Regeness fillers - a “time machine” for your skin

Modern contour plastic surgery no longer requires the mandatory use of a scalpel, since appearance correction can be approached with the help of other drugs. The most popular today are fillers. The word is derived from the English verb “to fill”, that is, “to fill”. Fillers are a kind of placeholders that can even out skin unevenness, smooth out wrinkles, and make lips or cheekbones more expressive.

Korean fillers “Rejeunesse” are popular today. You can study reviews about this drug, varieties and price by reading this article.

Description of the drug

The active substance in the composition is hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, produced through artificial synthesis.

The visible effect of use is achieved due to the fact that hyaluronate interacts with a substance biologically produced by the body and replenishes lost volumes under the influence of aging or aggressive external factors.

As a result, not only the dermis is enriched with nutrients and hydrobalance is normalized, but also natural processes in the epithelial layers for the production of collagen and elastin are activated.

Regeness fillers differ from analogues in their optimal uniformity of consistency and ease of implantation, thanks to the patented UPHEK production technology.

Buyanov Sergey Yuryevich (Expert Doctor):
The patented UPHEC technology provides for 8-phase purification of glucuronides, thereby increasing resistance to biodegradation. This explains the long-lasting effect of the drug.

What's happened

Rejeunesse fillers are produced by a well-known Korean pharmaceutical company founded in 2013. The brand is developing in the direction of aesthetic cosmetology. The company independently conducts various studies and takes part in the development of new formulas. All products are equipped with international certificates and are popular among many cosmetic clinics.

Rejeunesse fillers are presented in 4 preparations, the main active ingredient of which is highly purified hyaluronic acid in different concentrations.

These fillers are suitable for contouring the lips, face, buttocks, thighs and hands.

The main component of fillers is hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, which undergoes 8 degrees of purification. Due to the fact that the processing is carried out using the patented UPHEC technology, all products in the Rejeunesse series have increased plasticity, have a uniform consistency and are easy to use.

Despite the fact that the decay period of Rejeunesse filler is 1.5 years, it is recommended to re-inject after 6 months.
Those who decide not to continue the course of procedures should not think about changing their turgor. The skin will gradually return to its original state.

7 years experience

The entire line consists of 4 types of preparations, the difference between which lies in the degree of concentration of hyaluronic acid. In addition, the products contain the anesthetic component lidocaine, making the procedure painless and with minimal discomfort.

This collection of biorevitalizants has increased efficiency. Biogel is removed from tissues within at least one and a half years.

Rejeunesse lip and body fillers are sold in the form of syringes filled with 1.1 milliliters of product. The kit also includes two thin needles.

The gel has no color, mechanical inclusions and odor. Hyaluronic acid is present in the composition at a concentration of 24 mg/ml, lidocaine – 3 mg/ml.

Types of fillers

Reginness rejuvenation products are produced by the Korean cosmeceutical company NEWMEDIC Co.Ltd. This line has been in high demand among cosmetologists and their clients since 2013.

The collection is represented by several fillers, each of which has a prolonged effect on the dermis.

Rejeunesse Fine

Dermal gel containing 24 mg/ml hyaluronic acid, supplemented with lidocaine for greater comfort during injections.

It is distinguished by high plasticity rates, however, the main component in the drug, unlike many biorevitalizants, does not have cross-linking molecules.

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):

The structure without cross-linking of hyaluronic acid molecules is distinguished by the fact that a thin, single-layer lattice is formed, in the cells of which liquid is retained and the necessary cosmetic effect is manifested, which evenly spreads over the width of the lattice.

The product is presented in the form of a syringe with a volume of 1.1 ml. The effect is observed for up to a year.

Purposes of use:

• lip enlargement;
• elimination of small age-related and expression wrinkles in the face and neck;
• contour plastic surgery of intimate areas.

Rejeunesse Deep

Filler for biorevitalization with a medium density consistency.
Additionally, it is used to sculpt areas of the face, as well as to give volume to the lips, bio-reinforce the contour of the jawline, and adjust the relief in the cheekbone area.

The drug contains hyaluronate with a concentration of 24 mg/ml. Biodegradation of the drug is not activated for a year to a year and a half.

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):

The hyaluronic acid preparation, containing the word deep in the name, is of medium density and is able to penetrate deeper. The resulting lattice is more flexible and wider. That is why the product is used to “smooth out” deep wrinkles.

