What is Aqualush?

Aqualush with hyaluronic acid is a skincare product that is designed to hydrate and nourish the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to retain moisture and plump up the skin. The addition of hyaluronic acid to the Aqualush formula is intended to enhance its moisturizing properties and improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. It is often used as a serum or moisturizer to help hydrate and rejuvenate the skin.

The device is a revolutionary non-surgical alternative to traditional cosmetic procedures.

What is the Aqua Injector?

The Aqua Injector is an advanced skincare device that delivers rejuvenating serums and skincare products such as hyaluronic acid directly into the dermis. The handheld device has a rounded applicator with a special needle that comfortably penetrates the skin to provide instant results. When used with the Aqualush hyaluronic acid serum, it helps improve skin hydration, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin texture and tone. The device is a revolutionary non-surgical alternative to traditional cosmetic procedures.

The Benefits of Aqualush

As skincare technology advances, more people are looking for non-surgical methods to refresh and improve the quality of their skin. Aqualush is one of the latest breakthroughs in cosmetic skincare. These are just a few benefits of Aqualush:

  • Hydration: Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body that helps to retain water, so the Aqualush treatment helps to hydrate the skin.
  • Plumper skin: By retaining water, the Aqualush treatment helps to plump up the skin, making it look smoother and more youthful.
  • Improved skin elasticity: Hylauronic acid also helps to support the skin’s structure, which can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Enhanced skin radiance: The hydrating effect of the Aqualush treatment can also help to enhance skin radiance, making it look more radiant and glowing.
  • Promotes collagen production: The Aqua Injector stimulates the dermis, activating new skin cell growth and collagen production. 
  • Fast treatment time: The streamlined design of the Aqua Injector allows practitioners to accurately target problem areas and rapidly deliver optimal doses of hyaluronic acid. Depending on the size of the treatment area, the treatment can take just 30 minutes.
  • Safe and non-invasive: The Aqualush treatment is non-invasive and doesn’t involve surgery, making it a safe option for people who want to improve the appearance of their skin.

The ideal candidates for the procedure are healthy adults who want a minimally invasive treatment to target dry.

Am I a Good Candidate For Aqualush Treatments?

At LEA Plastic Surgery, we recommend Aqualush for patients who are seeking hydro glow, antiaging, plumpness, and deep hydration. The ideal candidates for the procedure are healthy adults who want a minimally invasive treatment to target dry, dull skin, fine lines and wrinkles, and enlarged pores.

Aqualush is safe for adult men and women and it can be used nearly anywhere on the body, including the face, neck, chest, back, arms, legs, buttocks and thighs. It is typically used with hyaluronic acid. However, depending on the patient’s needs and anatomy, the Aqua Injector can also be used with Botox and Exosomes.


The Aqualush Consultation

As with any skincare procedure, it is important to consult with a medical professional beforehand to determine if the treatment is right for you. Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva offers comprehensive skincare consultations for Aqualush in Newport Beach, CA at LEA Plastic Surgery.

During the consultation, Dr. Ho Taghva will discuss your desired results and assess your medical history to determine whether you have any medical conditions or allergies. She will also thoroughly explain the procedure and what to expect during and after the treatment.

What to Expect During an Aqualush Treatment

The Aqualush treatment will take place in a comfortable and private treatment room at LEA Plastic Surgery. Your aesthetic nurse will ensure you are seated in a comfortable position, and they will gently cleanse the skin to remove any impurities. If you have sensitive skin or are worried about discomfort, the nurse may apply a topical numbing cream to the target areas prior to administering the serum. 

Once the skin is prepped, the practitioner will use the Aqua Injector device to deliver the hyaluronic acid into the skin. This device uses a small needle to gently infuse the hyaluronic acid into the skin, resulting in minimal discomfort and bruising. After the injection, the practitioner may massage the treated area to help distribute the hyaluronic acid evenly.

The entire treatment process typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour. Many patients see instant results, although it could take within 24 to 48 hours to see the full results. Patients may experience minor redness after treatment, but this typically disappears within a few hours.

Aftercare For an Aqualush Treatment

After your treatment, the aesthetic team at LEA Plastic Surgery will provide instructions for aftercare, including avoiding strenuous activity and exposure to the sun, and using a cold compress to reduce swelling and discomfort. Dr. Ho Taghva may schedule a follow-up appointment to assess the results.


Frequently Asked Questions About Aqualush

How does Aqualush improve the appearance of skin?

The Aqua Injector treatment with hyaluronic acid improves the appearance of skin by adding hydration to the skin, which results in a more youthful, radiant, and plump appearance. 

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps to retain moisture, but over time its levels decline, leading to dehydration and wrinkles. The Aqua Injector treatment delivers a concentrated dose of hyaluronic acid deep into the skin, where it can help to restore the skin’s natural moisture levels, improve skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Additionally, hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that help to keep the skin firm and elastic, further enhancing the skin’s appearance.

Is the Aqualush treatment safe?

The Aqualush serum contains hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance found in the body. It is commonly used in medical treatments, including injectables. The Aqua Injector device is designed to safely and comfortably inject hyaluronic acid and other skincare products directly into the skin quickly and efficiently with little to no adverse side effects.

Like any medical procedure, there is a risk of side effects, such as pain, swelling, and infection. It is important to have a thorough consultation with your doctor to discuss any potential risks and benefits before undergoing any treatment.

How long does the Aqualush procedure take?

The length of your treatment will vary depending on the size of the area you would like to treat and your particular skin care needs. Generally you can expect the entire procedure to take just 30 minutes.

How soon will I see results?

Many patients see results immediately after the Aqualush procedure. This is because the Aqua Injector directly injects the hyaluronic acid into the skin for instant hydration. You may notice that skin looks moisturized, glowing and plumper after the treatment. Within 24 to 48 hours you should notice visible improvement in skin tone, texture and brightness.

How many treatments will I need?

Aqualush is designed to be long-lasting. The serum delivers an immediate moisture boost that corrects and prevents dehydration. In addition, the injector device stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, which increases collagen production. Ongoing treatments can help maintain moisture levels and a brighter, more radiant complexion. Dr. Ho Taghva can advise you on a treatment plan for your unique needs.

Are there any side effects of Aqualush?

Very few patients experience negative side effects after an Aqualush treatment. The most common complaint is a slight redness after the procedure, but this usually subsides within a few hours. Less common side effects could include swelling, bruising, pain and infection.

How much does an Aqualush treatment cost?

Every patient has different skincare needs, so the cost of your treatment will depend on your aesthetic goals and needs. Dr. Ho Taghva can advise you on the cost of your treatment and payment options.

Where can I find an Aqualush office near me?
