Hyaluronic Acid Injection in Cologne
As a result of facial expressions, external influences and the natural ageing process, the skin increasingly loses its elasticity and moisture, more and more wrinkles form and the overall appearance of the skin appears sagging. Do you still want radiant, firm facial skin in a natural, safe and quick way? With a hyaluronic acid treatment at the PALMKLINIK, we can give you an immediately visible facial rejuvenation without lifting or Botox.
Hyaluronic acid fillers have several advantages for you: they enable a very quick and natural result, are harmless to the body and naturally disappear after a while. This makes hyaluronic acid injections highly effective and safe at the same time.

What is the effect of hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan in medical terms, is a polysaccharide. The transparent, gel-like liquid is a connective tissue substance found naturally in the body, for example in skin cells or joints. Hyaluronic acid has the ability to bind water in large quantities.
However, the moisture content of the skin decreases, especially with age, causing it to lose its elasticity and wrinkles to become increasingly visible. In these cases, hyaluronic acid acts as a moisture reservoir that helps the skin regain its elasticity with a plumping effect, visibly smoothes wrinkles and specifically increases the volume of various areas of the skin. In addition, hyaluronic acid injections stimulate the formation of collagen, which further enhances the effect. Due to this filling effect, such active complexes are also known as fillers.

Hyaluronic Acid Injections – Treatment Procedure
After a consultation in which we discuss together which areas of skin need to be treated, the actual hyaluronic acid treatment takes place. Beforehand, we will provide you with recommendations for action, including abstaining from alcohol and nicotine as well as blood-thinning medication.
Before treatment begins, the skin is cleaned and disinfected and, if necessary, an anaesthetic cream is applied. The hyaluronic acid is then precisely injected into the desired areas of skin and wrinkles to fill them. Very fine injection needles with a diameter of approximately 0.3 mm are used for this.
At the PALMKLINIK, we use hyaluronic acid of the highest quality with varying degrees of cross-linking, depending on the depth of the wrinkles and the treatment objective. As hyaluronic acid is an endogenous substance, allergic reactions can be ruled out as far as possible. You can see the preliminary results immediately after the treatment.
Hyaluronic Acid Injections – Aftercare
You should take it easy for about a day after the treatment. The skin may be slightly swollen and reddened immediately after the treatment; this is completely normal and should not cause you any concern. To ensure a smooth healing process and the best possible results, you should observe the following recommendations:
- Cooling after consultation with your doctor
- Avoid saunas, swimming pools and sporting activities for the first few days
- Avoid sunbathing for at least 2 weeks, use high UV protection
- Initially avoid alcohol and nicotine
- Do not wear make-up for the first few days
- Drink plenty of water
- Use nourishing or cooling creams as required
- Avoid kissing at first after lip injections

Frequently asked Questions about Treatment with Hyaluronic Acid
You probably have a lot of questions about hyaluronic acid injections. To make your decision easier, we answer the most common ones below. However, please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. Arrange a non-binding consultation at the PALMKLINIK.
How many Treatments are necessary?
Satisfactory results can be achieved with a single hyaluronic acid injection.
When will we see the final result?
The temporary result can be seen immediately after the treatment. It may take around 14 days before the final result is visible.
How long does the effect of hyaluronic acid last?
Hyaluronic acid is gradually broken down by the body. Depending on the type of cross-linking, the effect of the hyaluronic acid can last between 3 and 18 months. The treatment should then be repeated.
How much does a hyaluronic acid treatment cost?
The costs vary from person to person and depend on the skin areas to be treated and the desired result. As a rule, you can expect to pay from €350.00 for 1 ml of hyaluronic acid.
Is a hyaluronic acid treatment painful?
We use very fine needles that only cause a slight pulling sensation. If necessary, we can also apply a local anesthetic so that you do not feel anything. After the treatment, the skin may feel slightly tight or burn.
Why should you drink a lot after a hyaluronic acid treatment?
Hyaluronic acid binds water, and we want to achieve this effect with the treatment. For optimum results, you should therefore drink plenty of water after the hyaluronic acid injection. We recommend that you drink at least 2 liters of water per day.
