It's not a secret for anyone that with age our skin changes not for the better: wrinkles appear, elasticity decreases, color and relief worsen. At some point, any woman begins to understand that it's time to act and seek help - and above all, a beautician. In the beauty salon can offer a number of procedures for the restoration and rejuvenation of the skin - this can be mesotherapy, chemical and enzyme peels, and many other methods. In addition, today such procedure as hyaluronic biorevitalization is very popular. What is this procedure and what is it for?
Indications for the procedure
Hyaluronic biorevitalization will be very useful in the following conditions:
- when dry and dehydrated skin, lethargic, flabbiness;
- at excessive fat content and enlarged pores;
- with a loss of skin elasticity;
- with acne and its consequences;
- with stretch marks, cicatricial changes, superficial scars;
- when the color of the skin due to weathering, exposure to ultraviolet light, etc .;
- if there is a visible capillary mesh;
- with hyperpigmentation and freckles.

Preparation
Before starting the procedure of hyaluronic biorevitalization, the cosmetologist will recommend the patient to make a small preparation, which consists in observing the following rules:
- a few days before the procedure (approximately 4 days), it is necessary to stop taking antibiotics and drugs that affect blood clotting;
- 7-10 days before the procedure, you can not go to the sauna or sauna;
- 14 days before the procedure, it is necessary to exclude sunburn, including in the solarium;
- 3 hours before the beginning of biorevitalization, you should get rid of any cosmetics on the treated areas.
Immediately before the session, the skin in the treatment area should be clean and dry.
Technique of the hyaluronic biorevitalization
The procedure of hyaluronic biorevitalization can last up to 60 minutes, which depends, in the main, on the area of the treated surface of the skin. How does the procedure work?
The cosmetologist cleanses the required area of the skin, applies an anesthetic (usually a special cream). Further, the specialist makes intradermal injections of the drug in certain places: for this he can use a syringe or a special injector device, which makes the administration of the substance more painless, accurate and even.
When cheating, the patient may feel a slight discomfort, the degree of which depends on the individual level of pain threshold.
After the introduction of the substance, the cosmetologist will give the necessary recommendations for further care of the treated skin.
Types of hyaluronic acid for biorevitalization
At least two classifications of hyaluronic acid are known. They are subdivided depending on the chemical structure of the substance, and on the origin of the preparation.
According to the chemical structure, hyaluronic acid is:
- low molecular weight, which is "assembled" from the molecules of the short chain and has an anti-inflammatory effect, which makes it possible to use such an acid for acne, psoriasis, herpes, superficial erosions and ulcers;
- medium-molecular, which has an effect that inhibits cell division and multiplication. This property is useful in the pathology of the joints and organs of vision;
- high molecular weight, which is able to attract water molecules, thereby providing elasticity and hydration of the skin. This kind of hyaluronic acid is most often used for hyaluronic biorevitalization.
In its origin, hyaluronic acid is:
- animal origin;
- industrial production.
Despite the fact that hyaluronic acid of animal origin has a natural composition, its use often causes allergies or inflammatory reactions. Therefore, many experts have long preferred to use hyaluronic acid, obtained by industrial means - especially as the synthesis of such acid is constantly being improved. For example, at this time for the production of industrial "hyaluronka" used microorganisms grown on a decoction of wheat.
Injection biorevitalization of the face with hyaluronic acid
Injections of hyaluronic acid for the face are in demand more than for other parts of the body. The procedure of injection biorevitalisation is applied, both for the overall effect of rejuvenation, and for the elimination of individual wrinkles and skin folds (for example, folds on the forehead or above the lips).
Hyaluronic acid in injections acts as a filler material: this property allows you to change and improve the contour of the face or its individual parts (for example, cheekbones). Injections can also be used to create a volume in the cheeks, eyes, temples and lips.
Injection hyaluronic biorevitalization of the face is carried out at different depths of tissues, depending on the required final result.
Hyaluronic acid with zinc for biorevitalization
Often, in order for the result after hyaluronic biorevitalization to be maximally positive, zinc is added to the preparation with hyaluronic acid. An example of such a combined preparation is Mesolift from Outline.
