Lip biorevitalization is a popular injection technique necessary to get rid of fine wrinkles and other aesthetic defects in the perioral area.
Throughout human life, it is the lips that are the most mobile part of the face. When expressing any emotions, one way or another, the muscles around the mouth are involved.
In this area, the skin is especially thin, unprotected from negative external factors, so it quickly fades, loses elasticity and moisture. But biorevitalization can help improve the appearance of this area.
What it is
Lip biorevitalization is the process of filling skin cells with hyaluronic acid. The molecules of this component attract moisture particles, accelerate intracellular metabolic processes and stimulate the synthesis of natural collagen.
Do not confuse biorevitalization with lip augmentation. These are completely different procedures. After biorevitalization, patients note a slight increase in volume, but the main role of the procedure is hydration and launching the mechanism of natural restoration of elasticity and skin tone. The lip augmentation procedure, in turn, is based on the introduction of fillers that will correct the shape, make them larger in volume, but will not affect intracellular processes.
Note! The composition of the drug used for biorevitalization may also include vitamin and mineral supplements, amino acids, and antioxidants. They enhance the effectiveness of the procedure, promote healing and improve the quality of the skin.
In a beauty salon (beauty and health center, specialized clinic) you can be offered injection biorevitalization of lips and non-injection.
Injection biorevitalization involves administering the drug using thin needles (cannulas, Labelle needles) directly into the “center” of the problem. This method is effective, accurate, but painful and can lead to unpleasant complications (for example, causing suppuration of puncture sites, swelling and hematomas).
The procedure for performing a non-injection procedure is noticeably different.
A preparation containing hyaluronic acid is applied to the problem area and, using a laser, directed air flow under pressure or ultrasound, stimulates the penetration of the substance into the deep layers of the skin. This method eliminates damage to the upper layers of the skin, so there is no risk of infection, and it takes 2-3 days for the skin to fully recover after exposure. Laser biorevitalization is especially popular in matters of rejuvenation, but its cost is rather high and the list of contraindications is impressive.
Smoothness and volume
Lifting Lip Booster, Doctor Babor
- Promises: lifting, wrinkle correction, skin smoothing, volume increase, clearer lip contour.
- Contains: hyaluronic acid, peptide.
The first thing you will notice is the smoothness. The skin of the lips will become smooth, fine wrinkles will decrease. The product has a cumulative effect, which becomes more pronounced over time.
The cream is very comfortable: it has no taste or smell, leaves a light protective film that is not felt, but removes dryness. Lipstick, even the most capricious (for me it’s almost any matte) applies smoothly.
And a very convenient applicator! I sometimes get carried away and freeze for a few minutes during a massage. And this bears fruit: the color of the lips becomes brighter, the lips themselves become fuller. And immediately, and not in the vague distant future.

Age problems
Biorevitalization applies to patients after 25–30 years , when the ability of skin cells to self-renewal begins to weaken, the tone and elasticity of tissues decreases. The main reason for this is a decrease in the production of one’s own hyaluronic acid, proteins that are responsible for the quality and elasticity of the skin.
Age, insufficient facial care against the background of aggressive exposure to external environmental factors (wind, cold, heat, salt water) contribute to this.
After 30–35 years, patients may experience a loss of symmetry and natural volume of the lips, they become thinner, and the first vertical (purse-string) wrinkles appear. At this age, the nasolabial folds deepen, which additionally draws attention to the problem area.
To correct external defects of the nasolabial area and prevent early fading of youth and skin elasticity, cosmetologists recommend simple but effective and relatively safe biorevitalization.
Attention! The biorevitalization procedure is one of the universal rejuvenation techniques. It is performed to eliminate problems in the eyes, forehead, neck, décolleté and the entire face.
How to determine the frequency and number of injections required for results?
The number of sessions that can provide long-term results is determined by age, the depth of the problem and the task at hand. On average, a repeat course should be carried out after 7-10 months. Corrective measures will help prolong the rejuvenation effect.
