areas, and jawline hollow.
Hydrates the Skin: Hyaluronic acid is one of the most important molecules to retain water molecules. In that way, it’s responsible for hydrating the skin, thereby giving it a plump and more youthful look.
Smooths Wrinkles and Folds: Captique smoothens small and deep wrinkles and folds around nasolabial folds- these lines that go down from the nose to the sides of the mouth and the marionette lines going down from the corners of the mouth, among other facial wrinkles and eye lines.
While Captique is one of the safest cosmetic treatments available, any cosmetic procedure does have its risks and side effects. These are normally mild and short-term but may be there:
Swelling and Redness: There is often mild swelling and redness at the areas of injections. This normally occurs right after the injection has been administered and generally will resolve within hours to days.
Bruising: The injection site might be bruised in some people. This may occur for individuals with a tendency to bruise readily.
Lumps or Bumps: Lumps or bumps under the skin at the point of injection usually occur. These are transient and tend to settle in time, therefore flattening out.
Allergic Reaction: This may happen although infrequently. In rare instances, individuals react with allergies to the fillers. One may experience itching, rashes, or swellings. If this becomes a more serious reaction, consult your healthcare provider.
Infection: Just as with all injections, infections may result at the sites injected.
Pregnancy and Breast Feeding: Captique has not been studied to a reasonable extent in pregnant or lactating women, so typically this treatment is avoided when the patient is pregnant or lactating unless the physician prescribes it.
Active Skin Conditions: If there are active skin conditions, such as eczema, rashes, or cold sores in the area to be treated, one should wait until the affected area heals before getting injected.
If allergic to lidocaine or any other anesthetic, you must let your doctor know because some formulations of Captique contain lidocaine for numbing the treatment area before performing the treatment.
Captique is a dermal filler containing hyaluronic acid, used for reducing facial wrinkles and folds. While it is generally safe, some interactions and precautions should be considered:
Always consult a healthcare professional before receiving Captique if taking any of these medications.
The number of injections usually depends on the severity of the wrinkles or volume loss in your face. In most people, 1 to 2 syringes will suffice for wrinkles or facial volume loss. The injection must be repeated every 6 to 12 months because the effects wear off. Your doctor will work with you in creating a treatment plan appropriate to your needs and end goals.
Captique is a medication and has to be injected by an authorized medical practitioner; this may include a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon. A consultation will have to be undertaken in order to check if you qualify for the use of Captique and also that the process goes safely and smoothly.