Rejeunesse Shape

This is the longest-lasting filler among these drugs produced in Korea.
The gel formula is supplemented with lidocaine, hyaluronic acid at a concentration of 24 mg/ml. The drug is intended for contour plastic surgery. With the help of injections, you can change the shape of the tip of the nose, sculpt the chin, and add volume to the lips.

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):

The product contains hyaluronic acid of even greater density. Due to this, plasticity is reduced, but elasticity gains.

Rejeunesse Sparkle Lidocaine

Biorevitalizant, with the help of which there is a general improvement of the epidermis and normalization of the water balance in the cells.

It is distinguished by the lowest degree of reticulation of hyaluronate molecules (3%), which makes it possible to eliminate the problem of fine wrinkles by filling the intercellular space of the middle layer of the dermis.

Lidocaine (0.3%) is used as an additional component, while hyaluron is presented in a concentration of 20 mg/ml.

A distinctive feature of the filler is the innovative form of hyaluronate molecules, presented in 4D-Matrix format. Thanks to this, not only a lifting effect is achieved, but also a protective film is created, thanks to which the dermal filler is able to maximally resist the effects of environmental factors.

The product is often used by cosmetologists to correct the hydraulics of the facial contour and prevent subsequent sagging of the contour.

With the help of invasions with Sparkle, you can get rid of wrinkles, soften the relief of the nasolabial fold, remove creases and “crow’s feet” in the eye and lip area.

Rejeunesse: what do we know about this Korean filler and why we don’t recommend it

Asian products for contouring are captivating due to their affordable prices compared to their European counterparts. But such savings are not always justified.

Rejeunesse are fillers based on stabilized hyaluronic acid for volumetric correction of the face and body. Their main advantages are a high degree of purification of raw materials and a long-lasting correction effect, and patients are most attracted by the low price.

What are these drugs and where did they come from on the Russian market? What problems can be solved with their help? How safe are they? Read the detailed review of TecRussia.ru:

↑ Information about the manufacturer

• The line is produced by New Medic Co, Ltd., founded in 2013 and registered in a regular business center in South Korea. She does not have a serious business reputation or high-profile projects. We also could not find information about where the raw materials and the drug itself are produced in the public domain.
• Rejeunesse is supplied to our country under a gray scheme - it is not registered as a medical product in Roszdravnadzor, but is issued through a declaration of conformity with the CU regulations, as a cosmetic product not intended for injection. The applicant is a certain LLC “MIRCOS” from Yekaterinburg. Then the products imported in this way are sold to practicing cosmetologists through numerous small online stores.
• There are very few mentions of the brand in the Western segment of the Internet, only isolated offers for sale. The drugs are also not certified in the European Union.

↑ Indications for use

Regeness fillers are designed to eliminate a number of aesthetic defects of the face, neck, hands and décolleté:

• replenishment of the missing volume of adipose tissue;
• filling of atrophic scars, stretch marks;
• elimination of wrinkles, including facial wrinkles, nasolabial folds, nasolacrimal grooves;
• improvement of facial contour (vector lifting and bioreinforcement);
• non-surgical rhinoplasty;
• adding volume to lips, cheekbones, chin;
• improving the appearance and condition of mature skin.

↑ Composition

The main raw material for the production of Korean fillers is artificially synthesized hyaluronic acid. According to New Medic, it goes through 8 levels of purification. Unlike natural ones, artificial HA molecules are arranged in a long chain, which allows them to more effectively attract and retain moisture. The particles are then “crosslinked” and stabilized, a process called reticulation. The second active component of the product is lidocaine. It is necessary to make the volumetric correction procedure comfortable.

When the gel is injected into the problem area, the following happens:

• Hyaluronic acid fills the space between collagen and elastin fibers, smoothing the skin and “pushing out” wrinkles.
• Filler molecules actively attract water particles, making the dermis look fresh and moisturized for a long time.
• Due to special processing in production, the gel molecules contain only cross-links, which promotes uniform distribution under the skin and helps create the necessary volume in problem areas.

↑ How long does Regeness filler last?

New Medic calls UPHEC technology an important advantage of its product, which ensures plasticity and resistance to resorption. This supposedly guarantees a longer lasting effect compared to analogues.

• How long does the effect of fillers last and how to prolong it?

The stated validity period of the drugs is from 6 to 18 months, depending on the density. But there is no real evidence that Rejeunesse lasts so long in the reviews of cosmetologists and patients.