Reviews of hyaluronic acid injections from those who have already used this facial procedure contain the following recommendations:
- as a preventive measure, for women under 35 years of age, it is enough to carry out biorevitalization once a year in order to delay the appearance of signs of wilting;
- after 35 years, the procedure is already therapeutic in nature and requires corrective measures 2 times a year;
- For women with obvious signs of aging, it is possible to improve their condition if they do injections 3-4 times a year.
There is an opinion that too frequent use has a negative effect on the body’s production of its own hyaluronic acid, and provokes an accelerated appearance of age-related changes.
Indications for use
Biorevitalization of lips is recommended if the following problems exist:
- shallow purse-string wrinkles along the contour of the lips, provoked by active facial expressions or age-related changes;
- cracks, increased dryness of the skin;
- drooping corners of the mouth;
- deepening of nasolabial folds due to age-related ptosis;
- decreased tissue tone and elasticity;
- asymmetry, lip disproportion;
- lifeless, faded lip color.
In addition, the procedure is indicated for the prevention of early aging or as a way to make lips fuller and more attractive, and to correct their contour.
The optimal age to start biorevitalization is 25–30 years. At the age of 25, it is recommended to perform one-time preventive sessions, and after 30–35, cosmetologists insist on a full course of procedures. This is the only way you can eliminate visible age-related imperfections, refresh and rejuvenate your skin, and slow down the rate of aging. In a word, to achieve a more lasting and noticeable effect, one procedure is not enough.
Earlier administration of the drug is individual in nature and is discussed in the cosmetologist's office, but the patient's age is less than 18 years old.
Efficiency of the technique
The first positive changes in appearance are noticeable immediately after the procedure, but cosmetologists do not recommend stopping there. To eliminate problems as much as possible and consolidate the achieved effect, you should complete a course of biorevitalization.
The effectiveness of the service depends on several factors: the quality and composition of the drug used (biorevitalizant), the skills and professionalism of the cosmetologist, as well as the individual characteristics of the patient’s skin.
The proposed method guarantees:
- intensive skin hydration and restoration of the mechanism of natural hydration and renewal;
- partial and complete elimination of existing wrinkles around the lips;
- smoothing nasolabial folds;
- increasing the tone and elasticity of tissues;
- contour correction;
- slight increase in lip volume and fullness;
- improvement of color, the procedure allows you to return a healthy, juicy shade of lips.
You should not expect an impressive increase in fullness from the procedure; the effect is only mild. To achieve greater results, biorevitalization is performed in a course, the interval between sessions is up to 3 weeks. This method of correcting the shape and volume of the lips is temporary - the hyaluronic acid gradually dissolves, and the excess volume seems to “melt”. In addition, biorevitalizants practically do not cause allergic reactions and are not rejected by tissues, like some fillers.
For those with deep wrinkles, biorevitalization is not a panacea. Many patients do not understand this and expect results like after contouring. The introduced acid molecules attract water into the skin cells, accelerate internal processes and activate the tissue self-renewal mechanism. After the procedure, due to moisturizing, the skin becomes soft, more delicate, existing imperfections are partially smoothed out, but it is impossible to completely solve deep age-related imperfections.
Food and comfort
Moisturizing and soothing rich lip cream Arctic Hydra Care, Lumene
- Promises: to nourish, restore, prevent dehydration and dryness.
- Contains: vegetable oils of blueberry and oat seeds, betaine and northern seaweed.
If your lips are chapped, dry, or you bit them out of nerves, you are unlikely to appreciate the volume of the cream due to the cayenne pepper or menthol in the composition.
But what about comfort and protection? But at the same time without a sticky pancake on the lips, right? Lumene seems to have gone to great lengths to create a product that meets these exact requirements. And they did it :)
A small tube is convenient to throw into your cosmetic bag. The cream nourishes, protects, does not sting, smells neutral and has no taste. The primer, however, is not very good - you must first let the product absorb, or better yet, massage it in with your finger for speed.
