What it is
Electri is a Swiss injectable skin booster from Institute Hyalual GmbH, offered at Klinik Amisi within the skin pillar. It combines high molecular weight hyaluronic acid with succinic acid in a non-crosslinked formula, and is positioned around supporting skin hydration, a fresher overall look and a comfortable first-time experience for patients new to injectable boosters.
A consultation is required before the first session. Our doctor will review your skin condition, medical history and goals before recommending whether Electri is appropriate, and how many sessions to plan.
How it works
Electri is delivered into the upper layers of the skin using fine needles. Once in place, the hyaluronic acid component supports hydration in the dermis. The succinic acid component is positioned in the formulation as an antioxidant support and may help signal collagen and elastin activity in the surrounding skin over time.
The combined outcome across most patients is a gradual improvement in hydration, surface smoothness and the overall look of skin quality, rather than a sudden change in face shape or volume.
What to expect
Before your treatment
Your first visit begins with a consultation. We will discuss your skin concerns, medical history, current skincare, any past injectable treatments and any medications including blood thinners. To reduce the risk of bruising, we may suggest avoiding fish oil, high-dose vitamin E and similar supplements for several days before your session, where it is safe to do so.
During the session
The skin is cleansed and a topical numbing cream is usually applied for around 20 to 30 minutes. The doctor then injects Electri across the planned area using small, controlled placements with fine needles. Sessions typically take 30 to 45 minutes including numbing time. You may feel mild stinging or pressure during the injections.
After your treatment
You may see small bumps at the injection points immediately afterwards — this is expected with most skin boosters and usually settles within 24 to 48 hours. Mild redness, swelling or pinpoint bruising is also possible. Avoid heavy makeup for the rest of the day, and skip strenuous exercise, saunas and very hot showers for 24 hours. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 50+ is part of the long-term plan.
Recovery and downtime
For most patients, downtime is mild. Surface bumps typically soften within a day or two, while any bruising can take a few days longer to fade. Avoid strong actives, exfoliants and facial massage for at least 48 hours, and follow your doctor’s specific aftercare advice. Improvement in skin quality builds gradually over the course of sessions, and individual results vary.
Who is this for
Electri is typically considered by adults who want a comfortable introduction to injectable skin boosters, with a focus on hydration and overall skin quality. It also suits more experienced patients looking for a hydration-led option as part of a long-term plan.
You may be a candidate if you have:
- Dehydrated, tired-looking or dull skin
- An interest in gradually improving skin quality rather than adding volume
- A first-time interest in injectable skin boosters
- Willingness to commit to a course and follow aftercare
- Realistic expectations about gradual, cumulative change
- No active skin infection or contraindicating medical conditions
Considerations and contraindications
Electri is generally not offered to patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, who have active skin infection, open wounds or cold sores in the treatment area, who have a history of severe allergic reactions to any component of the product, or who have certain autoimmune or bleeding conditions that need medical clearance first. Recent dental work, acute illness or planned major events within a few days of the session may also lead our doctor to reschedule. Always disclose your full medical history, medications and supplements during consultation so the right product — or no treatment at all — can be recommended.