• By the way, on its website the manufacturer claims that it will soon release fundamentally new hyaluronic acid fillers based on its own developments, which will last up to 3-5 years. However, it’s hard to believe that a little-known Korean company owns such technologies. In addition, such “long-lasting” drugs are already on the market (Ellanse based on polycaprolactone, for example), the problem is that precisely because of their prolonged action and high density they are poorly suited for working with those areas of the face where contouring is usually done plastic surgery – lips, nasolabial lips, areas under the eyes, etc. Therefore, the very feasibility of such a development is highly questionable.

↑ What products are included in the line

One biorevitalizant and three fillers are produced under the Rejeunesse brand. Information about them is presented in the table:

All gels are supplied in 1.1 ml syringes with two needles included. The volume of biorevitalizant is 2.5 ml, 3 syringes in one package.

↑ How the procedure is performed

The introduction of Regeness fillers is performed according to a standard scheme, which includes the following steps:

• Consultation with a cosmetologist. The doctor finds out what problems bother the patient, conducts an examination, identifies contraindications and selects the optimal drug from the line.
• Skin preparation. Consists of cleaning and applying disinfectant solutions. In the areas that are planned to be corrected, the cosmetologist makes special markings in a standing position to make it easier to navigate during the injections (they are carried out while half-sitting on the couch).
• Filler injection is carried out using either a needle, which is included in the kit, or a special cannula. The depth of the injections is determined by the type of drug. The doctor kneads the treatment areas and gently massages them so that the gel is evenly distributed in the tissues.
• Completion of the procedure. The skin puncture sites are treated with an antiseptic, and a cold compress is used to relieve discomfort. The cosmetologist gives the patient recommendations on facial care for the first few days, after which you can go home.

↑ Contraindications, complications and side effects

Preparations based on hyaluronic acid, incl. Rejeunesse does not apply in the following cases:

• pregnancy and lactation;
• acute infectious pathologies, which are accompanied by a rise in temperature;
• violation of blood clotting processes;
• intolerance to hyaluronic acid, lidocaine and other components of the drug;
• oncological formations;
• chronic diseases of internal organs in the acute stage.

There is no information about specific complications and side effects associated with Regeness. However, there are quite a few reviews that mention the appearance of fibrosis after lip augmentation with this filler. This cannot be ruled out with the introduction of any HA-based drugs, but it is likely that there is a connection between the large number of fibrotic complications and the prolonged action of the drugs declared by the manufacturer.

Also, when using these gels, all the typical problems for “beauty injections” cannot be excluded: bruises, swelling, pain, allergies to anesthetic, etc. For more information about these troubles, as well as methods for their treatment and prevention, see our articles:

• Complications after contouring
• What not to do after lip augmentation - safety precautions for patients

↑ Conclusions TecRussia.ru:

• The Rejeunesse line is not registered in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation. No one is responsible for the quality and safety of these drugs in our country. Neither the Korean manufacturer nor the Russian sellers have a trustworthy reputation.
• The popularity of such a dubious product rests mainly on its attractive price. The cost of the package is 2500–3500 rubles, respectively, the cost of the procedure for the patient may well remain within 4-5 thousand rubles.
• There are quite a lot of reviews about the drug, both negative and positive. The large number of reports on fibrosis is noteworthy.
• However, it is likely that the composition itself is safe and is quite consistent with what can be expected from Asian fillers. The main problem is that due to its counterfeit status, cosmetologists who value their name and reputation do not work with it. We believe that this explains the rather large number of negative reviews about the drug, which describe complications that are quite typical for GC: it’s not so much about the filler, but about who injects it.
• Due to the combination of these factors, we do not recommend the Rejeunesse line, especially for lip augmentation and correction of the area around the eyes, where fibrosis and other problems are easiest to develop. As an alternative, it makes sense to pay attention to more expensive, but absolutely “white” drugs: if finances allow, then choose European classics like Juvederm, if not, then well-proven Asian products, for example Yvoire or Reneall.

Indications for use

The use of Rejeunesse products is not limited to age categories, therefore biorevitalization and invasive plastic surgery are allowed from the age of 18.

Unhealthy skin color, sagging and the first wrinkles are provoked not only by age, but also by unfavorable environmental conditions, lack of proper care and weight fluctuations. It is often impossible to do without injections.

Among the indications for the use of biorevitalizants are:

• excessive dryness of the skin;
• flabbiness;
• loss of dermal turgor;
• soreness of skin color;
• displacement of the oval lines of the face;
• need for lip augmentation;
• pronounced nasolabial folds;
• wrinkles (static and facial);
• the presence of “crow’s feet”;
• folds in the periorbital and perioral zones;
• incorrect symmetry of facial features;
• drooping corners of the lips;
• stretch marks and scars;
• the need to correct the nose, chin and cheekbones.

