What is the HArmonyCa injection program?
HArmonyCa™ is a Hybrid Filler that works through two mechanisms: both facial filling and collagen stimulation. It is a Dual Effect that not only helps lift and fill the skin in the short term, but also provides long-term skin rejuvenation results. HArmonyCa™ uses a technology that combines two substances that have been researched for their effectiveness for a long time: hyaluronic acid (HA) and calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA). The combination of these two active substances helps increase the effectiveness of filler injections to another level within a single treatment.
HArmonyCa injection program provides 2 effective results in one tube.
- HArmonyCa injection program helps to increase skin volume and fill in imperfections: “HArmonyCa™ is effective immediately after injection. With the result of hyaluronic acid (HA) that helps to fill the face and correct deep lines such as under-eye circles, nasolabial folds and marionette lines, the face looks younger immediately after injection.
- HArmonyCa injection program stimulates collagen production: The calcium hydroxyapatite or CaHA in HArmonyCa™ provides results beyond just external skin rejuvenation. It stimulates the production of its own collagen, resulting in long-term results in firmness and skin quality.
- HArmonyCa injection program has a built-in local anesthetic: “HarmonyCa™ has a built-in local anesthetic, lidocaine, which helps make injections easier, more relaxing, and less painful.”
How does the HArmonyCa™ injection program work?
The “HarmonyCa™” injection program works through a synergistic process of HA and CaHA. Both substances have their own main functions. When combined, the results delivered to our skin and face are more effective.
- How HA (Hyarulonic Acid) Works
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance found in the skin, often known for its role in keeping the skin hydrated. In HArmonyCa™, HA acts as a volume-boosting agent, replacing tissue in areas where collagen is lost or fat cells have atrophied. It helps with wrinkles and deep lines, and also adds moisture to the skin through its water-retaining properties.
- HA is known as the main ingredient used in fillers, which have been used for a long time. HA is a complex sugar that mimics the HA in our skin, so it is certified to be compatible with the body.
- In HarmonyCa™ HA is strengthened and stays in the skin longer than natural HA, resulting in more visible and longer-lasting results.
- Mechanism of CaHA (Calcium Hydroxyapatite)
Calcium Hydroxyapatite, or CaHA for short, is another key component of the HarmonyCa™ injection program. It acts as a collagen biostimulator, and CaHA works slowly and over time to improve skin quality from within.
- Collagen stimulation: CaHA particles are very small spherical particles called Microspheres. When they enter the dermis, they stimulate fibroblast cells to create substances that help with skin structure, such as Proteoglycans and Elastin, followed by the creation of collagen fibers, which will gradually build from the first week after injection, until a collagen framework becomes both thicker and denser.
- Long-term skin tightening: The newly created collagen framework helps to lift the skin, reduce sagging, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and make the skin firmer, tighter, and more elastic. These results occur gradually and naturally.
- Slow Bioavailability: CaHA is slowly and naturally broken down, resulting in long-term skin results, typically lasting 12 to 18 months.
CaHA is a substance produced from bone or sea fish. It has the same characteristics as substances in the body. It has been used in medicine for a long time, especially in bone and dental surgery. It is biocompatible and highly safe.
The synergistic combination of HA and CaHA in HarmonyCa™ injections delivers immediate and lasting results, making HarmonyCa™ an ideal choice for today’s facial rejuvenation.
CaHA is a substance produced from bone or marine fish that has the same properties as the body. It has been used in medicine for a long time, especially in orthopedic and dental surgery. It is biocompatible and safe. The combination of HA and CaHA in HarmonyCa™ injection program provides immediate and lasting results, making HarmonyCa™ an ideal choice for facial rejuvenation today.
Who is the HArmonyCa injection program suitable for?
Harmonyca injection program is a Hybrid Filler that is suitable for those who want immediate results for their skin and face, along with long-term results. From the combination of HA and CaHA that takes filler injection to the next level.
- For those who have had filler injections and want longer-lasting results: For those who have had filler injections but want longer-lasting results and want results in terms of skin quality, the HArmonyCA injection program is another option, which will give results that last up to 18 months.
- Want to fill in the face to make it look younger
- Cheek augmentation: Harmonyca injection program is ideal for adding volume or replacing fat and bone in the cheek area that has shrunk with age.
- Sharpen the facial frame: The Harmonyca injection program helps fill and lift, making the cheeks firmer, the facial frame clearer, and can also be used to fill the facial frame directly.
