Research in the field of cosmetology does not stand still; every year more and more procedures appear to prolong the youth of the skin. One of the most popular in women recently is biorevitalization. The slowing down of skin regeneration processes can be noticed already after 25 years; at this age, the skin’s own production of hyaluronic acid disappears. In addition to age-related changes, external environmental factors, unhealthy diet, heredity, have a negative effect on the skin. The main area in which changes are noticeable in even young women is the area around the eyes. That is why the biorevitalization of this area is the most popular.
What is biorevitalization?
The preparation for biorevitalization consists of hyaluronic acid, peptide and vitamin complexes, as well as epidermal growth factor. All this combination of the strongest anti-aging remedies literally stops cell aging, enhances the regenerating properties of the skin, and the cells can again divide at the speed of the young.
After the use of drugs for biorevitalization, the natural processes of cell regeneration are activated, which allows the skin to self-regulate for a while.
The role of hyaluronic acid is difficult not to assess, it helps to retain moisture in the skin cells, is responsible for the production of collagen and elastin by the body, responsible for the elasticity of the skin. The use of hyaluronic acid allows you to make your face smooth in a natural way. But external agents with hyaluronic acid in the composition can not penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and act only on its surface. That is why biorevitalization is carried out by injecting a drug based on this substance into the deep layers of the dermis.
From the point of view of injection zones, this procedure is universal. You can perform biorevitalization on any problem area, whether it be hands, hair part of the head or even thin skin on the area around the eyes. Drugs injected during the procedure are synthetic, so the probability of rejection is small. For successful delivery of the agent to the deeper layers of the skin, laser irradiation is additionally used.
Differences between mesotherapy and biorevitalization
In addition to biorevitalization, one of the popular and similar procedures is mesotherapy. It is also carried out by injection method, so 2 procedures are often confused.
There are several major differences.
- Sessions in the course of mesotherapy are held more frequently than in biorevitalization. It is necessary to maintain the effect and for preventive purposes.
- The duration of the effect after biorevitalization is very individual, depending on the condition of the skin and the age of the patient, this figure ranges from six months to 2-3 years. The effect of mesotherapy lasts about six months, after which prevention is needed.
- Biorevitalization gives results faster, mesotherapy - holds it longer.
- During biorevitalization procedures, a drug based on hyaluronic acid is injected, which triggers natural metabolic processes in the skin. Mesotherapy injections contain vitamins and microelements.
- Mesotherapy injections are injected under the skin more deeply than with biorevitalization, as well as with greater frequency.
The optimal choice in favor of one of these procedures can be selected only by a qualified cosmetologist.
Indications for biorevitalization of the area around the eyes
By what signs can one understand that you need a biorevitalization procedure? First of all, the skin condition can be assessed only by a competent cosmetologist, who can prescribe the correct number of procedures for the areas of your body that you need.
The cosmetologist assesses the skin around the eyes according to the following parameters:
- presence of mimic wrinkles;
- the presence of puffiness;
- overhang and flabby eyelids;
- the presence of "crows feet";
- severity of pigmentation;
- couperose;
- bruises, circles and bags under the eyes.
With regard to age, after which the use of biorevitalization is possible - the boundary is 25 years.
After this age, focusing on the condition of the skin, it is possible to carry out procedures aimed at preventing premature aging.
Contraindications
The biorevitalization procedure has a number of contraindications:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- intolerance to hyaluronic acid or other components of the drug;
- oncological diseases;
- herpes in the period of exacerbation;
- the formation of hypertrophic scars;
- problems with blood clotting;
- phase of exacerbation of any chronic diseases;
- laser tolerance problems;
- diabetes;
- dermatological diseases of the procedure area;
- endocrinological diseases.
Methods of biorevitalization
The biorevitalization procedure can be carried out in one of two ways - injection or non-injection. Injection drug administration - a more radical method compared with the second. The points of administration are determined by the cosmetologist before the procedure, depending on the problem areas. As for the recommendations, on the day of the procedure it is desirable to reduce the amount of fluid consumed, in order to subsequently reduce the severity of edema after injection. You can also not apply makeup before going to the beauty parlor, as you still have to remove makeup before the procedure.
At your request, the beautician can apply local anesthetics based on lidocaine. The drug will be injected with a microscopic needle with micro doses. The syringe and needle for insertion must be completely new, sterile and carefully packaged.
After carrying out the procedure for several days, you will need to follow a number of skin care recommendations:
- Do not apply cosmetics for 6-8 hours after the procedure, to allow the skin to calm down;
- for 2 weeks to exclude exposure to ultraviolet rays;
- for 1 week bath, sauna, swimming pool are excluded;
- 2 days do not take a hot shower and bath.
Injecting biorevitalization courses are rather short, usually 1-2 visits to a cosmetologist are sufficient.
A non-injection biorevitalization technique is performed without skin perforation. Special glasses are used to protect your eyes from exposure to laser beams. First, the skin is treated with pulsed laser radiation in order to open the channels leading to the deeper layers of the skin. Gel with hyaluronic acid in the composition is applied to problem areas. Further, the necessary area of the skin is again processed by laser radiation. It transports hyaluronic acid molecules to the epidermis. The balances are removed by a beautician and applies a nourishing mask.
The effect is noticeable after two procedures, but the cosmetologist can prescribe a longer course of application of biorevitalization for up to 10 times. This method is used for minor skin changes, the procedure itself is absolutely painless and safe.
Side effects after biorevitalization
After injectable biorevitalization, side effects can be noticed:
- the occurrence of papules is a small swelling in the puncture site;
- bruises;
- swelling of the eyes.
In order to get rid of these unpleasant phenomena, no special means are needed, they will disappear. You can only give advice - use less fluid, eat less salty and spicy foods and limit alcohol intake.
These recommendations will help speed recovery after the procedure.
