Water glow injection
Hyaluronic acid spread evenly in the dermis for hydration and glow
A water glow injection places hyaluronic acid evenly in the dermis as tiny droplets to add hydration and glow. The dewiness is usually felt fairly early, while changes in texture and firmness build over several sessions.

What it is
What is Water glow injection?
Unlike volumising filler, a water glow injection places thin hyaluronic acid densely in the upper skin. It covers the whole face evenly and is priced per session.
Depending on your skin it is injected by hand or with a device at a consistent depth, and any added ingredients and the area are set after examination.
How it works
How it works
Hyaluronic acid spread evenly in the skin draws in water so the skin looks dewy and smooth. It is absorbed gradually, so it is usually planned as a few sessions two to four weeks apart at first, then spaced out for maintenance.

The process
How a visit works
Consultation & AI skin analysis
An AI skin analysis records where your skin is today; one of our co-directors then examines you and decides whether to treat, how strongly and where.
Preparation
After cleansing, numbing cream is applied and left to work fully.
Treatment
Small amounts are injected densely across the whole face.
After your visit
After a calming finish you go home with instructions while the marks settle.
Aftercare
Recovery & aftercare
- Small raised marks and red dots usually settle within a day or two.
- Bruising is occasional and fades in about a week.
- On the day, it is best to avoid make-up, rubbing the face hard and saunas.
Sessions & spacing
Usually a few sessions two to four weeks apart, then spaced out for maintenance. How long it lasts depends on age, UV exposure and lifestyle.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
When will I see results?
Dewiness is often felt fairly soon after treatment, while texture and firmness change gradually over sessions.
How long does it last?
Often described as a few months, but it depends on age, UV and lifestyle, so we review progress to plan the next session.
How is it different from filler?
Filler builds volume, while a water glow injection focuses on hydration and glow in the upper skin.
How painful is it?
With numbing cream it feels like repeated small pricks.