- Reduce nasolabial folds and marionette lines: The Harmonyca injection program can fill in the nasolabial folds and marionette lines (from the effect of HA) and also strengthen the skin in that area, reducing fine wrinkles (from CaHA).
- Want to solve skin problems and naturally fill in your face?
- Want to show natural facial expressions: The components of the Harmonyca injection program can blend naturally with the skin, allowing for natural facial expressions. Therefore, it is suitable for injection in areas that move frequently, such as the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and cheeks.
- Those whose skin is starting to lack collagen and whose face is starting to look old
- Loss of Deep Structure: As we age, the face looks older due to its deep structure, both the fat layer that begins to atrophy and the bones in various areas that begin to thin and sag. The Harmonyca injection program is a solution to the root cause because it replaces these sunken areas.
- Deep lines and wrinkles: As we age, collagen and elastin decrease significantly, causing the skin to lose its elasticity, resulting in deep lines, wrinkles, nasolabial folds and marionette lines. The Harmonyca injection program will result from CaHA, a collagen stimulant, which makes the skin stronger.
What are the steps involved in the HArmonyCa injection program?
- Facial assessment and planning
The doctor will assess the facial features and skin problems, including examining the areas where HArmonyCa will be injected to correct facial problems. Marks or symbols will be made for each injection point on the face, including taking photos of the area of the face to be treated to measure the changes after the injection. - Cleanse and apply anesthesia
The process of using an antibacterial solution to clean the face. If you have previously worn makeup, you must remove all makeup to prevent infection. Then, there is the process of applying anesthesia or using a cold device to help relieve pain that may occur during the injection. - HArmonyCa injection
Once the facial assessment is complete, the injection process will take only a short time. The doctor will massage and assess the examination results at the same time as the injection. - Cleaning
When the doctor is satisfied with the results of the treatment, the marks or symbols made before the injections will be erased and ice may be applied to reduce swelling and ease discomfort to the patient. The skin in the area may be bruised from the needle injection site for 1-2 days, but it will not be too painful. When returning home to recover, ice may be applied to the area and the symptoms should improve within a few hours or in just 2-3 days.
Preparation before receiving HArmonyCa injection program
- Skin preparation: Avoid using any skin care products or medications that may irritate the skin, such as retinol or those containing alpha hydroxy acids, for approximately 3-5 days prior to injection.
- Stopping certain medications or vitamins: You should stop taking medications that make it harder for your blood to clot, such as NSAIDs or medications that affect blood clotting. You should consult your doctor if you may need to stop taking medications temporarily, including vitamins that affect blood clotting, such as vitamin E, fish oil, ginkgo biloba, and ginseng. You should stop taking them at least 7-10 days before receiving treatment.
- Sun avoidance: Avoid direct exposure to strong sunlight or activities that damage the skin before injection.
- Avoid alcohol and cigarettes: at least 24 hours before injection to reduce the risk of bruising and to help with recovery.
Guidelines for post-HArmonyCa injection program
- Avoid steam, sauna, high temperature, and strong sunlight for 24 hours.
- Avoid aspirin or NSAIDs for at least 1 week after the injection. If there is pain, it is recommended to take paracetamol.
- Eat enough protein to be a precursor for collagen production. Recommended 1 g/kg per day.
- Increase vitamin C intake for 2-4 weeks after injection, 2000 mg/day.
- Avoid massage, unlike other biostimulators.
- Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol for about 2 weeks.

Is HArmonyCa injection program dangerous?
The doctor performing the procedure is the most important factor in the injection. Even if the same brand, same model, same FDA approval, but injected by different doctors and with different techniques, the results and safety will be different. What is very important is that the doctor must be an expert, know the correct and appropriate injection technique, and be able to analyze the amount of medicine and the injection site accurately. Because every time the substance is injected, there is a risk of hitting the blood vessels on the face or other unwanted areas. The medical facility must be reliable. The injection must be done only in a medical facility that has standards and is legally permitted to operate. Because if there is an undesirable result, we can fix it immediately.
Where should HArmonyCa injection be injected? What should be considered?
- You must choose a clinic that meets standards and is certified by the Ministry of Public Health.
- Doctors must have experience and expertise in HArmonyCa injection program, which drug placement in which skin layer solves which problem, in order to achieve natural results with minimal swelling and bruising, and avoid any post-injection problems such as lumps or wrong position, etc.
- Use only genuine HArmonyCa injection programs and they should be reasonably priced (which may vary depending on the doctor’s expertise). If the price is too cheap, you can guess that it is probably fake or substandard.
- The clinic must follow up after every injection.