By the way, this tube was eventually taken away from me by a child. Sometimes his lips get cracked from dryness, but he hasn’t been able to persuade him to smear himself with all sorts of hygiene products (even those specially-designed for tough guys, like Facial Fuel No-Shine Moisturizing Lip Balm, Kiehl’s ) before. And this one suited him perfectly.

The company offers several options for biorevitalizants, in particular, Filorga MH-10 for young skin and MH-18 with glycerin for patients over 30 years of age.
When choosing a drug, the cosmetologist is based on personal experience, and also takes into account the patient’s age and the degree of skin problems. It is not allowed to use drugs that have not passed certification or that have expired - this is unsafe for the client’s health.
Before performing the procedure, the cosmetologist opens the package of the drug in front of the patient. After the procedure, the patient is advised to keep one label.
Advice. Choose only experienced, first-class cosmetologists, because doctors’ mistakes are the main cause of complications after the procedure. Don’t forget to ask for reviews about the clinic and the specialist, and also study in detail the information about the drug used (validity period, availability of a quality certificate, contraindications).
On what areas of the face are injections used?
There is a large list of places suitable for injecting hyaluronic acid. The specific areas for each will be determined by the cosmetologist. He will choose the method of influence and the number of sessions.
Lips
You can increase the volume of your lips with hyaluronic acid.
There are 2 approaches to performing the procedure.
- Medium density fillers will create volume and a clear contour.
- Mesotherapy will give moisture and a fresh pink color.
It will take several sessions to get beautifully shaped lips.
The achieved effect lasts for 6 months.
Nasolabial folds
This area is very sensitive to age-related changes, so it is one of the first to be corrected. Injections of hyaluronic acid are given in the place where there is retraction of the skin or under a fold to fill the missing volume. Purpose of the procedure:
- enhance collagen production;
- fill the fold area;
- achieve hydration and smooth out wrinkles.
After the injection, a light massage is performed to help distribute the gel evenly.
The effect lasts for a period of 10 to 12 months. During this time, the skin will be renewed several times, and the folds will become less pronounced. Repeated correction is carried out in smaller doses. Gradually, it is possible to remove nasolabial folds of varying depths.
At the same time, displacement is observed on the cheekbones and cheeks, so a comprehensive solution to the problem will be required.
At the first stage, the areas are strengthened with a high-density gel, and the folds in the nasolabial area are filled with a softer composition.
Forehead
Injecting hyaluronic acid under the skin will help smooth out wrinkles on the forehead. The gel composition fills the space and evens out the skin in the problem area. Preparations of different densities are selected depending on the location of the site.
It will take 2 days to recover. During this time the swelling will go away. The result will last from 1 to 1.5 years.
The effect of biorevitalization of the face in the forehead area is immediately noticeable, which is confirmed by reviews and photos of women who have undergone the procedure. It is believed that the sooner you start fighting expression lines, the faster you can get rid of them.
Eyebrow wrinkles
This type of folds is often found in overly emotional people. If wrinkles no longer disappear at rest, then it’s time to carry out correction.
To fill the furrows, a composition with hyaluronic acid is injected under the folds. A high-density drug is used. It helps lift the skin in the center of the crease and smooth it out. The procedure is repeated after 6-12 months. In some cases, it is supplemented with botulinum therapy, which allows you to completely get rid of the problem for a longer time.
Crow's feet
It is very easy to get unsightly changes in the form of a network of wrinkles in the corners of the eyes. The constant habit of squinting from bright light and wind can create a problem even at a young age. Those with thin, dry skin are especially susceptible to it.
Injecting fillers with hyaluronic acid will help get rid of crow's feet. Once inside, it straightens the skin in the eye area and intensively moisturizes the dermis. By enhancing the production of collagen and elastin, the effect lasts throughout the year. The active substance gradually disintegrates and replenishes moisture reserves. However, the presence of “bags” under the eyes does not allow injections of hyaluronic acid for the face in this area, so judging by the reviews, the problem of swelling is getting worse.
Cheekbones
The introduction of fillers with hyaluronic acid can solve several problems in this area.
- Smooth out wrinkles at the bottom.
