Biorevitalization is one of the most popular and safe cosmetic procedures. It is aimed at restoring the water balance of the skin, the violation of which leads to cell aging. If they are not hydrated enough, they stop producing the “building” proteins collagen and elastin. As a result, fine wrinkles form on the face, its color becomes dull, and it looks tired. Preparations based on hyaluronic acid, a bioactive substance of natural origin, saturate the tissues with moisture, and you look as if you drank the elixir of youth. The skin of the face glows with health again, becomes elastic, smooth and toned. But only if the procedure was carried out correctly and you did not violate the rehabilitation rules.
Local contraindications
Local contraindications include: inflammatory processes or foci of infection at the injection site. If there is a bacterial or viral intradermal infection in the intended treatment area, it is necessary to be completely cured before undergoing the procedure.
If there are individual tumors or their accumulation in the area of the procedure, it is also not recommended to perform injection rejuvenation. Injury from a needle or mesoscooter can cause the spread of the tumor or its degeneration.
If you have herpes
If you have herpes on your lips, injecting hyaluronic acid is prohibited. During an exacerbation of a herpetic infection, the immune system is weakened, and the healing of punctures will be slower. The most important consequences are that the procedure will provoke the appearance of new herpes lesions, injections will lead to deep infection and the development of severe inflammatory processes.
Conversely, herpes often occurs after biorevitalization as a response from the body. Therefore, if you have already encountered herpes after the procedure, start taking antiviral drugs in a prophylactic dosage before the procedure.
General contraindications
Biorevitalization has general contraindications. These include: pregnancy and lactation. If the patient insists on carrying out the procedure, you can ask her to bring a report from the observing obstetrician-gynecologist with a note indicating consent to biorevitalization of the patient. It is difficult to assume the consequences of the injections on the fetus, since there are no studies on this matter. It is accepted among specialists that during pregnancy only those procedures are carried out that are necessary for the normal development of the child, and the risk from the use of which does not exceed the risk to the development of the fetus and the health of its mother. Biorevitalization, which refers to care procedures, is not considered absolutely necessary during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
An absolute contraindication to biorevitalization are diseases of an oncological nature. This is due to the general stimulating effect of hyaluronic acid preparations on the body. “Youth injections” can trigger the growth of cancer cells.
For the same reason, biorevitalization is not performed if the patient suffers from any autoimmune disease. Under the influence of anti-aging hyaluronic acid, stimulation of the growth of normal cells can have an activating effect on cells that the body perceives as foreign and seeks to get rid of them.
Patients with a history of a tendency to form hypertrophic scars are advised not to undergo the procedure. Injections can lead to the formation of scars that grow ugly on the skin. Treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars is complex, lengthy and expensive without a guarantee of results.
A rare contraindication is an allergic reaction to hyaluronic acid. This is due to the individual characteristics of the patient, despite the natural origin of the filler. Sometimes intolerance to hyaluronic acid is associated with additional substances included in the injection drug, so the doctor must check with the patient about the presence of a rejection reaction to the constituent parts of the drug.
Any blood diseases are considered as contraindications to all injection procedures, including biorevitalization. Negative consequences due to the facts of the presence of blood diseases hidden from the doctor become the responsibility of the patient. In addition, the presence of such contraindications can be fraught with complications that threaten the health and life of the patient.
Biorevitalization of facial skin
When deciding to restore youthful skin, you need to contact a specialized center, where a cosmetologist (biorevitalization , mesotherapy and other procedures) will conduct an external examination of the skin and prescribe the required number of procedures. The effectiveness of the procedure depends on many factors: the age of the patient, existing skin problems, the drug used, as well as individual characteristics. When injecting hyaluronic acid on the face, you can achieve the following:
- restore facial skin after plastic surgery;
- eliminate muscle spasms;
- get rid of double chin, jowls and sagging cheeks;
- correct the oval of the face;
- get rid of post-acne, scars and scars;
- acne treatment;
- treatment of rosacea;
- reduction of enlarged pores;
- eliminating bags, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes;
- face lift, general skin rejuvenation;
- normalization of metabolic processes;
- restoration of the epidermis;
- improvement of complexion;
- restoration of turgor;
- return of elasticity and firmness;
- deep hydration of the dermis.
