Innovyal is an injectable dermobooster: a non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid formula that hydrates the skin and, in its Lightening Action version, also targets pigment with tranexamic acid and niacinamide. At Charisma, doctors use Innovyal on its own or alongside laser and peels to treat melasma, sun spots and dull, dehydrated skin.
Why Choose Charisma for Innovyal Injections
- Pigment-focused assessment — a doctor checks the type and depth of pigmentation before choosing Innovyal or a combination plan.
- The full Innovyal range — the formula is matched to your concern: Lightening Action, Full Face or Eye Contour.
- Injection or microneedling delivery — chosen according to your skin sensitivity and downtime preference.
- Laser and peel protocols in one clinic — PICO, HALO and medical peels are available when Innovyal needs support.
- Free OligoScan assessment — internal factors such as low antioxidants can be checked alongside your skin plan.
What Is Innovyal?
Innovyal is a French brand of hyaluronic acid dermoboosters. The products are injected into the superficial dermis in small droplets. Unlike a filler, Innovyal does not add volume or change the shape of the face. It improves hydration, texture and tone.
Innovyal Range Compared
- Lightening Action — hyaluronic acid with tranexamic acid and niacinamide (vitamin B3), used for melasma, sun spots, post-inflammatory marks and uneven tone.
- Full Face — a hydrating and revitalising booster for dull, dehydrated or tired-looking skin, without a lightening agent.
- Eye Contour — a lighter formula for fine lines, crepey skin and dark circles caused by thin skin under the eyes.
How Innovyal Lightening Action Works
- Hyaluronic acid — binds water in the skin, improving hydration and smoothness.
- Tranexamic acid — reduces melanin production and the signalling that switches pigment cells on after UV and heat exposure.
- Niacinamide — limits the transfer of pigment to surface skin cells and strengthens the skin barrier.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
- Melasma — especially epidermal or mixed melasma, as part of a combined plan.
- Sun spots and tanning — uneven tone from prolonged sun exposure.
- Post-acne marks — brown marks left after breakouts.
- Dull, dehydrated skin — skin affected by air-conditioning, heat and sun.
- Under-eye dullness — fine lines and thin skin, treated with Eye Contour.
Innovyal is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active skin infection, or with a known allergy to any ingredient.
Key Benefits
- Brighter, more even tone — gradual fading of dark spots.
- Deep hydration — plumper, smoother skin texture.
- Natural result — no added volume or change to facial features.
- Low downtime — small bumps settle within a day.
Injection vs Microneedling Delivery
Innovyal can be placed with fine-needle micro-injections across the treatment area, or applied during a microneedling session so the product enters through micro-channels. Injections deliver a more even, deeper dose. Microneedling covers larger areas quickly and adds its own collagen stimulation. Your doctor recommends one method or a mix.
Treatment Procedure
- Consultation and skin analysis — pigment depth, skin type and medical history are reviewed.
- Cleansing and numbing — numbing cream is applied for about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Treatment — micro-injections or microneedling across the face, about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Aftercare — soothing serum and sunscreen are applied before you leave.
How Many Sessions Do You Need?
Most plans include 3 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 3 to 6 months. Pigmentation needs more sessions than hydration alone.
Pre-Treatment Guidelines
- Pause actives — stop retinoids and exfoliating acids 3 to 5 days before.
- Avoid blood thinners — where medically allowed, stop aspirin and fish oil a few days before to reduce bruising.
- No recent tanning — avoid strong sun exposure in the week before treatment.
Aftercare
- No makeup for 12 hours — let the injection points close.
- Daily SPF 50 — sun protection is essential, as UV restarts pigment production.
- Avoid heat for 48 hours — no sauna, steam or intense exercise.
Innovyal vs Other Skin Boosters
Profhilo and Jalupro focus on hydration, firmness and collagen. Innovyal Lightening Action is chosen when pigment is the main concern, because it contains tranexamic acid and niacinamide. Patients with both pigmentation and laxity may combine boosters across a treatment plan.
Innovyal for Melasma: Combined Protocols
- Innovyal with PICO laser — the laser breaks down pigment while Innovyal calms and brightens.
- Innovyal with medical peels — alternating sessions for epidermal pigmentation.
- Innovyal with oral or topical care — prescribed home care to maintain results.
Innovyal Injection in Dubai & Abu Dhabi
Charisma offers Innovyal treatments at its Dubai and Abu Dhabi clinics, delivered by doctors who also manage laser and peel protocols for pigmentation. The UAE climate means most patients need a maintenance plan and strict sun protection to keep results.
Innovyal Price in Dubai
The cost depends on the product (Lightening Action, Full Face or Eye Contour), the number of millilitres used and whether you book a package. Your doctor confirms the exact price after the skin assessment.