- Slow down age-related changes.
- Give rounded shapes.
- Raise the folds.
The voids are filled with a composition characterized by increased density, which allows you to maintain the achieved result from 6 to 12 months. Repeated correction is carried out at intervals of 1.5-2 years. The effect will be fully manifested after the swelling subsides.
Perioral wrinkles
This type of change also has another name - lip wrinkles. They are formed as a result of excessive facial stress in the lip area. Heavy smokers and those who like to crack sunflower seeds are especially affected.
If most muscles are attached to the bones, then in this area the dermis serves as the basis. The lack of fat contributes to the development of the problem.
Fine wrinkles can be successfully corrected with filler with medium or high density hyaluronic acid.
Cheeks
Sagging cheeks can be corrected by biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid. After the procedure, the facial contour will become much clearer.
The correction has 2 goals.
- Eliminate wrinkles. To do this, the filler is injected directly into the problem area.
- A composition with high or medium density will add volume to the cheeks. It is injected into the cheeks in several stages, starting with a dose of 2 ml. This approach allows you to avoid unnatural changes in facial expressions.
In the cheek area, the effect can last from one and a half to two years.
Wrinkles at the corners of the mouth
Injections of hyaluronic acid are designed to lift the corners of the mouth and smooth out wrinkles. The result of the procedure will last from 3 months to six months. The effect was noticed immediately. The gel fills wrinkles and instantly evens out the relief, thanks to the formation of a kind of frame. It is important to entrust the procedure to a professional to avoid distortion of facial expressions. A medium-density product is injected slightly below the wrinkles to create a kind of pad. With its help, the sad expression on your face disappears for a long time.
Lip contour
Injections with hyaluronic acid will help create the perfect contour. The filler is administered in microdoses strictly along the extreme line of the lips. The procedure does not change natural features and volumes. At the same time, small wrinkles are smoothed out and the corners of the lips are raised. The effect lasts up to 12 months due to the slow resorption of the drug.
Puppet wrinkles
This type of wrinkle is formed as a result of thinning of the fat layer and drooping of the soft tissues around the age of 35. Injections can smooth out or completely correct the situation if you address the problem when the first signs appear.
For these purposes, high-density compositions are selected. However, the older the client, the more often correction is required. For people over 55 years of age, it is better to have a facelift surgically.
Is preparation necessary for the procedure?
As a rule, biorevitalization does not require special preparation. First of all, visit a cosmetologist. During the consultation, the doctor will examine the skin, ask about allergic reactions, inquire about the results of previously performed cosmetic procedures, select a drug, the method of its administration and set a date for biorevitalization. In addition, the patient must sign consent for the upcoming procedure.
2 weeks before biorevitalization, give up alcoholic beverages and smoking.
It is not allowed to carry out a cosmetic procedure immediately after chemical peeling or laser resurfacing; give the skin time to recover from the stress it has suffered. The cosmetologist sets the deadlines individually, having studied the condition of the integument.
Particular attention is also paid to recent herpes outbreaks. In some cases, it is recommended to take antiherpes drugs to eliminate the risk of exacerbation of the disease after biorevitalization.
Avoid performing the procedure during menstruation - hormonal fluctuations may affect the final result.
Protocol
Modern cosmetology offers several options for lip biorevitalization: injection and needle-free; the schemes and order of their implementation vary. Let's consider the protocol for performing injection and laser procedures.
Injection method
The injection method of enriching the skin with hyaluronic acid molecules is widely popular among patients and cosmetologists. It allows you to purposefully influence the problem, delivering an important composition directly to its “hearth”.
Carrying out biorevitalization of the skin of the lips involves the following procedure:
- Cleanses the skin of makeup residues, dust particles and fat.
- To reduce pain, an anesthetic gel (cream) is applied to the area around the lips. To enhance the analgesic effect, a film is placed on top. The drug is left for half an hour. After a while, the remaining gel is removed, and the surface is wiped with Chlorhexidine or another anesthetic.