Biorevitalization is an effective and safe way to rejuvenate the skin, but it is worth considering that the result does not always appear after the first session; it takes time for hyaluronic acid to affect cell regeneration; this process takes about 4 days on average. For a lasting effect, several procedures may be needed, the number of which is prescribed individually by a cosmetologist.
Contraindications to injection biorevitalization
Biorevitalization is carried out in two ways - injection and non-invasive laser. There are special contraindications for injection biorevitalization in addition to those listed in the general list.
Certain contraindications to biorevitalization using injections are some psychological diseases. The patient's fear of injections is also considered as a limitation to the procedure.
If the patient has recently undergone cosmetic peeling or any other procedure that injures the skin, rejuvenation using the injection method may be denied. Complete restoration of the skin after similar procedures is necessary before biorevitalization is prescribed.
The presence of some of the listed contraindications is not absolute and can be reviewed at the discretion of the doctor. It is important that the patient does not hide contraindications from the doctor in order to avoid the development of complications.
After facial cleansing
Biorevitalization is recommended to be done after facial cleansing. Then the skin, especially if it is oily, will be well prepared for the upcoming manipulation, and the result will be much better. Cleaning should be done a week (7-10 days) before injection procedures. Under no circumstances should you do a chemical peel, or you will have to wait several days until the skin peels off and is completely restored. It is preferable to use gommage and other gentle cleaning methods.
Restrictions after the procedure
Biorevitalization has contraindications even after the procedure. This is a series of restrictions, the observance of which guarantees a long-term positive effect from “beauty injections”.
The most difficult thing for patients to remember is the prohibition against touching their face with their hands. A lot of bacteria on the hands, which come into contact with a variety of and not always clean surfaces, migrate to the face with open wounds from fresh injections. This is exactly how one of the terrible complications after “beauty injections” develops – tissue infection.
A contraindication after biorevitalization is the application of cosmetics that have not been approved by a doctor. Typically, a specialist prescribes care products or ointments to quickly heal wounds, which the patient must use. However, the desire to “beautify” often overpowers the voice of reason in patients, and they use decorative cosmetics, applying them with not very clean hands or with improvised means. Thus, bacteria from cosmetic brushes or sponges “migrate” to the skin, infecting it through injection marks. Such secondary infections can completely negate the result of the procedure, or even cause a serious complication in the form of skin inflammation.
Carrying out a massage is also a contraindication after biorevitalization, since it interferes with the healing of wounds from injections and threatens infection. The massage performed after the procedure does not allow hyaluronic acid to complete its action in the tissues, so the effect of the injections may be short or unexpressed.
If small swelling or swelling occurs in the injection area, you must use only the products prescribed by your doctor and do not touch these areas with your hands. If swelling does not go away within three to four days, you should immediately consult a doctor, since such a reaction may indicate an infection and/or an inflammatory process.
Is it possible to carry out the biorevitalization procedure in summer?
Every girl or woman who decides to undergo biorevitalization wonders whether it is possible to carry out the procedure in the summer? The sun's rays tend to penetrate deeply into the layers of the dermis, heating it, which provokes increased metabolic processes and evaporation of moisture. Therefore, it is during this period that more thorough moisturizing care is required. The activity of ultraviolet rays prohibits the use of many cosmetic procedures, which does not apply to biorevitalization, since its main effect is moisturizing the deep layers of the skin.
Experts say that injections of hyaluronic acid in the summer are simply necessary for the skin, since the procedure makes the dermis denser due to the synthesis of elastin and collagen, which provides protection from the negative effects of the sun. Hyaluronic acid also binds moisture molecules, keeping the skin hydrated for a long time, which significantly slows down the aging process.
Biorevitalization in the summer is indicated for women with increased oily skin, since the procedure allows you to normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands, reduce enlarged pores, prevent their clogging, and also eliminate acne and post-acne. Therefore, we can conclude that the procedure is ideal for carrying out during the hot season.
Experts advise before going on vacation to undergo a course of hyaluronic acid injections of 3-4 sessions, with an interval of one week. This will improve the appearance of the skin: firmness and elasticity will increase, and the complexion will become even. The procedure will also protect the skin from sunburn, photoaging, tightness and dryness.
Do not forget about care after vacation; injections of hyaluronic acid are perfect for recovery after the negative effects of wind, sun and salt water on the epidermis
How to avoid complications
Recommendations on how to avoid the development of complications are generally quite simple and standard. First of all, you need to be especially careful in choosing a high-quality clinic and doctor with positive recommendations. The best adviser is word of mouth and the positive impressions of girlfriends, friends and acquaintances.
