What is water light injection?
- As the name suggests, it is a mesodermal procedure that makes the skin moist and radiant. Tired and damaged skin cells become fatigued, the oil-moisture balance collapses, and aging is accelerated. In addition, it is a water component in the dermis that attracts moisture and maintains elasticity in the skin. A decrease in hyaluronic acid can aggravate dry skin. As a way to improve this, ‘water light Injection’, which regenerates hyaluronic acid in the dermis, is in the limelight. Let’s find out about the effect of water light injection that replenishes lost moisture.
- Water glowing injection was an alias given in the sense that it gives a moist, watery glow to the skin. Water-glow injection simply restores the feeling of moisture and produces only a moist moisture glow. Rather, it directly injects hyaluronic acid, a component of skin tissue, into the dermal layer. It is sensitive to external stimuli by making it firm from the deepest part of the skin layer. It is a skin treatment method that restores and prevents redness, melanin pigmentation, and melasma that have been reacting.

The injected hyaluronic acid component duration depends on the individual’s lifestyle, environmental factors, gender, age, occupation, etc.
Although there are individual differences, it is normal for it to last about 6 to 12 months. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day to maximize the effect after water light injection.
Apply moisturizing cream often enough and do it without fatigue
The more you quit drinking, the better it works.
How to manage water light injection
- hyaluronic acid injected by water light treatment is used to pull the surrounding moisture. Because of this property, the skin feels temporarily dernier after the procedure. So, you need to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, along with coffee or green tea. The best way to maximize the effect is to consume fewer caffeine products that cause diuretic effects.
2) After the procedure, some (1%) erythema, swelling, or bruising may partially appear on the treated area, but It usually goes away in 1–2 days.
3) Do not take any other treatment on the day of the procedure and for about a month after the water light procedure It is recommended to avoid strong Fraxel treatment or strong meridians.
4) After the procedure, if you received the procedure in the morning, you can wash your face late in the afternoon, and you can do the procedure in the evening.
If you receive it, it is recommended to do it the next morning. You can apply makeup from the day after the procedure, but make it as light as possible.
You can do it as usual after 3 days of the procedure, and apply a lot of moisturizing cream.
5) Avoid activities that cause deep heat, such as sauna exercise, for the time being.
(Depending on age, avoid 3–5 days, especially for patients with immune diseases (diabetes, etc.) for about a week.)
6) After the procedure, make-up should have a good level of rubbing and color, and use a moist, rather than dry foundation or powder-type makeup.
It is recommended to apply this type of water-glow makeup so that the skin can fully breathe and draw in moisture.
7) Avoiding drinking and smoking for up to 3 days after the procedure does not cause an inflammatory reaction, and drinking, in particular, dries the skin.
Hyaluronic acid injected through water light treatment can prevent the effect of creating volume by absorbing enough moisture.
8) After taking a shower or washing your face, touch dry to remove the water so that the injected drug is not lost.
9) Depending on the skin type, absorption is different, so there may be small swelling for up to a week.
