How a Dentist Uses a Hyaluronic Acid Pen

A hyaluronic acid pen, also called a hyaluron pen, is a way to administer fillers into the lips (and other facial regions) to create more volume. A hyaluronic pen may be an option to achieve cosmetic goals without the need for needles, which are commonly used in the traditional dermal filler injection process.

It is used for a variety of purposes within skincare, including to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, alleviate dry skin, add volume to the lips, and more.