The second important component of a successful facial procedure is a thorough history taking. Patients sometimes hide contraindications for biorevitalization and the truth about their health from the doctor. The result is the development of complications after the procedure.
The third step to the wow effect from “beauty injections” is strict adherence to restrictions after the procedure. Correct behavior and careful handling of your “new” face or body after injection rejuvenation is the key to a beautiful and long-lasting result.
Skin biorevitalization
Hyaluronic acid helps not only eliminate blemishes on the face, but also on other parts of the body. The following correction zones are indicated for biorevitalization:
- hands;
- décolleté area;
- neck;
- knees and elbows;
- intimate area;
- surface of the thighs.
Skin biorevitalization can be performed using several methods: injection and non-injection.
Injection method
To carry out the procedure, a syringe with a thin needle is used, with which hyaluronic acid is injected into the problem area of the skin. In a cosmetology center, the injection method can be performed:
- Using a device that has several attachments, which allows you to control the depth of drug administration.
- Manually: the injection is carried out directly by a cosmetologist using a syringe.
Each technique for administering the drug has its own disadvantages and advantages, for example, when choosing a manual method, errors may be made in the distance between punctures, which the device copes with very well, but unlike manual administration it is more aggressive.
Non-injection method
This method consists of non-injection introduction into the layers of the dermis of a composition containing hyaluronic acid. For this, hyaluronic acid with small molecularity is used, the molecular sizes are so small that they are able to penetrate into the deepest layers of the dermis without the use of injections - this method is suitable for those who are afraid of injections.
Non-injection biorevitalization can be performed using the following methods:
- Aquaphoresis - the procedure is performed simultaneously with lymphatic drainage, electrical stimulation and laser therapy.
- Ultraphonophoresis - during the procedure, ultrasonic vibrations are applied to the skin, which enhance the penetration of hyaluronic acid into the layers of the dermis.
- Oxygen mesotherapy - this type of biorevitalization allows you to saturate the skin with oxygen, which is supplied under strong pressure. This method allows you to enhance the effect of the drug due to its binding with oxygen.
- Magnetophoresis – transportation of hyaluronic acid is carried out using magnetic waves without the use of injections.
- Iontophoresis - has a tonic effect on the skin, allows you to get rid of vascular mesh and improve metabolic processes. Transport of substances occurs using galvanic current.
- Laser – the procedure improves microcirculation, promotes the accumulation of nutrients, and improves the appearance of the skin. Hyaluronic acid penetrates into the deep layers of the dermis using an infrared laser.
- Cryobiorevitalization - penetration of active substances into the deep layers of the dermis occurs through the influence of electric waves and liquid nitrogen.
Non-injection skin biorevitalization allows the patient to avoid discomfort during the procedure.
Biorevitalization. My experience. Detailed review with photos, answers to all questions
“From the very moment a person is born, his biological clock is started”...
Not a short
history of my experience of biorevitalization
on the face, hands, neck and décolleté
.
I notify impressionable pregnant women and children in advance about the content of unpleasant photographs in the material immediately after the procedure, which may cause unwanted emotions.
About my skin:
I am 32 years old, normal skin type, with age it will tend towards dryness. Genetics are good, but long periods of lack of sleep, unhealthy diet and prolonged smoking take their toll.
How I came up with the idea of procedures:
After 29 years, I began to notice dry hands and the first wrinkles. On the face, nasolabial folds and bruises under the eyes immediately caught the eye, giving a tired and gloomy look.
It was decided to do something about it. What's the point of delaying further?.. I understood that serums, masks and creams did not help as much as before, although the skin was quite moisturized and nourished
Due to the lack of detailed information with photographs after the procedure, I could not decide on biorevetalization; I was afraid and misunderstood about how long I would not be able to leave the house.
Although I had heard good reviews about the procedure, fear and emptiness in understanding prevailed. One day I decided to get fillers
in the area of the nasolabial folds. It was a year and a half ago and it was spontaneous. It cost, as I remember now, 18 thousand rubles, it was done in a good clinic on Chistye Prudy (Moscow), it was not as painful as it was unpleasant, but tolerable, the result was immediate and I liked it. Although there are some disadvantages.
