What it is?
Biorevitalization is an injection method of administering drugs based on hyaluronic acid
Popular drugs of this type are: Juvederm HYDRATE, Restylane Vital Light, Teosyal Meso, Teosyal MesoExpert, Teosyal Pure Sense Redensity I, IAL System System), Ivor meso. These are drugs that contain only hyaluronic acid.
However, there are also combination preparations that, in addition to hyaluronic acid, contain vitamins, antioxidants, complexes of essential amino acids and peptides. These include, for example, NCTF 135, Jalupro (Yalupro), Revi (Revi).
The success of the procedure largely depends on the correctly selected drug to solve your problem. Each of the drugs has recommended protocols, but only after diagnosing the current skin condition will the doctor draw up a regimen for use.
What should you apply to your face after the procedure?
Skin restoration after the procedure depends on following many recommendations. First of all, you should be more careful about what you put on your face. You can wash your face with boiled or distilled water at room temperature. It is not recommended to use hot water, as it can lead to the formation of subcutaneous balls, “movement” of the applied drug, or disruption of the sebaceous glands.
The cleanser should not contain scratching granules, be highly alkaline or alcohol-based. Everything needs to be done very carefully. Don't rub your skin. In general, it is advisable to touch it as little as possible. After washing, the surface of the face is blotted with a towel, without active rubbing.
On the first day, you can apply Bepanten or D-Panthenol to your face. These creams will help get rid of swelling and redness, and generally improve the condition of the skin. Troxevasin or another similar drug will help remove bruises. Apply the ointment to the skin several times a day. In cases where the skin is very dry and a feeling of tightness periodically occurs, sprinkling with thermal water comes to the rescue.
You should not use oils, even those that enhance regeneration - their structure will contribute to clogging of pores and puncture sites. It is better to choose alginate and collagen masks. They will cool the skin and remove excess moisture. It is recommended to start using them after the third recovery day.
As for other salon procedures, before or after biorevitalization, you can inject drugs with botolutoxin, the most famous of which is Botox. Such injections only enhance the effect of hyaluronic acid, and the skin becomes more hydrated and rejuvenated.
Contour plastic surgery, namely the introduction of fillers, is also not prohibited. “Hyaluronic acid” moisturizes the tissue, which allows you to prepare the skin for further procedures and enhances their effect. Also, biorevitalization can be successfully combined with the installation of mesothreads. First, biorevitalization is performed, then more serious procedures, and after a couple of weeks, biorevitalization again.
However, you should not take risks by doing chemical peeling after the procedure. Aggressive procedures such as resurfacing are not recommended. The skin should rest for at least two weeks, or better yet, a month. You will also have to do without massage for 14 days so as not to injure the skin and allow it to recover. As for facial cleansing, it should be done either before the procedure or a week after it.
Cosmetologists advise refraining from plasma lifting, but not because there is danger or unnecessary stress on the skin, but because both procedures give the same result. If you get a tattoo at this time, the shape of your lips or eyes may become visually deformed after a few days.
When should you think about skin biorevitalization?
First of all, if you notice that your skin is dry and you can’t cope with it with regular care products.
This may be due to both external reasons, for example, returning from vacation, where they spent a lot of time under the sun, using inappropriate cosmetics and dry skin, and to internal reasons - changes in diet, aging processes, taking medications.
The biorevitalization procedure moisturizes the skin, improves color, and evens out its relief. The skin after the procedure becomes more elastic and smooth.
In addition, the introduction of active ingredients directly into the dermis improves metabolic processes, which has a positive effect on skin health.
This procedure is included in comprehensive protocols for reducing hyperpigmentation, treating scars and stretch marks, and anti-aging programs.
Indications for this procedure are as follows:
- dry and dehydrated skin,
- decreased tone and elasticity of the skin of the face, neck, décolleté,
- loose body skin in areas such as the hands, abdomen, knees, inner thighs and shoulders
- dull complexion
Harm and possible negative consequences
A woman seeking to restore beauty and youth to her face hardly thinks about the impact on her health of the product that is offered to her as a miracle cure. This also applies to hyaluron injections.
Most often, instead of unmodified hyaluronic acid, low molecular weight is injected under the skin. This, in a biochemical sense, is a dirty fraction that proper manufacturers throw away during the production process. It contains many impurities of streptococcal residue, and it can provoke rosacea - deformation of blood vessels and redness of the face.
Despite the fact that biorevitalization, as a method of revitalizing the skin and creating favorable conditions for its restoration, has existed on the cosmetology market for more than ten years, this procedure has its own complications. They are often associated with incorrect injection volume.
The fact is that the dermis is a dynamic system. A natural renewal process occurs in various structures of the dermis, cells are destroyed and at the same time restored. That is, the processes of catabolism and anabolism are in balance. And the main function of dermal fibroblasts is the production of hyaluronic acid, elastin, collagen and various enzymes.
Photos of possible side effects
In the photo you can see what the side effects that are possible after the procedure look like. The introduction of excess materials into the dermis can lead to imbalance and therefore unwanted overdose must be avoided.
How does this differ from contouring and mesotherapy?
Unlike contouring, the drugs used for biorevitalization do not add volume.
In contouring, denser preparations are used, they are called fillers, to add volume, for example, Juvederm Voluma for the cheekbones. And mesotherapy drugs, although they are administered in the same way as biorevitalizants, have other indications for use. For example, DMAE, to improve the shape of the face, or vitamin C for whitening and stimulating cell function.
How does the procedure work and what will I look like after it?
To reduce the pain from injections, we apply an anesthetic cream to the face for 20–30 minutes before the procedure.
Then the doctor opens a sterilely packaged syringe with the drug in front of you and injects it into the correction area. Sometimes the drug is administered papules, sometimes not, it depends both on the drug and on the problem being solved. The needle marks may be noticeable for a few days, but you can use makeup to make them invisible.
Advice from the general director of the clinic, Natalya Buzhinskaya:
“Be sure to check what is being administered to you, always and everywhere. This advice may seem strange, since you are on a page on our clinic’s website, and it may seem that I am calling for you to check the work of the doctors of our clinic. In fact, this is for your own peace of mind. When you know that you were injected not according to the doctor, but you see the drug itself, the documents for it, you worry less, even if the swelling suddenly lasts not a day, but two, and this positive attitude towards the result also matters.
In our clinic, the doctor is obliged to show you the packaging and give you a sticker with the series of the drug administered. We want you to be sure that you were given the original drug, and we provide you with all the documents for it. There is an iPAD in the lobby that has photos of all certificates and registration documents. You can ask the administrator to send you a photo of the document for the drug.
We are confident in the choice of drugs for work. We are confident in the competence of the doctor performing the procedure. And this, in general, is 99% of the success of the procedure. Why not 100%, you are probably wondering. Because there is also an individual reaction of the body to the administered drug, and although complications are extremely rare and temporary, they do occur. The swelling lasts for a long time, there may be an allergic reaction to the components of the drug, but the more carefully the doctor collects the medical history, the less likely there is to get these complications.”

