Hyaron explained
Hyaron is a sodium hyaluronate injection made by a Korean pharmaceutical company. It is a non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid, so it is thin and spreads easily. Clinics in Seoul often use it as a budget-friendly base for water glow (mulgwang) treatments.
How Hyaron works
The hyaluronic acid is injected into the upper dermis in many small drops, usually with a multi-needle injector. It holds water in the skin, so the face looks smoother and more dewy. Because it is not crosslinked, the body breaks it down faster than filler. Repeated sessions give a more lasting effect.