But now I understand that if I had done the biorevitalization procedure first, I would not have had to put fillers, because the skin after injections of hyaluronic acid was perfectly tightened and now, when the fillers have been absorbed for six months, there are practically no nasolabial folds and all this is thanks to effect of hyaluronic acid injections.
What's the result:
I will say right away, at the beginning of the post, that I am very pleased that I decided to take this course of procedures.
, 2021,
I performed my first procedure, “pinned”
my face and neck
with a course of
three procedures
with
Juvederm Hydrate
, and
my arms and décolleté
with a course of
two procedures
with
Skin R.
Let me clarify that my hands reacted instantly and after the first procedure there was a noticeable effect; I did the décolleté area prophylactically because I love necklines and want to prolong the youth of this area. The vessels on the wings of the nose became invisible.
Effect:
I noticed the best result from the procedures
a few months
, and it is still visible. The skin became smooth, even, moisturized, fresher, tighter and the overall appearance became sleek, this is especially noticeable with makeup.
Photo two months after the course
But!Biorevitalization is not a procedure where you will see noticeable changes in the “before and after” photographs.
The transformation comes gradually, I started to notice it tactilely when applying the day cream, but it’s not the same “wow” effect as after a filler, don’t expect quick results.
Photo four months later
, foundation applied
These injection courses
did not have any effect the area under the eyes
, the bruises remained almost the same as they were, but the nasolacrimal groove more or less leveled out.
The side wrinkles at the base of my neck
have not completely gone away ; they are wide and are in an unusual place, because I sleep without a pillow.
Also, my crow's feet
, which are only noticeable when I smile, have not completely gone away.
All these “shortcomings” can easily be removed with other drugs ( fillers under the eyes, Botox on the “paws”, a couple more targeted courses on the neck
), but I’ve taken a break for now, because I’m now approaching the point of contraindications. But I understood the main thing for myself - first the biorevetalization course and only then what she couldn’t cope with. I will definitely continue to do this procedure in the future.
I hope my post will be useful to many, let's get started
What is biorevitalization?
These are micro-injections with special preparations created on the basis of hyaluronic acid, the concentration of which is as close as possible to the natural one for the body (it is found in the umbilical cord, cartilage, eye cornea, saliva, bones, human joints. It can also be found in the skin of a shark, the comb of a rooster, eyes and cartilage of cattle, bacterial cells) for faster absorption by the skin.
Due to this, the water balance is restored, thereby creating ideal conditions for the functioning of cells. This procedure can significantly improve not only the condition of the skin of the face, but also any part of the body. For example, the décolleté, forearm, neck, arms and even thighs. After the procedure, the skin acquires elasticity, healthy color and firmness.
Appearing in 2001, this technique made a kind of revolution in the field of aesthetic medicine; to date, many drugs for biorevitalization have appeared, with different properties and composition.
This cosmetic procedure does not eliminate wrinkles. It is more likely to restore the skin to its former elasticity, firmness and color characteristic of young skin. This procedure improves the appearance of the skin and also slows down aging. It's more of a prevention
and prolongation of youth than “heavy artillery” with age-related changes. This means that it is necessary to start it as soon as the first aging processes are noticed.
At what age should I start?
The facial biorevitalization procedure can be done by anyone starting from 25-30 years old; it is at this age that the first signs of aging begin to appear on the skin. The procedure is especially indicated for people over 35 years of age, when age-related changes begin to develop in the form of skin dehydration and increased dryness, color changes and the appearance of photoaging, decreased elasticity and turgor. If you want to keep your skin as young as possible, this is one of the best preventative methods to prevent skin aging, because... This procedure can help the skin preserve and maintain its own regeneration processes, and, therefore, stay young longer. To prevent rapid aging, it can also be used at a younger age (23-25 years), especially if there are indications (decreased skin tone, thin dry or dehydrated skin, first wrinkles, scar changes, age spots on the skin, etc. .).
Indications for the procedure:
— Dry or dehydrated skin — Reduced firmness and elasticity — Pigmentation — Restoring the condition of the skin after various plastic surgeries, peelings or damage from UV rays (long exposure to the sun or in a solarium) — The need to moisturize the skin, smooth out the skin texture in general and wrinkles — Prevention of premature skin aging - Age-related changes - Correction of fine wrinkles - Dull complexion; — Sagging skin in the face, neck and décolleté area
Contraindications:
I tried to take into account as much as possible all situations when the procedure should be postponed, or not even think about it - Pregnancy and breastfeeding - Any disease during an exacerbation, incl.
allergic reaction to something - Inflammatory (infectious) process in the injection area This is due to the fact that intradermal injection into the site of infection can further spread the infection throughout the body
- Increased body temperature - It is not advisable to carry out biorevitalization during menstruation - Colds.
