What is a Softlifting Forever?
Softlifting Forever is an innovative and painless technique of injections of fillers, which refreshes and illuminates the skin tone, reduces wrinkles and lifts all features of a face without altering or changing the individual’s personality and natural expressivity.
What is the ideal client profile for a Softlifting Forever?
Male or female, who has observed a loss of volume and contour definition of their face, and who wish a lifting-effect but not a surgical procedure.
What is the technique?
Traditional methods of filler injections consist in filling wrinkles and folds with hyaluronic acid thus making them disappear. During a Softlifting Forever, the medical practitioner places and distributes the substance using a different method. He goes further than just filling-in wrinkles, by creating under the skin a regular, very thin but dense cross-hatched matrix of hyaluronic acid, to compensate the age-related general loss of this essential component of skin tissue. This innovative injection technique restores firmness to the skin while resulting in an overall visible tightening effect, hence creating the desired lifting effect.
What are the products and materials used?
- Cross-linked hyaluronic acid, a natural biodegradable substance to which a small dose of local anaesthetic has been added
- A very thin, flexible needle with a soft blunted extremity to avoid damaging the sub-cutaneous tissues it penetrates
Why use hyaluronic Acid?
1. Hyaluronic acid is a natural and essential constituent of the skin’s extra-cellular matrix. It is therefore very well tolerated once injected.
2. Hyaluronic acid has a strong capacity to capture and retain water in its microenvironment. When injected, it therefore leads to a powerful and prolonged hydrating effect.
3. Hyaluronic acid stimulates non-active fibroblasts to produce new collagen. This collagen will restructure the skin tissues and optimize its qualities, in particular its elasticity, and texture.
4. Hyaluronic acid brings volume to skin tissues. With age, our cells’ own production of hyaluronic acid decreases, resulting in a loss of skin structure, volume and plumpness. Wrinkles and cavities begin to appear and folds start deepening. Hyaluronic acid injections allow a restructuring of facial features and skin, while filling wrinkles and folds.
What are the results obtained?
This injection technique restores firmness and tightens the skin, by creating a visible and very natural lifting effect. Skin tone recovers its radiance, wrinkles are significantly reduced and sagging parts of the face are lifted.

What are the inconveniences of this technique?
They are few:
