Procedure techniques:
Modern cosmetology includes dozens of different drugs that are used to nourish and moisturize the skin. Techniques for introducing drugs into the skin also do not stand still. To choose one or another method for yourself, you need to understand all these intricacies.
For example, our cosmetologists can perform this procedure using several techniques; let us briefly note their pros and cons:
Classic papular biorevitalization
advantages - the ability to work on any area, including the area around the eyes; a wide selection of drugs, both in price and in effect.
cons - after the procedure, papules remain, you can’t go on a date.
Biorevitalization (bioreparation) with cannula
pros - the drug is administered by cannula through one puncture on the cheek, there are no traces after the procedure. cons - you cannot work on the area around the eyes and forehead.
Biorevitalization at 10 bioactive points of the face (Profhilo)
Pros: only 5 mini injections, long-term effect and good results.
disadvantages - you cannot work out the area around the eyes in detail.
Biorevitalization with a needle using linear-retrograde technique
advantages - the ability to work on any area, including the area around the eyes; a wide selection of drugs, both in price and in effect.
disadvantages - without papules, but with traces of injections and possible contouring of the drug in the first hours and days.
The most important thing: any biorevitalization is a COURSE PROCEDURE! After 1-2 procedures, if there is any result, it will only last for a few weeks.
So entrust the choice of drug and equipment to professionals. Our administrators need to hear from you which area is bothering you and when was the last time you had the procedure done.
Linear
It is carried out in those areas where it is necessary to create a frame or additional support for aging skin.
This is the smoothing of folds, long wrinkles in the cheek area and forehead. Linear technology includes the following types:
- “Grid” – the drug is administered in perpendicular lines;
- “Drip” or short-line technique, multiple injections are made along the line of the corrected area;
- “Fan” - injections occur in lines that extend from one point.
The procedure is carried out painlessly thanks to the use of local anesthesia at the injection sites.

Duration of the session and the whole course
The duration of the session depends on the area of treatment, but in general it takes approximately 40-60 minutes. The biorevitalization course itself and the timing of its repetition will be determined individually, since it depends on the skin care products used, lifestyle, etc. There are several main courses:
- Preventive course: no more than three sessions and maintenance procedures performed occasionally;
- Restorative course: 4-6 main sessions and frequent maintenance sessions;
- Quick recovery course: two sessions, carried out two weeks later.
There is also a course that protects from the sun: the session is carried out before receiving ultraviolet radiation (at least a week before) and after.
How to care for your skin after
There is practically no recovery period after injections, however, after completing the session, you should still adhere to some rules:
- Wash only with water and mild cleansers that do not contain hard abrasive elements;
- If necessary, apply antiseptics prescribed by a cosmetologist to the face;
- Use post-procedure restorative agents (Cicaplast, Sicalfat, Traumeel s).
Cosmetologists also recommend drinking water in large quantities (at least 2 liters per day) for the first 3-4 days.
There are also some prohibitions that help prolong the effect:
- Do not touch your face or apply cosmetics on the first day after the injection;
- It is prohibited to go to baths, swimming pools, solariums and saunas for 2 weeks;
- Sports activities are prohibited in the first three days after the session.
You should avoid drinking alcoholic beverages for at least a week after the procedure.
Why is a combined effect needed?
The essence of biorevitalization is to eliminate the deficiency of hyaluronic acid in the skin. The older a person is, the more this deficiency is felt, and the more negative consequences it has. Hyaluronate injections help slow down the aging process, which means prolonging youth. Hyaluronic acid also promotes rapid wound healing and has anti-inflammatory, antitoxic, antimicrobial, and immunomodulating effects.
The benefits of hyaluronic acid for the skin are obvious and undeniable, but attempts to make biorevitalizants even more effective by increasing the concentration of hyaluronate did not lead to the desired result. Quite the opposite: in this case, there is no revitalizing effect, the skin becomes dry and stretched.
How to increase the effectiveness of the drug? Use other components that enhance and complement the action of hyaluronic acid! Bellarti biorevitalizants from the pharmaceutical company Solopharm, in addition to hyaluronate, contain components such as mannitol or glycerol. Let's take a closer look at these drugs and their effect on the skin.
Bellarti biorevitalizants are based on premium French-made HTL hyaluronic acid. A high degree of purification and non-animal origin make it completely safe. Additional ingredients enhance and improve the effect of hyaluronic acid.
What is facial biorevitalization and its effectiveness
Biorevitalization is a cosmetic procedure in which hyaluronic acid is introduced into different layers of the skin through numerous injections or through physical impact. It has long been known that hyaluronic acid is an important compound that is produced in the skin. It ensures the retention of water molecules and is used by special cells, fibroblasts, to synthesize collagen and elastin fibers. They, in turn, are responsible for the elasticity of the skin, i.e. its youth.
Over the years, the activity of fibroblasts decreases, they are destroyed, as well as the content of hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases. This leads to the manifestation of natural signs of age-related changes: loss of skin elasticity, i.e., sagging, formation of wrinkles, jowls, deterioration of complexion, etc.
Hyaluronic acid introduced during biorevitalization helps solve these problems and reduce the rate of age-related changes by replenishing its deficiency in the skin, which means retaining more water and activating the activity of fibroblasts. Thus, the skin is saturated with hyaluronic acid, which makes it possible to moisturize and improve tone. As a result, the face looks fresher and more youthful. It follows that this cosmetic procedure will be useful mainly for people who are already beginning to show signs of age-related changes, i.e. over 30 years old.
At the same time, in the older category of patients, it will give a much less pronounced effect, since after 45 years, doses of hyaluronic acid administered as part of biorevitalization are not able to completely restore its reserves in the skin, nor lead to the formation of a sufficient number of new fibroblasts. Therefore, in this age category, biorevitalization will have an effect, but its severity will be significantly less, as will the duration of preservation.