— Malignant neoplasms. — If you have skin diseases (acne, herpes), you should first consult with a dermatologist — Intolerance to hyaluronic acid, or individual intolerance to the component of the drug — Autoimmune diseases and a number of complex diseases (oncology, diabetes) — If the skin is prone to scarring — Presence of neoplasms on the face – moles, pigmented nevi, etc. Although biorevitalization is not prohibited near them, it is prohibited to administer the drug under the skin through them.
Why is it worth subjecting not only the face to the biorevitalization procedure?
Hands
give away age - this is one of the first places where signs of aging appear. The skin of your hands becomes wrinkled faster than the skin of your face. Wrinkles, folds, hyperpigmentation spots, protruding veins and tendons are small, insidious “sneaks” that reveal our age.
Neck and décolleté
— 70% of women after 35 years note age-related changes in these areas. High pillows, stooping and poor posture, excess weight, bad habits (especially smoking), excessive tanning, stress, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, lack of care or improper care are the main enemies of these areas. Clinically, skin aging in these areas manifests itself in the form of loss of firmness and elasticity, worsening physiological skin folds, the presence of wrinkles and age spots.
When can I expect results from the procedure?
This procedure has a
“fast” and “slow” effect
. Almost immediately after the procedure, small wrinkles and folds are smoothed out, and after 8-15 days a “slow” result is achieved when the cells begin to produce their own hyaluronic acid.
You can also get a cumulative effect. Three or four injections of hyaluronic acid subcutaneously can trigger the necessary mechanisms in the body, and your skin can look better and better every day, even six months after the full course of procedures. It is at this moment that the skin begins to “restore” every day and look younger.
How long does the effect last?
The effect of biorevitalization lasts
from 6 months to a year
, depending on lifestyle and compliance with skin care rules, as well as genetics.
The procedure for carrying out the biorevitalization procedure
1. Consultation
Everyone has their own individual characteristics, some have a tendency to form bruises and hematomas.
In some people they can appear very quickly and last a long time. An experienced cosmetologist begins the session by collecting an anamnesis
(possible complications and contraindications must be stated) and conducting a consultation, discussing the areas of desired treatment, expected and probable results, and also selecting a drug. If you have doubts about the qualifications of the specialist performing the procedure, it is better to refuse it. To carry out biorevitalization, you should contact medical centers with a good reputation, and, if possible, communicate with patients.
2. Makeup remover
Needless to say, it is better to come to the procedure without using decorative cosmetics
3. Pain relief
Due to the fact that hyaluronic acid is a viscous and thick substance, unpleasant sensations may arise both from injections and when the substance is administered, so an anesthetic cream is generously applied to the injection area (usually
Emla, in my case the Korean PainStop Cream, the cosmetologist worked exactly On him
)
Cover the face with cling film on top of the cream for 20 minutes for the best effect.
You will feel a slight numbness, tingling, or cooling sensation on your skin
4. Drug discovery
The cosmetologist opens the package with the drug only in the presence of the client, immediately before the session, demonstrating that the drug has not been opened before and has a good shelf life. The package contains a disposable syringe filled with the drug, ready for injection.
In some clinics, it is mandatory to examine the packaging and give the patient a sticker with the number and series of the drug administered, so that he is sure that the product is original and has the opportunity to see the quality certificate.
5. Disinfection and injections themselves
The cosmetologist wipes the injection areas with an antiseptic (
usually chlorhexidine
) and, using a very thin needle, begins intradermal administration of the drug
The injections themselves take approximately 20-40 minutes.
We will have to be patient, because... This is quite painful and painkillers do not completely remove the sensitivity.
6. Completion of the procedure
At the end of the session, the injection sites are again treated with an antiseptic and drugs with an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effect are applied (
usually Bepanten Plus cream
).
How much drug is needed?
Typically, 1 syringe is required for the face and lower chin. Another one for the neck and décolleté.
What happens immediately after the procedure?
It was precisely because of the lack of information on this question that I delayed starting the procedure for a long time. I will try to explain as clearly as possible what awaits you and whether you will be able to attend work and study.
