What is the secret of the popularity of Ivor fillers, reviews from experts

Description of the line

The Yvoire line of fillers is produced by the pharmacological department of the famous LG concern - Life Sciences. Country of manufacture: South Korea. Considering the scale of the manufacturer, long-term research, and the introduction of new technologies, Life Science was able to do so.

The Ivor line of fillers is based on hyaluronic acid . The work uses a high molecular weight synthesized substance. The concern produces raw materials for its products independently. The fillers in the line are available in 2 versions: pure gel, with the addition of lidocaine (variant marked plus).

When carrying out microbiological fermentation, innovations are used to obtain the substance: HESH technologies, which make it possible to achieve a more stable, easy-to-work consistency of the substance. Fillers combine progressive characteristics: ease of administration, maximum uniformity of distribution, resistance to deformation, uncontrolled movement after injections, and rapid destruction of the material.

The effectiveness of YVOIRE has been confirmed by long-term clinical studies. The safety of drugs is regulated by compliance with the restrictions established by numerous certificates and standards (Korean, international, Russian).

Advantages

All positive aspects of the Ivor series were assessed by Roszdravnadzor, EDQM, KFDA and FDA.

The very first advantage is elasticity and resistance to deformation, which allows injections to be made in areas of the face that are subject to facial activity, without fear of getting an undesirable effect.

You can purchase 1 unit of filler for 3.5–6 thousand rubles. The price of the drug depends on the version of the drug.

When applying for filling or biorevitalization to a beauty salon or clinic, you do not need to worry about purchasing the gel. The price of the substance is included in the cost of the procedure announced to the patient.

Progress of the procedure

The Yvoire line of drugs is administered subcutaneously using a specific technology. The depth of injection depends on which option is chosen to work in a particular case. The details of the manipulation of the funds are determined by the doctor. To do this, before the intervention, it is necessary to conduct a consultation with the patient in person.

Attention! An important condition for the effectiveness and safety of the process of using Ivor gels is the qualified use of the substance. Injections should only be done by cosmetologists (surgeons specializing in plastic surgery) who have been trained in the use of the line’s products.

Biorevitalization and contour plastic surgery with gels from the Ivor line are carried out on an outpatient basis. The process requires sterility. The actions do not involve hospitalization of the patient. The procedure takes 20–60 minutes. After the intervention, you can do most of your usual activities.

The technique for working with fillers and biorevitalizants Ivor is standard:

1. The cosmetologist prepares the necessary documents and places the patient in a position convenient for corrective injections (the sitting position is considered the most suitable).
2. The doctor cleanses the skin, anesthetizes the areas (if necessary, with the patient’s consent), and disinfects the areas of intended impact.
3. The cosmetologist performs markings: draws puncture points and filling lines. When carrying out biorevitalization, this stage of preparation is excluded.
4. The doctor prepares the drug for use: opens the package, installs a needle or cannula. The substance in the syringe is completely ready for use.
5. The cosmetologist injects the gel under the skin in a pre-selected method. The needle tip is immersed into the skin to the required depth, and the required amount of substance is measured by pressing on the syringe plunger.
6. After complete treatment of the skin with gel, the doctor disinfects the areas involved in the procedure with an antiseptic.
7. The cosmetologist, together with the patient, evaluates the achievements and gives recommendations for recovery.

Biorevitalization with Ivor gel is carried out in courses consisting of 2–6 or more procedures. The intervention is performed once every 1–2 weeks. For contouring using line filler injections, a single session is sufficient.

Recovery process

The skin may become red and swollen after Yvoire injections. Itching, pain, and other discomfort may occur in the treatment areas. Biorevitalization usually affects the formation of resistant papules. The traumatism of the procedure is minimal, but the occurrence of swelling and bruising is considered a typical phenomenon. Negative manifestations pass without additional influence. Normalization of the external picture is observed in 2–7 days.

Facial care after injections is carried out according to the standard principle: regular cleansing, use of usual cosmetics (except scrubs). Skin contact with water and the use of cosmetics are excluded only on the first day.

During the recovery period, you will need to follow the restrictions specified by the cosmetologist. Usually the following are prohibited for up to 1–2 weeks:

• drink alcoholic beverages;
• use decorative cosmetics;
• engage in sports, physical labor;
• sunbathe;
• be exposed to hot air, water;
• swim in the pool or other open (public) bodies of water;
• perform various intensive skin procedures (peeling, hardware treatment).

The result of injections of Ivor products is immediately noticeable: the skin takes on a fresh look, tightens, and smoothes. Advances make it difficult to evaluate typical side effects (swelling, bruising). The effect of biorevitalizant is less weak and lasts less time.

Important! You can get the desired effectiveness only after a course of procedures. The results of the injections last for a period of 6 to 18 months. How long the effect will last depends not only on the substance, but also on the patient (body characteristics, lifestyle).

The correction is performed by a doctor. To change achievements, a cosmetologist may also recommend taking a course of hardware physical therapy.

Regular exercise, visiting a bathhouse, sauna will help reduce the effectiveness of Ivor fillers.

Precautionary measures

• oncology, autoimmune disorders;
• significant blood diseases (coagulation disorders, hemophilia);
• hypersensitivity to Ivor components;
• wounds, inflammation in areas to be treated;
• any disease that occurs in an acute form.

The procedure is not carried out until adulthood, during pregnancy or lactation. If the doctor detects the presence of severe disorders of the body (psychosomatic, endocrine, cardiovascular pathologies), then the possibility of intervention may be excluded or additional examination may be prescribed. It is not advisable to carry out the procedure if the patient is not feeling well or has recently undergone aggressive aesthetic procedures (peeling, resurfacing).

The risk of complications from injections of Ivor products is low . 5th generation fillers are maximally consistent in composition and principle of action.

Advantages and disadvantages

• reasonable price of the substance;
• the ability to choose a product with or without an anesthetic;

• long lasting results.

Among the analogues of the gels in the line, there are more advertised products known to cosmetologists and patients (Princess, Juvederm, Restylane) .

Rehabilitation

After a day, it is recommended to begin treating the puncture sites with gentle antiseptic compounds (without alcohols).
