Biorevitalization: how many procedures need to be done
Biorevitalization: duration of the course of rejuvenating procedures
There is nothing more natural than every woman’s desire to look younger than her biological age.
Modern cosmetology offers her many ways to chase the slipping time. One of them is biorevitalization - an innovative method of rejuvenation using natural means. It is used no earlier than 35 years, since until this age the skin retains high compensatory capabilities for producing the required amount of its own hyaluronic acid (HA). By the age of 35, reserves are depleted, and the time for biorevitalization comes. The introduction of hyaluronic acid, the most important natural component of the dermis, under the skin not only gives stunning visual results, but also changes the very structure of the skin, making it a worthy replacement for plastic surgery. It is necessary to evaluate the effect of biorevitalization in parts. In the first hours we see a quick result of the procedure: smoothing of wrinkles. A couple of weeks after biorevitalization, when the cells begin to produce their own hyaluronic acid, a delayed effect occurs - complete restoration of the skin.
To obtain the “soft filler” effect, it is sufficient to use preparations with a hyaluronic acid concentration of more than 1.5%. The amount of necessary hyaluronic “top-ups” is determined by the doctor, based on the patient’s age and the condition of his skin. Typically, these are three to five procedures.
Rejuvenation mechanism
Baby's skin is velvety and soft by nature. These qualities are provided by hyaluronic acid, which controls the water balance of the dermis. This is a hydrocolloid that can not only moisturize, but create conditions for the normal functioning of all components of the skin after biorevitalization: maintain a protective water-lipid film on the surface of the epidermis, activate fibroblasts, the synthesis of collagen and elastin, guarantee the regenerative abilities of the cell, and maintain its energy balance.
With age, under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, background radiation, natural disasters, stress, and poor nutrition, the dermis loses moisture. Hyaluronic acid, attracting water to itself, compensates for losses, but over time, internal reserves become depleted. To keep the skin young, HA is administered externally. It does not biodegrade immediately, but lingers in the body for quite a long time. While such a “crossed” HA is present under the skin in the laboratory, it:
- Moisturizes the dermis (about 500 water molecules are fixed on 1 HA molecule).
- Restores intercellular communication between the epidermis and subepidermal layers.
- Activates fibroblasts, protein synthesis, collagen, elastin, increases skin elasticity and its ability to regenerate.
- Stimulates angiogenesis, potentiates the bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects of substances entering the skin from the outside.
- Helps remove free radicals, rejuvenating the skin.
The visual effect of aging replacement therapy is that:
- Superficial skin folds disappear after biorevitalization, deep ones are smoothed out.
- The skin regains lost firmness and elasticity and becomes velvety.
- As a result of normalization of blood recirculation, the shade of the dermis becomes a soft flesh color and pigmentation disappears.
- The listing effect appears, the contours of the face are drawn.
Types of biorevitalization: how many procedures need to be done
Cosmetologists know two ways to introduce HA under the skin:
- Injection, when hyaluronic acid is injected into the dermis pointwise, at the end of a needle, therefore it has a small area of influence and requires multiple repetitions. In this case, the structure of the acid remains as identical as possible to the dermis’ own HA. Immediately after the procedure, marks from needles and papules are visible, which resolve on their own, but require compliance with the rules of the rehabilitation period. The procedure is carried out once a month, which saves money compared to other similar methods. Five or three procedures are enough for a course.
- Hardware-based, when hyaluronic acid penetrates the skin from a special gel under the influence of infrared rays. It partially changes its structure, becomes pigmented and dehydrated, which helps open chromosomes - skin transport channels, and create a HA depot. The impact area is extensive. The procedure is painless, has virtually no side effects, the results are visible immediately, and is more long-lasting (up to six months) and effective. The course consists of six to ten procedures at intervals of one to three sessions per week.
There is another gradation of types of procedure:
- For the purpose of prevention, when the manipulation is aimed at eliminating the water imbalance of the dermis with hyaluronic acid. As a rule, such a course consists of two sessions, with an interval of 3-4 weeks. As a result: the process of skin aging slows down. Similar prophylaxis is used for the skin of the face, lips, and hands.