Immediately after the procedure, small swellings ( papules)
bruises
and pain may form at the injection site Itching and dryness of the skin in the injection area may occur, as well as paleness or redness of the skin.
When taking blood thinners such as Acetylsalicylic acid (even a couple of days before the procedure), bruising or minor bleeding
. This is a normal reaction, there is no need to be alarmed. All of the above in the face area lasts up to two days, and in the décolleté and neck area up to three; the next day only red dots remain on the hands.
If papules and swelling in the facial area persist much longer, you should consult a doctor who performed biorevitalization.
As I already mentioned, it is advisable to stop using antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and painkillers, as well as alcohol, a few days before the procedure.
On the eve of visiting the cosmetologist, I completely forgot about these recommendations and took aspirin for a headache. As a result, the procedure was more painful and bleeding, the redness took a very long time to go away, I spent five days
I didn’t leave the house because the papules and red dots simply couldn’t be covered up, all this time I was scared myself and scared my family with my appearance.
COURSE 1.
One and a half hours after the procedure
13 hours later
Troxevasin
under the eyes and
Bepanten
to the inflammation zone
On the sixth day, I was able to calmly leave the house after doing my makeup.
The second time I was already more vigilant and the papules and redness completely left me on the third day.
COURSE 2.
After 2 hours:
After 12 hours:
with makeup:
In the photo you can see papules and red dots on the chin, but the skin is almost ideal, without inflammation or bruising.
The third time everything went away even faster, as it seemed to me, and all the sensations were already familiar and did not frighten me.
COURSE 3.
After 15 hours,
foundation and powder are applied
Second day
got into a vessel near the eye
The third day:
with makeup
In some patients, the face is not very “distorted” after injections and girls calmly go shopping right from the cosmetologist’s table, I’m not one of those))
What should not be done after the biorevitalization procedure?
It must be remembered that, despite the small size of the needle, the protection of the skin is compromised and there is a possibility of infection.
It takes at least a day for microtrauma to heal.
During the first days after the procedure, it is advisable to use drugs with an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effect, which are prescribed by the doctor himself ( usually Troxevasin ointment under the eyes and Bepanten Plus cream for the entire injection area
).
In order to avoid negative consequences after the procedure, it is necessary to follow the doctor’s recommendations, namely:
- in the first hours after the procedure, you cannot tilt your head down and use facial expressions - already in the first day you can wash your face with warm boiled water, with the doctor’s permission you can use a neutral cleanser - do not use decorative cosmetics for at least a day, especially new untested ones - rub the skin hands, do a massage - on the first day after the procedure, you should not drink alcoholic beverages or large amounts of salt, this can cause swelling - expose the skin to thermal procedures, or be in the cold - do not visit the pool, open reservoirs, bathhouse, sauna, solarium, gym, etc. at least a week - chemical or laser peelings or other cosmetic procedures cannot be performed during the week; — within two weeks, inject injection implants, Botox, and perform plastic surgery.
Biorivetalization course - how often and how many injections should I give?
It is advisable to carry out biorevitalization once every six months to a year in a course of 2-5 procedures, depending on the condition of the skin and the drug. The break between sessions is 15-30 days. This is necessary to ensure a stable and prolonged effect.
In order to achieve the required visible effect, it will take two to three months after the course of procedures, and the effect lasts for one and a half years, without disturbing the natural processes in the body.
When combining biorevitalization with Botox injections, it must be done in advance (at least two weeks in advance) in order not to reduce the effect of botulinum toxin injection.
During the first procedure, you are given instructions for the drug, which contains information about injections with dates.
I did the second procedure 20 days
, as expected, these were the final procedures on the hands and décolleté.
For the third procedure for the face and neck, I came to the cosmetologist a month and a half
later due to vacation and subsequent women’s days, on which, let me remind you, it is necessary to skip the procedure, and my third visit was already considered “maintenance” due to the long break. Keep this in mind.
What is the difference between mesotherapy and biorevitalization?
Number of procedures and composition of cocktails. With biorivetalization there are fewer procedures, and the effect occurs in a shorter time and is longer lasting.
What medications are there?
The names of biorevitalization products are usually associated with the name of the manufacturing company and less often with the type of the main component.
The choice of a product for the biorevitalization procedure and its technique depends on the following factors: - Age and condition of the skin - Type of skin and type of defects - Type of skin aging - Immune state of the body and a history of allergic reactions - Area and area of the zone (face, neck, area neckline, hands) - Combinations with other methods used in the program for correcting age-related changes (laser rejuvenation, peeling, etc.)