Biorevitalization is most effective in the age range of 30-45 years.
But this cosmetic procedure can also be indicated at a younger age, in particular at 25 years of age and earlier. But in such situations, it is not aimed at rejuvenating the skin, but at solving other problems with it, in particular eliminating dryness, excessively enlarged pores, acne, and recovery after other procedures or operations.
To achieve the best result, an average of 3-5 sessions are required with an interval of 2-4 weeks. The exact number of procedures and the frequency of their implementation is determined by the cosmetologist based on the severity of the existing problem. On average, this course is enough to maintain the effect for 6-12 months, after which it is recommended to carry out 1-2 procedures to restore the result.
The duration of the effect depends directly on the characteristics of the skin, age, and the nature of the existing problems.
Thus, biorevitalization is indeed a very interesting and useful cosmetic procedure that can solve a number of skin problems of various types in people of different ages. But it is still worth carrying out if there are indications and a reliable absence of contraindications, and not according to fashion trends or recommendations from the environment.
Effect
During the procedure, synthetic hyaluronic acid enters the dermal cells, which are forced to react to it. This manifests itself in a greater release of elastin collagen fibers. In addition, the injected gel binds water molecules. The mesodermal layer is filled, the skin becomes denser and begins to smooth out. As a result, fine wrinkles become invisible, deep wrinkles become less noticeable. Skin color improves, facial contour tightens. This result lasts for a long period, usually from six months to a year. Then the biorevitalization procedure can be repeated.
Despite the apparent simplicity of the procedure, it must be done exclusively in a clinic and with a competent specialist with special education. This is because the following factors guarantee success:
- correctly selected drug (its composition and concentration of hyaluronic acid, age and nature of the problem are taken into account);
- correct introduction of the gel: the angle of the needle, the depth of the injection, and the method of administration, for example, point or linear, play a role here.
Advantages and disadvantages of the method
Biorevitalization has a number of advantages that make it stand out from other cosmetic procedures. First of all, with its help it is possible to give the face freshness and the skin an inner glow. It allows you to improve the shape of your face, as well as reduce fine wrinkles, not artificially, but by restoring the structure of your own tissues. And since the method involves the use of hyaluronic acid natural to the skin, it is safe.
In general, the advantages of biorevitalization are considered:
- natural renewal of skin cells and inhibition of aging processes naturally;
- ease of preparation for the procedure;
- speed of execution (biorevitalization requires no more than an hour);
- minimal level of pain when administering hyaluronic acid preparations;
- rapid skin restoration;
- obtaining a visible result a week after 1-2 sessions and maintaining it for a long time;
- a small number of absolute contraindications;
- affordable price, especially in comparison with other cosmetic procedures that have a rejuvenating, moisturizing effect.
But biorevitalization also has certain disadvantages. First of all, it is necessary to undergo a course of procedures to obtain a lasting, pronounced result.
The second drawback is largely due to the popularity of the procedure, which leads to the fact that today it is done even in beauty salons by “specialists” without medical education. In order for biorevitalization to be effective and safe, the specialist performing it must understand the structural features of different types of skin in different areas of the face, individually select the depth of drug administration and know which areas should be avoided. Only a certified cosmetologist who has received a full medical education can have such knowledge, since it is impossible to thoroughly understand the numerous features of the skin during short-term courses.
As a result of biorevitalization being carried out by non-professionals, who often are not even convinced that there are no contraindications to it, the frequency of unwanted effects sharply increases, not to mention the low effectiveness of the procedure. In some cases, patients even have to seek help from plastic surgeons after such procedures to eliminate the consequences of improper administration of hyaluronic acid. This is why you can find the most polarizing reviews about biorevitalization online, especially when treating the skin around the eyes.
You can only trust biorevitalization to a certified cosmetologist working in a medical center!
Thus, biorevitalization really has many advantages, and its only objective disadvantage is the need for periodic repetition. This, however, is typical for almost all cosmetic procedures. At the same time, it is a safe method of improving the condition of the skin, but only when performed by a qualified cosmetologist with a medical education.
Manufacturer
The Russian pharmaceutical company Solopharm has its own R&D development department, analytical and microbiological laboratories.
The production process of biorevitalizants is carefully controlled at all stages. Modern equipment ensures complete sterility of drugs. The company has 27 production lines that produce 1.8 billion units of products per year.
Interestingly, all installations in production have their own name. For example, the machine used to fill Bellarti is named Eva.
How is the drug selected?
The choice of biorevitaolisant and the method of its administration should be made by a doctor, and only after an in-person examination and medical history. Of course, the patient’s wishes are also taken into account, but the last word should be left to the doctor.
The drug for biorevitalization is selected individually. This takes into account such factors as: ● the patient’s age; ● skin condition; ● morphotype of aging; ● processing area.
For example, if you are prone to swelling and pastiness, biorevitalizants without additional components may not be effective enough, but a drug with mannitol will help not only moisturize the skin, but also remove swelling.
Russian Bellarti , made from proven raw materials, have already proven their effectiveness and are actively used by cosmetologists. This is an excellent choice for those who want to look young and attractive at any age.
How many procedures do you need to do to get results?
To get the first noticeable result from the injections, some need to undergo a facial biorevitalization procedure once. For others, due to the characteristics of the skin, the effect will become noticeable only after several sessions (for example, if a woman with many wrinkles came for the procedure).
However, in most cases, the effect begins to appear after one or two sessions, and is visible after the entire course of biorevitalization. Here it is also worth remembering that the result also depends on the regularity of visiting the cosmetologist and the procedure.
