What Is saypha RICH?

Croma-Pharma, a family-owned Austrian company founded in 1976, makes hyaluronic acid products. In 2019 it began renaming its Princess® range as saypha®, so saypha® RICH was formerly Princess® RICH.

It contains 18 mg/ml of non-cross-linked HA with glycerol and no lidocaine. Croma describes it as replacing age-related HA loss, improving hydration, tone and elasticity and correcting small lines. It carries the CE mark.

How the Treatment Works at Veneta

Skin assessment

A physician examines your skin and medical history and confirms that a booster, not a filler, fits your goal.

Preparation

The skin is cleansed and disinfected; a numbing cream is optional.

Injection

Small amounts are injected with a fine needle into the superficial dermis.

Aftercare and follow-up

Small bumps or redness settle on their own. Croma’s study gave sessions at the start, week 3 and week 6; maintenance follows.