There are many preparations for biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid. Only a cosmetologist decides which one to choose, based on your age and skin condition.
Some of the most common and effective drugs are the following:
1.
Ial-System and Ial-System ACP
2.
Juvederm Hydrate
3.
Skin-B and R
4.
Restylane Vital and Restylane Vital Light
5.
Meso-Wharton P199
6.
Teosyal MesoExpert and Teosyal MesoExpert Pure Sense Redensity
I’ll tell you briefly about each of them:
IAL System and IAL System ACP
The drug is produced in Italy. These drugs are distinguished by their safety of use and the absence of side effects. These preparations use natural, chemically unmodified 2% hyaluronic acid. In the IAL System it is unstabilized, but in the IAL System ACP it is stabilized (has a longer lasting effect).
The drug is supplied ready-made, it is in a syringe, so it does not require dilution. After a full course of procedures, the result lasts for 4-6 months. Suitable for rejuvenating any skin type in girls aged 25 years and older.
Juvederm HYDRATE
This is a cosmetic product of American origin.Among the positive properties include moisturizing the skin and increasing its tone. The molecular weight of hyaluronic acid molecules, which is part of the drug, is 2500 kDa. The drug is also unique in that in addition to hyaluronic acid, it contains a very powerful antioxidant - mannitol. It protects the skin from free radicals. protects compounds from rapid breakdown, and hyaluronic acid molecules break down at a lower rate, which increases the duration of the drug by almost 3 times.
Thus, the effect of the procedure is long-lasting, and the next injection is recommended no earlier than a year later. For women 25-35 years old, this procedure will be the only one, and for older women it will be an additional component.
Skin preparations
Produced by the world famous Italian company Skin B is indicated for young skin (from 25 years old) Skin r is recommended for mature skin (from 30 years old)
Biological revitalization with Skin B
intended for patients aged 20-35 years. Target areas include reduction of bags under the eyes, shallow wrinkles on the forehead, around the lips and eyes. Skin B also contains substances such as leucine, glycine and isoleucine. They are necessary for the synthesis of new cells and rapid cell repair.
Skin R
- a drug containing 2% hyaluronic acid, as well as lysine and glycine.
The drug stings a lot
, no Emla helps, but it’s worth being patient. The result is comparable to surgical skin tightening. The effect is visible after the first procedure, because... creates a strong lifting and restorative effect on the skin. This unique property makes the skin tightened and elastic. Skin R provides a firming, fast lifting effect on the arms, thighs, décolleté, abdomen and neck. The course of biorevitalization with Skin R includes 4 procedures, which are carried out with a break of 14 days. The result of this rejuvenation lasts approximately 12 months. Maintenance procedures are recommended to be performed once a month.
Restylane Vital
Produced by a Swedish cosmetics company. Consists of stabilized hyaluronic acid. This drug is suitable for women over 40 years old, as well as for girls with signs of photoaging. If you combine the use of this drug with the introduction of Botox or contouring, the effect will be especially noticeable.
In addition to the classic Restylane Vital, there is also a lighter version - RestylaneVital Light. This product is designed and intended specifically for young skin. Its main objectives include: — prevention of the first signs of aging; — restoration of water balance; - improvement of complexion. The use of this type of drug is also justified when working with delicate skin, in the neck and chest area.
Meso-Wharton P199
American drug Composition: 1.56% hyaluronic acid, vitamins, amino acids, microelements, in order to prolong the effect of biorevitalization. The product contains vitamins A, B, C, E, K, amino acids, microelements and other substances that have a complex effect on the skin: tightening, increasing its elasticity and eliminating wrinkles. A drug used for anti-aging procedures after 40 years. It is a unique product in the field of cosmetology due to its ability to increase the number of stem cells in the skin. In addition, Meso-Wharton P199 stimulates the restoration of sections of DNA molecules damaged as a result of physical or chemical effects (this process is called repair).
Teosyal-Meso
Teosyal-Meso is a Swiss preparation for biorevitalization, consisting of hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin. This product does not contain any additives, so it can be used to rejuvenate skin prone to allergic reactions. A product with a mild and delicate effect, designed primarily for thin, dehydrated skin that has lost its elasticity.

