Crystal Filling

Are Your Facial Features “Blurred”? Make Them Crystal Clear

One of the biggest complaints of patients in the aesthetic world is the loss of clarity of facial features due to age or structural reasons. The jawline loosens, the cheekbones fade and the face takes on a “tired, sagging and round” expression. Classical hyaluronic acid fillers are used to correct this situation, but sometimes they cannot give the desired “sharp” and “lift” effect because they are soft due to their structure, and they may even round the face even more.

Dr. Handan Yavuz At Medlook Polyclinic, our preference is clear when we want to shape the facial contour with the precision of a sculptor: Crystal Filling. Scientific name CaHA (Calcium Hydroxyapatite), is the closest filler to our bone structure. When injected under the skin, it acts like a “liquid bone”, lifting, sharpening and clarifying the face. The name “crystal” comes from the microscopic calcium spheres in its content that reflect light and create a smooth, clear result.

What is Crystal Filler (CaHA)? Where Does the Power Come From?

Kristal Dolgu, laboratuvar ortamında sentezlenen, insan vücuduyla %100 uyumlu (biyo-uyumlu) Kalsiyum Hidroksiapatit mikro-küreciklerinden oluşur. Bu madde, dişlerimizde ve kemiklerimizde bulunan kalsiyumun aynısıdır, bu nedenle alerji riski taşımaz.

1+1 > 2: Both Volume and Biological Repair

Crystal Filler is not just a passive cavity-filling material. It is a biological “stimulant”. Its effect takes place in two phases:

• Phase 1: Immediate Formation (Filling Effect): Enjektörün içindeki taşıyıcı jel (selüloz bazlı), işlem anında hacim verir. Çeneniz anında keskinleşir, elmacıklarınız anında yükselir. Klinikten çıktığınızda sonuç %100 hazırdır.
• Phase 2: Collagen Production (Biostimulation): After about 3 months, the carrier gel dissolves. While patients worry, “Has my filling dissolved?”, in fact the process has just begun. The calcium crystals left behind form a strong skeleton under the skin. Fibroblast cells wrap around these crystals your own natural collagen fibers starts knitting.

The result: Even if the filler dissolves, your skin is left with a support structure made of your own tissue, much stronger than before.

“Signature” Application Areas of Crystal Filling

Every filler has a specialty. Crystal Filler is unrivaled, especially in areas where bone support is required and the skin is thin.

1. Jawline and Jaw Tip

It is the first material that comes to mind when it comes to “Jawline Filler” in the world. Soft fillers can sag down or become flattened on the jawline over time. Crystal Filler draws a razor sharp line. In “jowl hiding” techniques, it is the most effective weapon to emphasize the jawline and push the jowl back.

2. Hand Rejuvenation (FDA Approved)

Hands are the areas that reveal age the most. When the subcutaneous fat tissue melts, veins, tendons and bones become prominent. Crystal Filler, FDA approved for hand back rejuvenation is one of the rare products. Thanks to its opaque (white) structure, when spread under the skin, it perfectly masks the underlying blue/purple vein appearance (“Covering Effect”) and thickens the skin.

3. Cheekbone (Zygoma) Lifting

The “suspension point” that lifts the face up is the cheekbones. When the crystal filler is applied here, it creates a strong lever effect and allows the nasolabial (nose edge) grooves to open.

4. Male Aesthetics (Masculinization)

Our male patients are usually worried that “My face will not become feminine and swell”. Crystal Filler is the most ideal material to strengthen male facial features (angular chin, prominent cheekbones) because it does not hold water and does not swell.

Why Crystal Filler and not Hyaluronic Acid?

As a patient, you may ask the following question: “Why shouldn't I have the well-known Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers?” The answer is related to what your need is.

Dr. Handan Yavuz's Advice: “If your face has ‘sagging’ and ‘fading lines’ rather than volume loss, it always looks more natural and aesthetic to strengthen the skeleton with Crystal Filler instead of inflating the face with soft fillers.”

The Medlook Difference Holistic Crystal Protocol

No aesthetic procedure is isolated at Medlook Polyclinic. Crystal Filler is a powerful biological agent that triggers collagen production. We support the body from the inside to increase the efficiency of this agent.

1. IV (Intravenous) Support Therapies

Fibroblast cells, which are stimulated by the crystal filler, need “raw material”. Simultaneously with the procedure IV Vitamin C and Glutathione, improves the quality of collagen synthesis. This combination prolongs the life of the filler.

2. Bone and Mineral Balance

While applying a calcium-based procedure, we also consider the general mineral balance of our patient. Especially in our post-menopausal female patients, we question the balance of vitamin D and calcium and recommend support with a holistic approach.

3. Non-Traumatic Application with Cannula

Crystal Filler should not be administered intravenously due to its dense structure. In our clinic, flexible “Cannulas” with blunt ends are used. In this way, the risk of vascular injury is reduced to zero, no bruising occurs and the patient can return to social life immediately after the procedure.

Safety Is Crystal Filler Harmful?

Calcium Hydroxyapatite (CaHA) is one of the safest biomaterials used in medicine (vocal cord repair, urology, dentistry) for over 25 years. It has FDA approval and CE certification.

• X-ray View: Because it contains calcium, it may appear white like bone on X-rays or CT scans. This is not a problem, you just need to tell your doctor that you have had a filling.
• Is There a Comeback? It does not have a dissolving drug like hyaluronic acid. Although this may seem like a disadvantage, it actually shows the stability of the product. Since it is a product that does not accept error, it is vital that the application is performed by specialist physicians who have a good command of anatomy, such as Dr. Handan Yavuz.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crystal Filling

How long does it last?

Depending on the metabolism of the person, the average 18-24 months is permanent. However, even if the filler melts, the area will never be as bad as before the procedure thanks to your own collagen left behind. It provides a permanent investment.

Can it be done on the lips?

No, it is not. Crystal filler is hard and white in color due to its structure. It may cause clumping in lips with mobile and thin mucous tissue. Soft HA fillers should be preferred for lips.

Is it a painful procedure?

No, it is not. The new generation Crystal Fillers we use at Medlook contain lidocaine (anesthetic substance) by itself. In addition, the cannula technique minimizes pain.

Will I feel stiffness in my face?

In the first 1 week, a slight stiffness may be felt during the seating process of the tissue, which is desirable for the jawline. Afterwards, it completely integrates with the tissue and feels natural.

Klasik dolgulara göre birim fiyatı daha yüksek gibi görünse de, sunduğu kalıcılık (2 yıla yakın) ve kolajen üretimi göz önüne alındığında, uzun vadede çok daha ekonomik bir yatırımdır.
