Stylage is a brand of aesthetic products for the face and body, manufactured by Vivacy Laboratories. Stylage fillers are injectable gels based on hyaluronic acid (HA), which is an essential component of the skin’s chemistry, responsible for its hydration, elasticity, and firmness. As we age, the production of HA slows down, the skin loses its shape, and wrinkles, lines and skin creases appear.
To help reduce age-related changes and improve the appearance of the skin, Vivacy Laboratories have developed a wide range of injectable dermal fillers based on biocompatible hyaluronic acid and antioxidants.
How Stylage Works
The desired aesthetic results are achieved through the actions of two powerful ingredients:
- Concentrated hyaluronic acid that helps hydrate the skin and stimulates the production of natural collagen and elastin in the skin
- Mannitol, an antioxidant, which prevents the degradation of hyaluronic acid by free radicals, making the effects last longer. In addition, the inclusion of this component reduces the redness and swelling associated with the injection procedure itself.
Stylage fillers are perfectly suited for facial contouring. With the various concentrations of HA throughout the product line, Stylage can be used to fix the symmetry of the face, increase lip volume, augment cheekbones, and eliminate acne scars and wrinkles. The effects are noticeable almost immediately, but you will see the final result after 2-3 days. The effects can last for up to 12 months. Post-treatment biodegradation depends on the patient’s lifestyle, age, skin type, and other factors.
