What are aesthetic injections?
The aesthetic injections today represent a benchmark solution in aesthetic medicine to find younger-looking skin, smooth and dazzling without surgery. These treatments effectively prevent and correct the visible signs of skin ageing while preserving the natural harmony of your face.
Hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally present in our bodies, renowned for its exceptional moisturising properties. Over time, our bodies produce less of it, leading to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles known as dehydration lines. At the same time, we lose collagen at a rate of 1% per year from the age of 20, causing the skin to sag and volumes to shift from top to bottom. Hyaluronic acid and bio-stimulants help to compensate for, and even correct, hydration and volume.
The injections offered in our centres at de Geneva, Lausanne or Nyon use different absorbable products adapted to each specific need. The BOTOX acts on expression lines at the top of the face, while’HYALURONIC ACID or BIOSTIMULANTS (Sculptra or Radiesse) can be used to redefine contours (oval of the face, cheekbones), fill in dark circles, project the chin, moisturise, increase volume or simply redefine lips.
These aesthetic medicine treatments offer the advantage of being gradual, customisable and reversible, thus guaranteeing results that perfectly match your expectations.

All our treatments are carried out by medical experts in aesthetic medicine, trained in the most advanced injection techniques. This expertise guarantees not only natural results, but also optimum safety during every procedure.
Common and temporary side effects
As with any medical procedure, injections can cause temporary side-effects. The most common are redness, swelling, bruising or haematomas. These discomforts disappear within 2 to 7 days. A feeling of tension or a slight disturbance of sensitivity may be felt in the treated area for a few days. The use of an anaesthetic cream before the injection and the application of cold after the treatment help to minimise these sensations.

breast-feeding, active skin infection in the area to be treated or known allergy to the components of the injected product.

Frequently asked questions about aesthetic injections
Are hyaluronic acid injections painful?
Injections are generally well tolerated. Most patients describe a sensation of pressure or tingling during and immediately after the injection. An anaesthetic cream can be applied prior to treatment to minimise discomfort. Modern products often contain built-in lidocaine (an anaesthetic) to improve comfort during the injection.
What is the difference between botox and hyaluronic acid?
Botox acts on the muscles responsible for expression lines (forehead, crow's feet, frown lines) by temporarily relaxing them. Hyaluronic acid is used to moisturise, restore volume (temples), lift (oval of the face) and erase wrinkles. Botox prevents dynamic wrinkles, while hyaluronic acid is used to correct sagging wrinkles and reshape the contours of the face.
How long do the results of injections last?
The duration varies according to the product used and the area treated. Botox lasts from 4 to 6 months. Hyaluronic acid lasts from 6 months (hydration) to 2 years (temples, chin). Bio-stimulators (Sculptra, Radiesse, HarmonyCa) last from 12 to 24 months.
Is there a risk of allergy with injections?
Allergies to hyaluronic acid are extremely rare because hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally present in the body. The resorbable products used are highly purified and tested. If there is a history of allergy, the doctor will assess the benefit-risk of the planned procedure during the preliminary consultation. The resorbable nature of the products offers additional safety.
Can I resume my normal activities after the injections?
Yes, you can resume your daily activities immediately after treatment. However, it is advisable to avoid strenuous physical activity, sauna and sun exposure for 48 hours. Make-up can be applied the following day. Redness or slight swelling may be visible for a few hours to a few days.
Do injections to increase lip volume look natural?
Absolutely. The aim of our treatments is to achieve a harmonious, natural result. The doctor adapts the quantity of hyaluronic acid and the injection technique to the morphology of your lips and your wishes. Our hyaluronic acids hydrate, plump and redefine the contours of your lips, while preserving their suppleness and natural appearance.
Can injections treat dark circles?
Yes, injections are a very effective way of treating dark circles. Hyaluronic acid fills the hollow under the eye. PRF gel, which is completely bio-compatible, helps to improve the quality of the fine skin in this area and reduce the appearance of hollow circles. These treatments brighten up the eyes by reducing the tired look caused by dark circles.
How much do aesthetic injections cost at FOREVER - Geneva, Lausanne and Nyon?
Prices vary according to the treatment and the amount of product required. Botox injections start at CHF 300, hyaluronic acid injections at CHF 550, and bio-stimulant and PROFHILO treatments from CHF 600. After analysing your specific needs, we will give you a personalised quote during your initial consultation.
Can several types of injections be combined in the same session?
Yes, it is entirely possible to combine several treatments for an overall harmonious result. For example, botox and hyaluronic acid injections are possible, as are hydrating hyaluronic acid injections with hyaluronic acid to sculpt the face, or bio-stimulants with botox and/or hyaluronic acid injections. The doctor will draw up a personalised protocol based on your needs.
How do I choose between Radiesse, Sculptra and hyaluronic acid?
The choice depends on your objectives, but also on your skin quality and lifestyle. Hyaluronic acid gives an immediate effect to correct your problem, while biostimulants treat your skin quality for a long-lasting, elegant result. Sculptra is recommended for thin skin with a loss of density. Radiesse is more suitable for thicker skin, when a slight tightening effect is also desired.
Can injections correct facial asymmetry?
Yes, injections can be used to correct slight to moderate facial asymmetries. Whether in the chin, cheekbones, oval of the face or lips, hyaluronic acid helps to achieve a better facial balance.
What is the difference between cosmetic medicine and cosmetic surgery?
Aesthetic medicine uses resorbable products with procedures that can be carried out in the surgery, without anaesthetic or with a light local anaesthetic, and with little or no social withdrawal. Aesthetic surgery uses a local or even general anaesthetic, often with social withdrawal of 1 to 2 weeks and lasting or even permanent results. Aesthetic medicine offers excellent results with few restrictions, and at FOREVER is complemented by regenerative medicine.