What zones can you enter into?

The drug Rejeunesse has gained its popularity primarily due to its wide range of effects. It allows you to get rid of many cosmetic problems. Filler can be injected into different parts of the body. As a rule, when correcting the face, the substance acts on the lip area, around the eyes, nose and nasolabial folds.

Also, depending on the existing defects, the drug can be injected into the skin on the abdomen, buttocks and thighs, in the décolleté area, feet and the back of the hands.

Cost of the drug

You can buy the necessary dermal filler on any online platform that specializes in distributing products and consumables for invasive cosmetology.
However, in this case there is a high probability of getting a fake. The best option is to go to the official website of the distributor in Russia and purchase the product there. Quality is guaranteed by the authentic certificate provided.

The average price for Shine, Deep and Fine is 2,900 rubles per pack; Sparkle will cost more – about 5,600.

Precautionary measures

The outcome and effectiveness of the procedure for correcting aesthetic defects depends on several points that are worth paying attention to.

The fundamental thing is to choose a highly qualified cosmetologist with a license to provide services and a training certificate.

A competent specialist conducts an initial consultation, during which he identifies all the individual characteristics of the patient, gives recommendations and determines the degree of impact on the skin.

To avoid undesirable effects and minimize complications, it is necessary to exclude all possible contraindications. Among them:

• pregnancy;
• lactation period;
• oncology;
• psychosomatic disorders;
• autoimmune diseases;
• elevated blood sugar levels;
• herpes;
• inflammation in the affected area;
• rehabilitation period after surgery;
• respiratory diseases;
• chronic diseases in the acute stage;
• tendency to form keloid scars;
• blood clotting problems;
• intolerance to the component composition;
• allergic reactions;
• hemophilia;
• Carrying out deep peeling (laser and chemical) the day before.

Contraindications

Rejuvenation and correction using Rejeunesse fillers has its certain limitations.

To reduce the likelihood of developing side effects and prevent the occurrence of undesirable effects, it is not recommended to carry out the procedure in case of cancer, psychosomatic disorders, herpetic rashes, autoimmune diseases, or the presence of inflammatory processes at the site of exposure.

Contraindications also include chronic diseases in the acute stage, increased blood sugar levels, respiratory diseases, blood clotting disorders, a tendency to allergic reactions and individual intolerance.

It is prohibited to inject hyaluronic acid during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Side effects

Usually the rehabilitation period lasts for several days, and if all recommendations are followed, all visible side effects (redness and swelling) disappear. They do not require additional therapy.

However, if your condition worsens, you should consult a specialist as soon as possible to avoid complications.

Undesirable effects can be expressed by the following manifestations:

• severe swelling;
• hematomas;
• redness, rashes and itching;
• seals in places where the skin is punctured;
• migration of the gel to neighboring areas;
• painful sensations;
• asymmetry;
• inflammatory processes.

Consequences

After using Rejeunesse fillers, it is rare to experience various side effects that persist for up to one week. In this case, the patient will complain of burning and itching, pain when touching the treated area, redness, bumps and bumps in the place where the drug was injected.

If the described symptoms do not disappear for a long time, you should immediately seek help from a specialist who performed the rejuvenation procedure.

Description of the procedure

The essence of biorevitalization is the implementation of injections. Hyaluronic acid, entering the intercellular space, tightly secures water molecules. As a result, the skin protein is fixed in the desired position and the expected rejuvenating effect is achieved.

The chronology of the procedure itself has a standard plan in any clinic.

Preparation

Several weeks before the procedure, a complete medical history of the client is collected. At the same time, the skin is diagnosed, the scope of the treatment zone is established, and the most suitable drug is selected from the line.

During this period, the following rules must be observed:

• limit physical activity in any of its manifestations;
• do not drink alcoholic beverages, fatty foods, and smoking is also prohibited;
• Coffee and tea, as well as dishes with a high salt content, are prohibited on the day of therapy;
• It is prohibited to carry out any manipulations with the skin.

Administration technique

Biorevitalization Rejeunesse can be aimed at the following areas:

• neck;
• face;
• intimate areas.

The filler itself is introduced through microinjections to a depth of 1 mm at an angle of 30 degrees. When correcting the neck area, the angle of inclination changes and is positioned as perpendicular as possible. This reduces the level of injury.