- At the next stage, injections are performed with the selected biorevitalizant. The drug is administered in doses, in the same amount, so as not to cause asymmetry.
- When a cosmetologist is tasked with correcting the outline of the lips, the injections are performed intradermally. For those who are planning to increase the volume, the drug is injected under the dry mucous membrane of the lips, injections are made very often.
- You can lift the drooping corners of the mouth by introducing a biorevitalizant using a fan-shaped technique or by forming a mesh of linear channels in the problem area. The pattern and depth of injections are selected by the cosmetologist taking into account the wishes of the patient, the expected final result and an analysis of existing shortcomings.
- After injection, the affected area is wiped with anesthetic. To evenly distribute the biorevitalizant inside the skin, the cosmetologist can use a light massage.
- Finally, dry ice is applied to the lips and area around the mouth. This will reduce the chances of hematomas and swelling after the procedure.
In general, lip biorevitalization with anesthesia takes 40–50 minutes.
Biorevitalization with laser
Laser biorevitalization is recognized as an effective rejuvenating procedure. The secret of its effectiveness lies not only in the active components of the biorevitalizant, but also in the thermal effect created by the laser inside the skin.
The procedure algorithm is as follows:
- The skin of the lips and around the mouth is cleaned and wiped with an anesthetic.
- The problem area is treated for some time with pulsed laser beams. This allows you to “loose” the skin, guaranteeing a more pronounced effect.
- Then a gel-like biorevitalizant is applied to the surface in an even layer.
- The laser is applied to the skin again. In this case, the laser beam serves as a conductor of the drug into the deep layers of the integument. Wrinkles and nasolabial folds are worked on several times.
- At the end, the cosmetologist wipes the surface with an anesthetic and applies a cream with a calming effect.
On average, the procedure takes 30 minutes. The duration of exposure depends on the degree of the skin problem and the professionalism of the cosmetologist.
conclusions
The problem of skin dehydration today is solved in various ways, and a cosmetologist can vary and combine procedures to achieve truly impressive results. But new products appearing in aesthetic medicine increasingly provide excellent results on their own. To determine the optimal method for correcting age-related changes, you should attend an in-person consultation.

Skin moisturizing: is it that simple?
Deep moisturizing of the skin using “mass” and “middle” category cosmetics is virtually impossible. For effective operation of creams in this segment, certain conditions are required - first of all, optimal humidity and air temperature. Using them in the winter or in conditions of constant air conditioning, you can get the opposite effect. In other cases, hydration is possible, but superficial, which will not protect against the formation of wrinkles, pastiness, sagging and other typical consequences of dehydration.
Healing period
After a needle-free procedure, the healing process is silent, because the upper layer of the epidermis has not been damaged. As for injectable biorevitalization, the appearance of hematomas, slight swelling and increased sensitivity of the treated area is considered normal. Accordingly, the rehabilitation period after this method requires compliance with all rules of care.
To support the skin after treatment and speed up the healing process, cosmetologists strongly recommend adhering to the following rules:
- on the first day, refuse hot and cold foods;
- Avoid touching the injection area with your hands for the first 4 days, except when applying medications prescribed by your doctor;
- forget about massage, self-medication, trying to relieve swelling, hematomas;
- do not use decorative cosmetics until the skin is completely restored (at least 2 weeks);
- give preference to natural, high-quality facial care cosmetics;
- do not visit the swimming pool, solarium, baths and saunas, avoid sunbathing and tanning for the first 2–3 weeks;
- chemical peelings, facial physiotherapy and a number of other cosmetic services should be postponed for a while;
- pay attention to your diet, supplement your diet with vitamin foods, eliminate alcohol;
- sports and heavy physical activity cause sweating and can cause infection of injection sites, so they should also be postponed;
- when going outside, do not forget to treat the area around your mouth with sunscreen;
- do not smoke.
On average, restoration of the lips and the area around them should be expected after laser therapy - in 3-5 days, after injections - up to 2 weeks.
Attention! The effect of the procedure is noticeable immediately, the skin becomes moisturized and soft. But the result should be fully assessed after rehabilitation, because it takes some time to start natural processes.