- The treatment uses hyaluronic acid, which can restore already withered skin. The meaning of the procedure is the introduction of anta hydrate into the deep layers of the dermis. The doctor decides how many sessions are needed for such a restoration. Typically, the course consists of three to five sessions at intervals of a month.
Due to the fact that mesotherapy, based on the introduction of vitamins and microelements under the skin, is also called “beauty injections,” it is necessary to distinguish between these procedures, their purpose, and results. Mesotherapy is possible after 25 years, while this age is taboo for biorevitalization.
Indications
Biorevitalization is most often prescribed in cosmetology if:
- The patient's skin is dry and requires a “sip of water.”
- Reduced skin turgor.
- Pigment spots appear.
- It is necessary to correct scar changes and post-operative skin defects.
- It is necessary to restore the skin after excessive ultraviolet irradiation (natural, artificial).
- It is necessary to eliminate the consequences of laser resurfacing, chemical peeling, and other hardware procedures.
Contraindications
Not a single cosmetic procedure is complete without restrictions. Biorevitalization is not carried out if:
- In the area of the planned intervention there is inflammation, herpetic eruptions, dermatoses, and keloid.
- The patient suffers from chronic somatic diseases or autoimmune diseases.
- There is an allergic predisposition of the body or individual intolerance to GC drugs.
- The patient is breastfeeding or pregnant.
- The patient is prescribed anticoagulant drugs (they reduce blood clotting).
- High temperature of unknown origin, ARVI, ARI.
- Tumor processes (benign, malignant).
Carrying out the procedure
Injections of HA carry out its dosed and targeted delivery to the skin. The injection site is first disinfected. If the patient has an increased pain threshold, the skin is treated with an anesthetic. But usually the procedure does not cause pain.
Inside the dermis, water molecules attach to HA and are assimilated by cells. Moisture stimulates tissue restoration. The essence of the procedure is to trigger the synthesis of your own HA, which leads to the activation of collagen and elastin, optimization of water balance, and restores skin elasticity. To consolidate the effect, the procedure is repeated.
Hardware biorevitalization involves intensive exposure to the problem area simultaneously with several radiation sources. In this case, the maximum effect is achieved in a minimum time. The procedure does not require any preliminary preparation, is safe, combines treatment of the skin with infrared rays and the promotion of a gel with HA into the dermis. The restoration sequence is identical to the injection technique.
Biorevitalization gels
Hyaluronic acid is considered the best biorevitalizant. But today, drugs are popular in which it is the base, and vitamins, minerals, amino acids, peptide chains and even growth factors are added to it. The composition of the drugs determines their capabilities and safety, the choice is made by the doctor
The IAL System is considered the “gold standard” of gels in this group due to the almost complete identity of its hyaluronic acid and HA, synthesized by the human body. This guarantees the procedure is hypoallergenic and effective. Usually two drugs are used at once: with stable and unstable HA. The combination of gels allows, in addition to restoring skin turgor and facial contours, to reduce the production of sebum (sebum)
The latest generation Austrian gel Princess Rich is the drug of choice for gel contouring. It contains HA, obtained using the innovative “SMART” technology, with the addition of glycerin, which potentiates its properties. This will prolong the result up to six months.
Gel from Switzerland Teosyal Redensity contains amino acids that stimulate collagen production, trace elements, antioxidants and vitamin B6, which promotes regeneration. It has a mild effect and is very effective.
Russian gel Repleri is a biodegradant of stabilized HA, which has excellent plasticity, safety, and long-lasting results.
Viscoderm is a group of monopreparations. Contains hyaluronic acid in increasing concentrations. The minimum concentration (0.8%) is used exclusively to smooth out crow's feet and other fine wrinkles of dry skin. Hyaluronic acid in a concentration of 1.8% - in the very first stages of aging (35-40 years) or when preparing the skin for surgical plastic surgery or hardware procedures. 2% hyaluronic acid is used to deeply moisturize thick skin over forty years old. (RestylaneVital also works).
Italian-made Skin R is a newcomer to the service market, but has managed to prove itself from the best side. Contains 2% hyaluronic acid, amino acids that stimulate protein synthesis, a carbonate buffer that normalizes pH and prolongs the effect of the gel. Shows high antioxidant protection and is used as a lifting agent.