Prices:
The drugs are slightly different and a lot depends on the clinic and the level of the cosmetologist. The first two courses (hands, neck, décolleté, face) cost me 14,000 rubles. each, third course (neck, face) 8,000 rubles.
Conclusion:
Do not waste time naively believing that any procedures should be started no earlier than the age of forty.
Then it may simply be too late... As they say, “prevention is easier than cure
,” so prevention is important, but timely. Take care of your skin, take care of it and it will certainly thank you.
My most recent photo with makeup, six months after the biorevitalization course:
I collected a huge amount of information, both by asking my cosmetologist and using dozens of cosmetology websites with articles to tell in detail what is what.
Also, the cosmetologist forcibly took away the used syringe to show you the size of the needle (a photo on a mobile phone would have been of lower quality).
I hope I was able to answer all your questions regarding this procedure, dispel doubts and fears, and there are no “dark” corners left in your mind.
I look forward to your comments with stories about your experiences or remaining questions.
Pamper yourself and believe in your dreams! Yours, doch_montesumy

What you need to know about drugs
Hyaluronic acid in its natural form (unstabilized) remains in cells for 24–48 hours. If it is given a gel-like consistency, the acid will accumulate under the skin, and the life of the molecules will be significantly extended. Chemically stabilized hyaluron is destroyed more slowly, so the result of biorevitalization lasts longer.
There is also the concept of low molecular weight and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. In the first case, it effectively stimulates the work of fibroblasts, which, as already mentioned, activate the synthesis of collagen and elastin. But since the latter have a short chain of molecules, they are unable to retain moisture in the cells in sufficient quantities. In the second case, on the contrary, hyaluron binds water molecules, providing good hydration and increasing skin elasticity.
There are also differences in the composition of the drugs:
- Monocomponent preparations (IAL-system, Juvederm Hydrate, Restylane Vital) are used for the age category of women 30–35 years old. Used to combat fine wrinkles and dry skin as a preventative against aging.
- Combined cocktails with hyaluron (Revofil Aquashine, Aquashine BTX) additionally contain minerals, vitamins, amino acids, coenzymes, and peptides with different properties. Biorevitalization of the face with these drugs is most effective when used as a course in women aged 35–45 years. The products can smooth out facial wrinkles, eliminate pigmentation, and fight skin photoaging and moderate age-related changes.
- Powerful biorevitalizants for aging skin (Meso-Wharton P199, Hyalrepair-02, NucleoSpire DNA-RNA). Nucleotides and growth factors are added to the above components. Such drugs can be used in women 35+ on an irregular basis, and at the age of 40–45 years - at each session. They give a visible effect and can solve most problems of mature skin: restore elasticity, remove wrinkles, lighten age spots, etc.
There are many companies producing drugs based on hyaluronic acid. The specialist selects the means for biorevitalization individually.
Biorevitalization – cost of the procedure
If biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid was chosen for skin rejuvenation, the price of which depends on the chosen method, treatment area and drug, first of all, you must undergo a preliminary consultation with a cosmetologist. The total cost depends on the number of sessions prescribed; depending on the condition of the skin, from 3 to 10 procedures may be required . The cost of the entire course can vary from 5,000 to 25,000 rubles.
- around the eyes - from 2000 rubles;
- décolleté area, neck and face – from RUB 8,000;
- facial fat – from 11,700 rubles;
- neck and face correction – 18,000 rub.
When carrying out biorevitalization of the face, the cost for the entire course may depend on the chosen drug and ranges from 6200 rubles. To find out the exact cost of the procedure, you need to consult a cosmetologist.
Main types of procedures
Cosmetologists offer two options for biorevetalization:
- Introduction of hyaluronate into the subcutaneous layers through small, numerous injections. Hardware or manual chipping method. This method involves two to three days of restoration of the epidermis. Allows you to achieve a quick rejuvenation effect, but there may be side effects;
- Biorevitalization of the face without mechanical impact. Hyaluronic acid is delivered to the dermis under the influence of a special device. The method is completely non-traumatic, so no recovery time is needed. Efficiency is lower than that of injections.
In turn, there are several types of non-injection method:
- Laserpheresis – using a laser beam;
- Magnetophoresis - using the influence of magnetic waves;
- Ultraphonophoresis – using ultrasound;
- Cryobiorevitalization – liquid nitrogen and electric current are used;
- OXY therapy – with the help of oxygen, the active substance is introduced;
- Iontophoresis is the use of galvanic current.