Zinc is an extremely necessary microelement for the course of physiological processes in the body. Among the many properties of zinc, the following should be emphasized:
- restoration of damaged cells;
- processing of fatty acids;
- warning of allergy;
- prevention of skin microtrauma and early facial wrinkles.
Due to the listed properties, biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid with zinc provides a significant rejuvenation and strengthening of the skin. In addition, zinc is considered an excellent antiseptic, which significantly reduces the risk of inflammation in the skin.
Biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid lips
Biorevitalization of the lips is considered one of the most popular procedures with the use of hyaluronic acid. Injections of this kind are well accepted by the tissues - that is, after the procedure there is no rejection, puffiness or other unpleasant consequences.
Injections of hyaluronic acid help to give lip volume and correct their shape. This correction can be done at almost any age - optimally - from 17 to 60 years.
Hyaluronic biorevitalization of the lips lasts no more than half an hour, and sometimes even less. Injections to the lips may be slightly painful, but many argue that the resulting effect outshines all the unpleasant sensations: the lips become significantly younger, thicker, fresher.
Do not confuse biorevitalization of the lips with the introduction of silicone: the injected drug with hyaluronic acid does not change its location and does not "migrate", as many people think. The result remains stable for a long time.
Biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid of the face
The use of hyaluronic biorevitalization in the face is very popular. Usually, the procedure uses drugs that contain high molecular weight or low molecular weight hyaluronic acid. The use of low-molecular acid allows to increase the production of collagen in tissues, which provides elasticity and strength of the skin.
When treating faces, the hyaluronic drug can be injected into the middle or deeper layers of the skin. The chosen method can be achieved:
- smoothing of fine wrinkles;
- filling large wrinkles and wrinkles;
- correction of the shape of the cheekbones, frontal region, temples;
- improving the contours of the face;
- moisturizing and healing the skin.
For the best effect, you need to choose the right drug for injections: you can do this by consulting with a cosmetologist who will perform biorevitalization.

Biorevitalization of hair with hyaluronic acid
For hair, external exposure is most often used in the form of detergents, masks or rinsers with hyaluronic acid. However, most experts believe that it is not possible to completely solve the problem with hair in this way: it is necessary to apply classical intradermal administration of hyaluronic acid preparations.
The introduction of intradermal injections has a direct effect on the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. This makes it possible to improve trophic processes and circumcline microcirculation, normalize the function of the sebaceous glands and the composition of their secretions.
As a result of the procedure, the hair becomes shiny, strong, smooth and silky.
If the hair before the procedure was thin and weakened, then the effect can not be seen right away: it takes time until new hair with strong and healthy rods grow out.
Apparatus for the procedure of hyaluronic biorevitalization
For those who do not want or are afraid of injecting hyaluronic acid, it may be advisable to pay attention to hardware methods. Such methods involve the use of a low molecular weight version of hyaluronic acid, which has the appearance of a gel-like mass and is applied directly to the surface of the skin. The penetration of matter into the tissues provides a special apparatus.
- Hyaluronic laser biorevitalization is a method of effecting "cold" pulsed beams on a molecular hydrocolloid. Before the beginning of this procedure, the cosmetologist performs a hardware skin cleansing, which serves as a kind of preparation of the surface layers for the deep penetration of hyaluronic acid. After the distribution of the gel-like mass over the surface of the skin, the specialist proceeds to laser irradiation, due to which the hyaluronic filler penetrates into the tissues.
- Ultrasound biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid somewhat resembles the procedure of laser biorevitalization, however, the effect on the skin is carried out not by laser beams, but by ultrasonic waves. After ultrasonic biorevitalization, it is important to regularly apply, within a few days, special reconstructive cosmetics that help to soothe the skin more quickly and improve postprocedural regeneration.

Preparations for biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid
All drugs that are used for hyaluronic biorevitalization contain a certain amount of hyaluronic acid. At present, cosmetologists use at least 10 different similar products from different manufacturers. In this case, most experts prefer such well-known brands as IAL-systems, Restylein Vital, Skin R, Surjilift + and Yuviderm hydrate.
- IAL-systems - this is perhaps the most common drug, which has an effect with almost any skin problems. Apparent positive effect of this drug can be noticed already 2 days after the procedure, and the effect can last for at least six months.