There are several microinjections.

1. Spot. In this case, a series of injections is performed, which can be visually combined into one line. The drug is administered in the form of small papules 1 mm in size parallel to the wrinkles. In particular, it is used in delicate areas, which makes it possible to correct the perioral and periorbital zones painlessly and with minimal trauma.
2. Picotage technique. Injection is made into the upper layers of the dermis. The product is administered in small portions at a distance of 1 centimeter.
3. Papular. Thanks to this technique, the rate of diffusion of the drug is inhibited. Hyaluronate is injected to a depth of 1-2 mm with the needle tilted at 30 degrees so that a kind of “depot” for the filler is formed. The distance between the punctures of the dermis is 1-2 cm.
4. Linear. The principle of the method is to completely immerse the needle and inject the drug as it exits the layers of the skin. The angle in this case should also be 30-40 degrees, and the depth should be 1 mm. However, the outline of the needle should not be visible through the dermis, but only a slightly visible silhouette.

Stages of the procedure

1. Thorough cleansing of the skin from traces of decorative cosmetics and other types of contaminants.
2. Treatment of the local area with an antiseptic to disinfect the integument.
3. If necessary, apply an anesthetic cream (Emla is often used) or administer lidocaine. However, in most cases, this stage is omitted due to the painlessness of the procedure and the anesthetic included in some fillers.
4. Opening the drug and entering data into the file cabinet.
5. Implantation of dermal filler into the target area using a predetermined technique.
6. Antiseptic treatment.

The session lasts about 60 minutes.

To model areas of the face, 1 time is enough, but the number of approaches and frequency depend on individual characteristics.

Stages of execution by a cosmetologist

To inject filler, one of the following techniques is used.

Spot

It is characterized by a series of injections, which, when visualized, are combined into a single line. The drug is administered in small papules, the size of which does not exceed one millimeter parallel to the wrinkle line. It is most often used in relation to delicate areas of the body, as a result of which it minimizes the severity of pain and trauma.

Picotage

Injections are made into the superficial layers of the epidermis. In this case, it is necessary to administer the product in small volumes at a distance of one centimeter.

Papular

This technique allows you to reduce the rate of diffusion of the product. Hyaluronate is injected 1-2 millimeters deep, with the needle tilted at 30 degrees.

Linear

The needle is completely immersed in the layers of the skin, and the drug is administered at its exit. The inclination angle is approximately 40 degrees, and the penetration depth is 1 mm. In this case, the outline of the needle should not be allowed to be visible through the dermis.

The entire procedure involves the sequential execution of a series of actions.

First, the specialist thoroughly cleanses the skin of decorative cosmetics, sebaceous secretions, dust particles and dirt. The affected area is treated with an antiseptic solution.

If necessary, a cream with an anesthetic property is applied to the surface. Next, the specialist opens the package with the drug in front of the patient and enters all the data into a special card.

At the next stage, the active substance is introduced into the area along the intended contours. At the end, the treated surface is also disinfected with an antiseptic.

One session can last no more than an hour.

If it is necessary to model areas of the face, then one procedure will be sufficient. However, the number of approaches will depend on the individual characteristics of the client.

Healing period

The first few days the client may experience discomfort - itching, pain, redness and slight swelling.

It is important to follow the recommendations so as not to cause complications.

1. It is prohibited to use various cosmetic products.
2. Do not wash your face in running water. It is better to use light lotions for washing; you should consult with a leading specialist about this in advance.
3. For a week, do not drink alcohol, as well as salty or fatty foods.
4. Do not touch the affected area with your hands or other surfaces throughout the day.
5. Do not visit the gym, sauna, solarium or gym. Thermal and physical stress, as well as ultraviolet radiation, negatively affect the course of rehabilitation.

Recommendations after

To minimize the likelihood of developing side effects, experts recommend following certain rules during the rehabilitation period.

First of all, you need to stop using decorative cosmetics and any skin care products. For washing, especially on the first day, you should not use running water. A special lotion is suitable for this purpose.

For 7 days, you should avoid drinking alcoholic beverages, fatty and salty foods.

On the day of cosmetic manipulation, you should not touch the treated areas with your hands or come into contact with other surfaces.

The list of recommendations includes avoiding baths, saunas, swimming pools and solariums. In addition, it is advisable to temporarily exclude sports and any other physical activity. The skin must be protected from ultraviolet exposure.