You can:
- On the same day after the procedure, you can wash your face with water and a neutral cleanser, but try to touch your face less with your hands for 24 hours after the procedure. Remember that the skin’s protection is damaged by the needle; it takes a day for minor injuries to heal.
- You can wear makeup, but show your doctor what you wear. If this is a make-up with a dispenser, then there should be no problems.
- You can use your own moisturizer unless your doctor advises you to use another antiseptic. But exclude a new cream that you have never used for a week.

Why can biorevitalization give a negative reaction?
Many of us think about why some people easily tolerate biorevitalization, while others suffer from a large number of negative manifestations? There are two main factors that influence the success of the procedure:
- Professionalism of the specialist performing the injections. Violation of the technology for introducing filler under the skin is the most common cause of swelling and bruising, as well as short-term and uneven results. Pay special attention to choosing a clinic and cosmetologist.
- Irresponsibility of patients. In pursuit of a simple way to achieve young, moisturized and tightened skin, many of us do not pay attention to the characteristics of our body and do not inform specialists about the possible presence of contraindications, which leads to the most unexpected results.

Rehabilitation period
What should not be done after biorevitalization? This question interests many women who have decided on the papular rejuvenation technique with hyaluronic acid. Negative consequences after biorevitalization can occur not only through the fault of the cosmetologist. Your incorrect actions during the rehabilitation period can cause significant damage to the skin.
Cosmetologists strongly recommend:
- for the first two days after acupuncture, do not touch your face or even wash your face with water;
- refuse to visit the sauna, bathhouse and solarium;
- do not do facial massage, cleansing and other cosmetic procedures for at least two weeks;
- do not use foundation or powder until the injection wounds heal;
- Do not remove crusts at injection sites under any circumstances;
- You can’t play sports for two weeks;
- avoid prolonged sun exposure in the first week after acupuncture.
In some cases, a cosmetologist may recommend a special massage to promote proper distribution of the drug under the skin. It is possible to carry out microcurrent effects or use special masks and ointments with a calming effect (only as prescribed by a specialist).
Papules inevitably form at the injection sites, and swelling appears over the entire area of the treated area. How quickly will they disappear? After a few days, under normal circumstances, the swelling goes away. How long do papules last after biorevitalization? They go away differently for each person - within 2-7 days. This process depends on the concentration of injected collagen and the individual characteristics of the body.
The following photo shows what papules look like.
Given the possible side effects and the healing time of papules, we recommend that you take a vacation or time off. After the wounds disappear, you will immediately notice an improvement in the condition of the skin. The course of biorevitalization consists of 3–4 procedures with an interval of 2 weeks.
Some cosmetics for washing, in particular alcohol-based soaps and lotions, can injure skin damaged during biorevitalization. Review your diet towards low-calorie foods, which the body will not need to spend too much energy to process. Try to add as little salt to your food as possible. This simple technique will help avoid severe swelling.
Some patients ask whether they can drink alcohol. Cosmetologists strongly recommend that you stop drinking alcoholic beverages in the first 3 days.
Patient comment
The face has become completely different!
Inflammations are rare, associated with the cycle and to a lesser extent. The skin has become smoother and tighter and less shiny. This season I plan to repeat Fraxel. And in general, I have become more attentive to myself, to my diet, and I hope to quit smoking. Show all reviews (3)
