Other injectable treatments in Munich-Bogenhausen

Hylase: targeted reduction or dissolution of hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that can break down suitable hyaluronic acid fillers. It is used to correct selected filler results or to respond to certain medical situations.

Possible reasons include overcorrection, unwanted volume, migration, unbalanced contours, certain nodules or accumulations of material, and selected complications.

It is not always necessary to dissolve everything

Depending on the findings, partial correction may make more sense than complete dissolution. The aim is not automatically to remove all existing material, but to assess the situation appropriately from an anatomical and aesthetic perspective.

Risks

Hyaluronidase can also temporarily affect the body's own hyaluronic acid. Swelling, redness, bruising and allergic reactions are possible. Rare severe hypersensitivity reactions require careful discussion and preparation.

Fat-dissolving injections: injection lipolysis for selected small fat deposits

Fat-dissolving injections, or injection lipolysis, are not a method of general weight loss. They are only considered for selected localised fat deposits that may remain a concern despite a stable weight.

Not every unwanted bulge consists mainly of treatable fat tissue. The area, skin condition and intended product are assessed together before a decision is made.

Why the specific product matters

The umbrella term fat-dissolving injection does not describe one standardised product. The active ingredient, intended application and risks may differ. A recommendation for a particular area therefore cannot be based on the name alone.

Limitations

The treatment does not replace weight loss or liposuction for larger amounts of fat. If the skin is expected to look noticeably loose after volume reduction, skin quality must be taken into account in the decision.

Reactions

Swelling, redness, tenderness, a sensation of warmth or bruising are possible and may be clearly visible depending on the area.

Carboxytherapy: treatment with medical carbon dioxide

During carboxytherapy, medical carbon dioxide is introduced into selected tissue areas in a controlled manner. The body's local response includes changes in microcirculation.

The procedure, depth and goal depend on the area and indication. Temporary sensations of pressure, warmth or tightness may occur. The carbon dioxide is absorbed by the body and exhaled through the lungs.

Course of treatment and limitations

Carboxytherapy is often carried out as a course of treatment. Whether it may be considered for a concern depends on the structure to be treated and the expected benefit.

Reactions

Possible effects include redness, a sensation of warmth, pressure, small bruises, swelling or local tenderness.

Toskani Myotec: consider cosmetics separately

Myotec is a product name used in professional cosmetics. The manufacturer's description places it within skincare for fine lines. This does not classify it as an injectable product.

A cosmetic peptide product should not be equated with a botulinum toxin treatment. Such comparisons establish neither the same effect nor a particular duration.

When choosing skincare, the specific application matters. Combining a product with microneedling is not an automatic addition and must be assessed separately from the treatment itself.
