Structura is a hyaluronic acid injectable formulated with 90mg/2ml and developed using IBSA’s NAHYCO® hybrid technology. It is intended for use in the superficial fat layer just beneath the skin.
This targeted approach aims to address age-related facial changes by supporting collagen, elastin, and fat cell activity within these areas. Structura is designed to maintain facial support and skin structure over time.
While the original focuses on hydration and elasticity in the dermis, Structura is intended for a deeper layer. It may be considered by individuals who have midface volume loss, early skin laxity, or changes along the jawline.
Structura offers a bio-remodelling approach to facial rejuvenation that works beneath the skin’s surface—targeting the subcutaneous fat layer to support volume and contour restoration. This injectable treatment performs a lipolifting effect, acting within the fat compartments to restore structural support without changing the natural shape or expression of the face.
Structura is injected into specific fat compartments under the skin. This allows for a lipolifting action, helping restore volume and contour by supporting tissue renewal and repositioning.
Rather than simply adding volume, it promotes the activity of collagen, elastin, and adipocytes (fat cells), supporting long-term skin structure and resilience.
Patients can expect firmer, more elastic skin over treated areas, while maintaining natural facial expressions—no exaggerated fullness.
The gel acts as a supportive matrix within the fat layer, helping to reposition and lift sagging areas such as the cheeks and jawline.
Using a blunt cannula, treatment typically requires just two entry points—reducing the risk of bruising and allowing for a quicker recovery.
Structura is thermally stabilised and contains no chemical cross-linkers, which reduces the potential for certain side effects sometimes associated with conventional fillers.
Structura is designed for individuals experiencing age-related structural changes in the face. It targets areas affected by fat loss and skin-thinning factors, often responsible for facial sagging and loss of definition. This treatment may be suitable for those looking to address:
Structura focuses on the mid to lower face, where facial volume tends to diminish over time. Common treatment areas include:
Structura may be suitable for patients looking to support facial contours without relying on traditional fillers. Candidate profiles include:
Structura may be suitable for patients looking to support facial contours without relying on traditional fillers. Candidate profiles include:
Individuals with slimmer, more angular features may experience hollow cheeks, sunken under-eyes, or general facial volume reduction. Structura is designed to act within the superficial fat layer, where it may help support areas affected by volume loss and contribute to a softer appearance.
Those with fuller faces who are noticing early changes in midface definition or mild heaviness around the jawline may consider Structura. It is intended to support facial tissues in areas where volume descent may be contributing to visible changes.

At Lux Medical Clinic, every Structura treatment is customised to suit your facial structure and ageing concerns. From assessment to aftercare, we ensure a patient-centred approach that prioritises both safety and subtle, natural-looking outcomes.
Your treatment begins with a detailed medical consultation. During this session:
This approach aims to align your treatment with your individual goals while supporting a natural-looking result.
The Structura treatment is performed in-clinic and typically takes around 15 to 20 minutes. The steps include:
Unlike the original, which is injected into fixed dermal Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP) to support skin hydration, Structura is placed deeper, within the fat layer, using a cannula. This technique may reduce the number of injection points and is designed to minimise discomfort, while supporting the intended structural treatment approach.
Some patients may observe changes within 2 to 4 weeks, as the bioremodelling process takes place.
Visible changes, such as enhanced midface structure and improved skin appearance, may become more noticeable around 4 weeks after the second session.
The duration of results can vary based on factors such as individual response, lifestyle, and the ageing process.
To support recovery and ensure the best outcome:
While downtime is minimal, some mild swelling or redness at the entry points may occur and typically resolves within a few hours to a day.
At Lux Medical Clinic, each Structura session is tailored to your facial structure and treatment goals. The procedure is performed by a certified doctor using a cannula technique designed to support targeted product placement and reduce the number of injection points.
Each session includes:

While Injectable Skincare supports skin hydration and surface texture, Structura is designed to act in deeper layers to support the underlying facial structure. Used together, they offer a layered approach to treatment. This supports both the skin and deeper facial layers in a coordinated plan based on your treatment goals.