In addition, to achieve a more pronounced result, cosmetologists recommend a course of procedures. This is approximately 3-5 sessions with a break of 1-3 weeks. These indicators are determined individually.
Facial care after biorevitalization
Immediately after the biorevitalization procedure, small tubercles (papules) remain on the skin, which can be seen in all the photos. There may be some swelling in the affected areas. These unpleasant symptoms should disappear after a few hours. Dots from needle punctures last longer (up to a maximum of 7 days).
Special soothing masks and ointments will help speed up recovery. A cosmetologist may offer a massage to enhance the outflow of fluid.
A microcurrent session also helps to shorten the rehabilitation period.
During the day, you should not even wash your face with water, and reduce tactile contact with your face to a minimum to avoid infection.
You will have to stop scrubbing your skin for 2 weeks.
Dried crusts will gradually fall off on their own. It is not advisable to pick them off prematurely, as the likelihood of infection getting into the wounds increases.
The first days it is necessary to treat with drugs with anti-inflammatory components. The specialist who performed the biorevitalization will suggest a suitable remedy. For healing, a cream is often used: Bepanten plus or Panthenol.
To wash your face, use a cleanser with a neutral acidity level.
It is important to increase fluid intake and irrigate your face with thermal water when possible.
Price
Carrying out one session of injection biorevitalization of lips in a cosmetology clinic or beauty salon in Moscow will cost between 4.5 and 20 thousand rubles. In complex cases, as well as when lip contour correction is necessary, the cost will be maximum.
The laser procedure will cost a little more, due to the expense of expensive equipment, and will cost 8–15 thousand rubles per session.
The price of the drug used is also reflected in the final amount of rejuvenation. For example, IAL-SYSTEM ACP therapy costs from 10 thousand rubles, Alimex - 6 thousand rubles, and Juvederm Hydrate - from 15-18 thousand rubles.
Almost every beauty salon in Moscow offers lip biorevitalization procedures. Which one is worthy is up to you to choose. But don’t forget to read real patient reviews before doing this, and ask about the certificates and professional capabilities of the staff.

Precautionary measures
To ensure that the effect of the procedure is pleasing and not accompanied by complications, it is recommended to pay attention to the following nuances:
- A clinic or beauty salon must have licenses and certificates.
- All preparations for the procedure must be certified and suitable for use. The ampoule is opened only in the presence of the patient; on the packaging you can verify the suitability of the product.
- Much depends on the professionalism of the doctor; his mistake can result in serious complications. Consider this fact when choosing a cosmetologist.
- Study the contraindications with special care to avoid unpleasant consequences.
Restrictions after injections
After the procedure, you should follow simple rules to reduce the risk of unpleasant consequences.
The following are subject to a 10-day ban:
- solarium and prolonged exposure to the sun;
- sauna;
- bath;
- high-intensity physical activity, including sports;
- physiotherapy.
In the first two days you must avoid any cosmetics. It will be replaced by special agents with anti-inflammatory effects. It is especially important not to use foundation.
Avoid alcohol and anticoagulants for 3 days.
Contraindications
Among the contraindications for biorevitalization, cosmetologists identify:
- presence of cancer;
- moles in the affected area;
- exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- problems with blood clotting;
- autoimmune diseases;
- herpes in the acute stage;
- increased body temperature, feverish state;
- epilepsy, diabetes and other complex diseases;
- age under 18 years;
- allergy to the components of the drug.
Important! Pregnant patients and during lactation should avoid cosmetic procedures. In addition, hormonal changes during menstruation can also negatively affect the result and prolong the rehabilitation period.
Side effects
Lip biorevitalization, especially injection, is often accompanied by the following side effects:
- slight redness of the area around the mouth;
- hematomas;
- swelling, slight swelling of the involved tissues;
- soreness of the integument;
- pronounced puncture sites, papules;
- small rash on the face;
- formation of nodules under the skin.
