A shot on the face has become a sought-after item for beauty lovers nowadays. However, many people do not know enough about micropigmentation, thinking that street beauty parlors and nail salons everywhere can engage in these projects. What exactly is micropigmentation? Injectable micropigmentation includes both fillers and pharmaceuticals. In the past, collagen was the mainstay of fillers, but in recent years, hyaluronic acid has been used more often. As for pharmaceuticals, it’s Botox. Injectable micropigmentation is not a one-time deal If a doctor tells you that one shot will last a lifetime, that’s terrible. Because these products have to be able to be metabolized for the body not to reject them and for them to be safe, technology is constantly slowing down the process, allowing absorption and metabolism to take place slowly, so that the effect lasts a little longer, but it can never be permanent. Hyaluronic acid generally maintain the effect of six to ten months, an average of eight months, depending on the individual absorption and differences, botulinum toxin is the best effect in three months, six to eight months will be basically metabolized, the effect of the longest will not be more than a year.

If the injection position is slightly off, it is possible to inject it into the blood vessels, leading to blood vessel blockage and causing local tissue necrosis.

Those injectable products that can be bought on the market either do not have a long duration of efficacy or injure the beauty user’s own safety. At present, there are three kinds of irregular injection products circulating in the market, which are smuggled products, counterfeit products and prohibited drugs banned by the state. It is not known whether they can bring beauty to consumers, but their harm has been proved time and again, light disfigurement, some can even be fatal! Haphazard injections of whitening injections can be fatal The main ingredients of whitening injections are vitamins B and C, glutathione and other coenzymes and other drugs.