Chinese cosmetic companies offer Hafiller Aqua gels with unstable HA of increasing concentration (from 14 to 30 mg/l), restoring microcirculation and moisture balance in problem areas. Used until old age.
The Americans created Mezovarton and Mesoxanthin - the latest generation gels with HA and active additives (up to 50 ingredients). The meaning of the effect is based on the stimulating effect of stem cells. It is so gentle and safe that in the USA it is recommended from the age of 20. However, our experts recommend it only after 40.
Possible complications
If we talk about complications, then there are two sides of the same coin: side effects dependent and independent of the doctor and the patient.
The first group includes:
- Unprofessionalism of the doctor.
- Lack of proper examination.
- Ignoring advice from related specialists.
- Irresponsibility of patients (hiding data about their health).
The second group includes unforeseen circumstances: there are no contraindications, the gel was chosen correctly, and side effects were the result of an individual reaction to its components. Most often, sensitive skin reacts this way, so biorevitalization is not always the procedure of choice for it. If complications arise, they are so serious that they deserve special attention. There are mild, moderate and severe reactions to the procedure, immediate and delayed complications.
The first group includes the following side effects and complications:
- Vascular embolism (tissue necrosis). Eliminated by timely administration of hyaluronidase, which breaks down hyaluronic acid.
- Artificial “vitiligo”, depigmentation.
- Hematomas.
The second group includes:
- Loss of sensation.
- Subcutaneous seals.
- Keloid.
- Inflammation.
- Local autoimmune reaction.
To avoid unpleasant situations, you should first make sure of the qualifications of the doctor to whom you entrust your face. Modern cosmetology is personalized. Almost every salon offers similar procedures, but it is not so easy to find a responsible professional doctor. Therefore, “your own” cosmetologist is not an empty phrase, but an urgent necessity.
For or against?
There is no doubt that biorevitalization:
- Gives maximum improvement in appearance in minimal time.
- It has affordable prices and a wide age range.
- Uses almost natural leather ingredients.
On the other side:
- In rare cases, a decrease in endogenous (independent) production of natural HA by the skin leads to the need for a constant supply of gel to the dermis.
- It is necessary to take into account the invasiveness of the procedure, as well as the dependence of the result on the qualifications of the cosmetologist.
You can learn more about biorevitalization and receive individual recommendations regarding the duration of the course of anti-aging procedures at a consultation with a medical cosmetologist (Moscow).
Cost of laser biorevitalization of the face and rules for choosing a clinic
Although laser biorevitalization of facial skin with hyaluronic acid is quite simple, it can nevertheless be carried out only with certain skills and following all the rules. In order for the result to be satisfactory, a number of conditions must be taken into account:
- Choose a specialized clinic (salon) with modern equipment.
- The specialist who will carry out the procedure must have relevant experience, documented, as well as examples of work with photos and customer reviews of laser biorevitalization performed by him.
- The gel that is used for such rejuvenation must be of high quality, purchased from official suppliers, and be in industrial packaging.
Be sure to ask how popular the clinic (salon) is, what its reputation is, and what reviews they leave about it. You shouldn’t go to the first one you come across; it’s better to compare several institutions and only then make a choice.
Prices for laser facial biorevitalization vary depending on the treatment area. One procedure can cost 2,500–12,000 rubles. This amount is enough for a lasting and noticeable effect.

Beneficial features
When a dermatologist injects hyaluronic acid into a patient's skin, the cells experience a slight stress. The injections force them to actively produce collagen, a protein that provides elasticity to tissues in the human body.
Many people believe that “beauty injections” make wrinkles disappear on the face and body. Unfortunately, it is not. The creases do not disappear completely, but they are almost invisible after a course of sessions.
Usually it is necessary to carry out at least 3 sessions so that enough hyaluronic acid accumulates in the skin tissue. The results from the course last for about six months. To maintain the effect, you should additionally visit a dermatology office once every 3 months.
The technology is used not only to restore the face, but also to accelerate hair growth or rejuvenate the body. After introducing the drug into the scalp, it becomes less oily, dandruff stops appearing, and the hair grows healthier and stronger. After a course of injections, stretch marks and age spots on the body are reduced, and the water balance is evened out.
