Macrolane Injections in Dubai:
Macrolane injection is an injectable body contouring technique that is formulated from the super-thick version of hyaluronic acid to fill in volume on larger body areas. It provides stronger augmentation and maintains structural integrity to enhance contours, augment the breast, lift up the buttocks, enhance calves, and fill in dents of visible body parts. The gel naturally integrates with the extracellular matrix of the body and physically augments soft tissue volume.

ToggleHow Does it Work?
Macrolane injections use Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid technology. It links HA polymer chains to create a more solid and dimensional network for resistant volume creation in larger areas.
When Macrolane is injected into the tissues, the gel matrix takes up the space and expands the area that provides instant volume and lifts the skin. The nature of hyaluronic acid attracts water from the surrounding tissues, which makes the results even better. NASHA gel integrates smoothly with the surrounding tissues for a natural feel.
Formulations of Macrolane:
Macrolane VRF 20:
VRF 20 is a less viscous gel that is used where softer enhancement is required. It is also suitable for areas with higher tissue density.
Macrolane VRF 30:
VRF 30 is a firmer gel that contains larger hyaluronic acid particles for a more solid production and severe skin lifting.

What Happens before Macrolane Injection:
Before Macrolane treatment, you will have a mandatory consultation with our doctors. They will examine your particular targeted areas, listen to your goals, and tell you the suitability of Macrolane injections for you. The expert will craft your personalized treatment plan with the required quantity of filler. After that, he will give you complete pricing details and schedule your treatment day.

Area | Amount of macrolane |
Buttocks | 150 to 400 ml per butt |
Breast | 85 to 90 ml per breast |

Pre-care planning:
The expert will also give you some pre-care tips, including
- Stop taking blood-thinning medications and supplements.
- Do not apply topical retinoids to your areas to be treated.
- Stay well hydrated and skip alcohol and smoking.
Procedure:
Cleaning the area:
The expert will disinfect the treatment area with an antiseptic liquid. This process will kill all germs and not allow them to penetrate into your skin.
Incision Creation:
Very minor incisions are made on the upper surface. These incisions are 2-3 mm in size, and they allow the injector to inject the filler into deep tissues for internal modification.
Injection:
A syringe containing Macrolane is connected to a thin needle cannula, and the cannula is inserted into the incision. The Macrolane gel is carefully delivered into the subcutaneous tissues.
For larger areas, the expert injects Macrolane in layers and at different points.
Reshaping the area:
After injecting the gel, the practitioner will immediately and gently mold the area to redistribute the filler and to avoid any unsymmetrical results. This step is mandatory to get the desired contours.
Incision Closing:
After resculpting the area, the doctor will close the small incisions with a single stitch. The stitches will dissolve or be removed in a few days.
Dressing:
Compression garments are applied to the area that will support the newly developed shape. You can return home within an hour.
