Bioreparation and biorevitalization: what's the difference?
Relentless time leads to aging, which can be partially stopped by cosmetology specialists. They offer biorevitalization and bioreparation procedures that activate the work of epidermal cells using injections with hyaluronic acid preparations. The difference between these two methods can be understood by looking at each of them in more detail.
What are skin rejuvenation procedures?
Human skin contains connective tissue (elastin and collagen) filled with hyaluronic acid. These compounds are responsible for the elasticity and elasticity of the cover. Over time, the constituent tissue breaks down and shrinks, resulting in skin “wilting”.
Bioreparation and biorevitalization are innovative methods aimed at restoring the skin. Both work on the principle of delivery of hyaluronic acid into the patient's tissue, but at the same time they have differences in the method of exposure and the final result. In the first case, the drug is administered with the addition of vitamins, proteins and amino acids, in the second, pure hyaluronic acid is used.
For those who first turn to injections of this kind, as well as for young patients, biorevitalization is suitable. Those who decide to resort to the procedure after the age of 40, as well as those who want to acquire a more lasting result, should choose bioreparation.
Bioreparation
Bioreparation is a rejuvenation procedure by introducing hyaluronic acid, proteins, amino acids and vitamins under the skin using microinjections. The injected drugs can stay in the skin for up to 20 days, nourishing cells and promoting the formation of collagen fibers.Moreover, the drug triggers the natural processes of tissue regeneration. It moisturizes and tightens the skin, strengthens the vascular system, absorbs scar tissue, and has an active antioxidant effect.
The course of procedures carried out by the bioreparation method consists of three sessions, each of which is performed at intervals of three weeks. After six months, the course can be repeated. The cosmetologist makes a more precise appointment individually, depending on the condition of the skin. Injection marks become invisible after a day, so treatment is best done on weekends.
Biorevitalization
This procedure resembles simplified bioreparation. In this case, the subcutaneous injection of hyaluronic acid is performed without any additives. The drug heals tissues in a gentle and natural way. A similar method can be used by young people for the purpose of prevention, as well as patients after forty years of age to moisturize the skin. Biorevitalization does not imply intensive rejuvenation, smoothing of deep wrinkles, but in any case, the drug activates fibroblasts responsible for the production of collagen. As a result, the skin becomes firm and fresh.
This method is suitable not only for the face, it can be used for any part of the body. The beneficial effect of the drug can be noticed immediately, but to consolidate the effect, several procedures should be undergone.
Biorevitalization is carried out in two ways: injection and laser.
- The injection method involves the introduction of the drug with a very thin needle into special areas of the skin. It can be carried out from the age of twenty-five to prevent premature aging. For young people, several procedures are enough, carried out once every six months. For patients over forty years old who want to maintain their facial skin in a natural fresh state, the cosmetologist advises the frequency and number of injections individually.
- The laser method of exposure is carried out without the use of needles. The drug is delivered to the deep subcutaneous layers by an infrared laser. The treatment is painless. About 7-10 procedures are performed, one per week. A stable result lasts from six months to a year.
Indications and contraindications
Indications for use, as well as contraindications for both procedures are the same.
Indications:
- sensitive dehydrated skin;
- decreased muscle tone;
- scars, postoperative scars;
- the formation of hyperpigmentation, rosacea;
- deep wrinkles;
- stretch marks after weight loss;
- sagging skin;
- acne.
Before carrying out the procedure, you should familiarize yourself with the contraindications, including:
- infectious skin diseases;
- diabetes;
- oncology;
- disorders of the blood clotting factor;
- viral diseases accompanied by high fever;
- herpes;
- epilepsy;
- autoimmune diseases;
- tumors;
- allergic reactions to injected drugs.
Carrying out the procedure by injection
Before the treatment, the skin is cleaned with a chlorhexidine solution. During the procedure, the thinnest needles are used, which allows you to minimize the pain of the process. However, anesthetic gel is applied before it starts. It helps to eliminate pain from needle insertion and discomfort from getting the drug under the skin.
At the next stage, a bioreparant is introduced (papular technique is used). After the introduction around the eyes, a millimeter papule is formed, in other areas of the skin - no more than two millimeters. At the end of the procedure, the skin is treated with a soothing, wound-healing cream. It protects the cover from the ingress of microorganisms.
Tissue regeneration occurs fairly quickly. In rare cases, the procedure is accompanied by edema. In the first days after injections, you should not sunbathe and use cosmetics.
The result of the action of the preparations is elastic skin and a natural complexion, smoothing of scars and deep wrinkles. Also, other problems indicated in the indications for the use of the procedure are eliminated. It should be borne in mind that hyaluronic acid reacts with decay to high temperatures, therefore, to obtain a more lasting effect, treatment is best done in spring or autumn.
Medicines for procedures
As already mentioned, the biorevitalization procedure is carried out by the method of introducing hyaluronic acid. The bioreparation technique is carried out in the same way.
It has additional functions, therefore it uses a wider drug spectrum.
- The Russian drug hyalripier-02 tightens the skin well, hyalripier-04 helps to restore tissues after the aggressive effects of unsuccessful cosmetic procedures, hyalripier-08 dissolves fatty tissue with the help of L-carnitine in problem areas of the face.
- Switzerland offers Teosyal redensiti with a good lifting effect, Teosyal MesoExpert for active toning and long-term hydration of the subcutaneous tissue.
- The preparations of South Korea and the USA Meso-Xanthin F199 stimulate the DNA of the skin integument, Meso-Wharton P199 minimizes wrinkles and removes tissue swelling.
- South Korea also produces the drug Revofil AQUASHINE, which prevents collagen breakdown, Revofil AQUASHINE BR depigments and reduces melanin synthesis.
How are the methods different?
To summarize, we can trace the difference between biorevitalization and bioreparation.
- Biorevitalization moisturizes, rehydrates the skin, and bioreparation starts self-healing processes.
- The first method uses pure hyaluronic acid, the second with active additives.
- Biorevitalization can be carried out from 25 years old, with a preventive and therapeutic purpose. Bioreparation is recommended after 40 or after 35 years with individual problems.
- Bioreparation has a more lasting effect obtained in fewer treatment sessions.