- Skin R is a fundamentally new tool that experts compare with surgery for surgical facelift. The effectiveness of this new drug is explained not only by the presence of hyaluronic acid in the composition, but also by the rich amino acid composition, which greatly enhances the effect of the agent.
- Restylane Vital is a drug with a longer effect, which is explained by the increased moisture of tissues during the procedure. An excellent result can be achieved if this method is used in combination with peeling procedures, Botox injections, plastic, etc.
Which of the preparations for hyaluronic biorevitalization to choose, you should ask a cosmetologist - a qualified specialist will always help to choose a quality product individually.
Contraindications to the procedure
Like any other procedure, hyaluronic biorevitalization has its contraindications:
- autoimmune pathologies;
- period of pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- disorders of blood coagulation;
- acute periods of infections;
- period of menstrual bleeding;
- malignant neoplasms;
- treatment with antibiotics and drugs that affect blood coagulation;
- propensity to allergy to the components of the drug;
- AIDS and other conditions of immunodeficiency.
Complications after the procedure
Before venturing to the procedure of biorevitalization, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with possible complications that may become:
- bruises (bruises) at the injection site, especially in cases where the needle with the drug enters a small vessel;
- redness;
- formation of small nodules (papules);
- small edema or swelling areas.
All these signs are natural and temporary. They pass independently for several days, without requiring additional interventions.
If there is a temperature after biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid, then this indicates the attachment of the infection and the onset of the inflammatory process. This can happen if the procedure was conducted by an insufficiently competent specialist, or with violations of aseptic and antiseptic rules. The temperature can also be provoked by improper skin care after biorevitalization, with ignoring the recommendations of the cosmetologist.
Red spots after biorevitalization are usually temporary and result from skin irritation after injection. Such spots usually pass on their own within 2-3 days. If this does not happen, and redness is accompanied by itching and discomfort, then you should see a doctor - perhaps the injected drug or anesthetic triggered the development of an allergic reaction.
Care after the procedure
In order to accelerate and facilitate the restoration of the skin at the site of administration of the preparation, as well as to prevent the occurrence of undesirable consequences, it is necessary to listen to the following simple recommendations:
- You can not apply cosmetic products to the skin in places where biorevitalization is performed, makeup should not be used (at least 1-2 days);
- within two days, it is allowed to apply to the skin only such drugs that have anti-inflammatory effect;
- at least 2 weeks after the procedure, you can not stay in a solarium, a sauna or a sauna, or sunbathe;
- During the first 2 days after biorevitalization, you should not drink alcohol;
- it is impossible after the procedure to start treatment with drugs that affect blood coagulation.

When is the result visible?
The first noticeable results appear on day 2-3 after hyaluronic biorevitalization. In the course of time, positive changes only increase. The skin acquires a healthy and fresh appearance, the lips become moisturized, and the hair becomes docile and radiant.
User Reviews
On the Internet, you can meet a lot of enthusiastic reviews of the procedure for hyaluronic biorevitalization. However, many emphasize that a stable result can be achieved using not one, but 3-5 sessions of drug administration, with a time interval of 3-4 weeks.
The main results of injection of hyaluronic drugs are:
- tightening of the skin;
- restoration of color, elasticity;
- moisturizing;
- visible rejuvenation;
- freshness and natural appearance of the skin.
As a rule, in the vast majority of cases, the effectiveness of hyaluronic biorevitalization is so significant that it is difficult not to notice it.
Reviews of cosmetologists
Hyaluronic biorevitalization is not the cheapest procedure. At the same time, the cost largely depends on the drug used and the qualification of the cosmetologist who will perform the injections. Therefore, this procedure can not be taken lightly. It is very important to talk with specialists beforehand, to make sure of the quality of the selected hyaluronic drug, as well as in the presence of the experience and qualification of the cosmetologist.
Before the procedure, you need to tell the doctor if anything disturbs you. If you hide any disease, the consequences after injections can be very deplorable.
Also, do not refer to novice specialists who do not yet have sufficient experience and can unknowingly harm your skin. Hyaluronic biorevitalization, in spite of its apparent simplicity, is a rather complex and responsible procedure, requiring, in addition, an individual approach.