Most of the side effects go away on their own in the first 3–5 days of the rehabilitation period. If the condition worsens, suppuration increases and pain increases, consult a specialist immediately.
Anti-inflammatory and wound-healing drugs such as Traumeel S and Troxevasin will help accelerate the healing of damaged tissues. However, only a doctor prescribes them; independent treatment is dangerous to health.
Lip rejuvenation with gel in 1 session
Lip augmentation with gel is a non-surgical technique for changing the size of the lips, rejuvenating and improving their appearance.
Modern cosmetology uses new generation gels that are compatible with the human body, and therefore are well accepted by it and do not cause side effects - allergies, inflammation, lip deformations and others. The most popular drug is considered to be a gel based on hyaluronic acid, for example, Restylane Lipp, Filorga, Teosyal Kiss and many others. These drugs have been tested and certified. But the success of the procedure depends not only on the brand of filler and its quality, but to a greater extent on the skill of the cosmetologist who knows how to work with drugs and select the optimal dosage for the client.
Comparison with other anti-aging procedures
Lip biorevitalization is not the only cosmetic procedure aimed at rejuvenating and correcting the area around the mouth. An alternative to the procedure is:
- Contour plastic. An effective way to correct age-related imperfections on the face. Highly active drugs are used for correction. The procedure is recommended for mature patients, after 40–45 years. Fillers are also used to correct lip asymmetry.
- Mesotherapy. A lightweight version of biorevitalization. To carry out the procedure, vitamin cocktails are used to improve skin health and maintain tissue firmness and elasticity.
- Botox. For rejuvenation and transformation, drugs containing botulinum toxin are used. Its main effect is to relax the muscles around the mouth, which helps smooth out purse-string wrinkles. The composition is not injected directly into the lips. The effect is temporary. Botulinum toxin does not affect the speed of internal processes and regeneration, therefore it is used for a cosmetic effect.
Biorevitalization of lips (the essence of the method)
The procedure for rejuvenating the lip area effectively restores the structure of the skin, replenishes the lack of moisture, and restores protective mechanisms.
Biorevitalization rejuvenates, tones, reduces the severity of wrinkles, and improves appearance.
The essence of the technique is microinjections of compounds made on the basis of hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin.
The concentration of hyaluronate in the preparations is several times higher compared to the tissues of the human body. After entering the lips, the molecules of the substance break down into particles, from which the cells form their own hyaluronic acid.
With age, the natural synthesis of hyaluronate decreases greatly, so the main beneficial property is the activation of the formation of its own hyaluronic acid.
As a result, a substitution process takes place: the synthetic drug is replaced by a natural one.
Without hyaluronate, cell reproduction and normal functioning of connective and nerve tissues are impossible. The substance is part of the epidermis, joint fluid, and saliva.
Its most important property is the ability to attract many water molecules. When the concentration of hyaluronic acid decreases, the skin suffers from a lack of moisture. This leads to a slowdown in cell division and the appearance of signs of aging.
Biorevitalization of lips is an effective procedure aimed at restoring the natural synthesis of hyalurunate.
The introduction of drugs increases the level of hydration and stimulates tissue restoration. Injections provide a powerful rejuvenating effect, increase skin density and smooth out wrinkles.

How does hyaluronic acid work when injected?
The principle of action of hyaluronic acid is based on restoring normal moisture content. One molecule of a substance can attract up to a thousand molecules of water. In an aquatic environment, metabolic reactions are accelerated. There is a high-quality saturation of cells with oxygen and nutrients. The protective properties of the skin are enhanced, the regeneration process is launched, and the effects of inflammation and acne disappear faster. Hyaluronic acid can significantly transform your appearance, as confirmed by facial photos taken before and after the procedure. It fills cavities, helps smooth out wrinkles, and forms a tightened contour.
The time it takes for the acid to be absorbed ranges from 6 months to a year. In some cases, this period reaches one and a half years. The substance has the ability to have a cumulative effect. To do this, it is recommended to carry out the course annually to maintain the required concentration of the active component. Who are hyaluronic acid injections indicated for?
