Mesotherapy and biorevitalization: what is the difference?

Today, such methods of injection cosmetology as mesotherapy and biorevitalization are very popular. Both procedures, indeed, give a visible effect due to the active active ingredients, which are delivered by injection directly into the skin tissue, rendering them a rejuvenating and tightening effect. The result is visible almost immediately. However, before choosing a particular cosmetic procedure, you should be familiar with the features, advantages and disadvantages of each of them. It is equally important to learn the advice of specialists, professional cosmetologists and reviews of clients who have already tried these procedures.

Mesotherapy and biorevitalization are relatively new procedures for the face in cosmetology, but, despite their not so long existence, they have already gained the confidence of many women around the globe. They prefer ladies at any age.

The procedure of mesotherapy appeared a little earlier than biorevitalization, but this does not mean that it is worse.

The peculiarities of both procedures include their high efficiency. This is due primarily to the fact that with the help of special injections, which are injected subcutaneously, higher concentrations of anti-aging and auxiliary components are created in the layers of the epidermis than, for example, using conventional anti-aging creams.

Mesotherapy is a procedure for the introduction of active substances into the skin.

Most often, beauticians use the following components:

• vitamins and minerals (can be used as a single component, and mixtures thereof);
• amino acids;
• various plant extracts;
• enzymes;
• hyaluronic acid;
• antioxidant substances;
• other drugs.

Regarding cosmetology, very often mesotherapy is used to eliminate imperfections on the face, but there are also frequent cases when using injections get rid of cellulite and other imperfections of the dermis on the body. In addition, as an auxiliary procedure, mesotherapy can be applied in such areas of medicine as dermatology, gynecology and neurology.

Mesotherapy injections are not very deep, usually only a few millimeters into the middle layers of the epidermis. The procedure is performed either by using disposable syringes, or using a special meso-injector. The big plus of the second is its painlessness and fixing each puncture to the same depth. In total, the specialist performs 70–100 microinjections per procedure. Depending on the part of the body with which the professional works, the number of injections can vary up or down. The mixtures injected under the skin are most often liquid, without impurities. Pain, as a rule, during the procedure, the client does not feel, especially if all the preparatory measures were carried out.

Biorevitalization is the introduction of subcutaneous injections of drugs exclusively with hyaluronic acid. This acid is considered to be very useful because it is produced in the body of each person and is part of many tissues.In addition, this acid is indeed a lifesaver, because it participates in many important processes in our body. Especially it affects tissue regeneration, stimulation of elastin synthesis and, moreover, hyaluronic acid improves the production of collagen fibers.

Biorevitalization differs from mesotherapy also in the fact that injections are carried out not into the middle, but into the deep layers of the dermis and only at equally distant points on the skin. The consistency of the injected solutions is most often gel-like.

Since the mechanism of the effect of mesotherapy and biorevitalization on the skin and the body as a whole is slightly different, their indications for use differ slightly.

Most often mesotherapy is recommended:

• to improve the overall condition of the face and its color;
• to eliminate the first signs of aging;
• for getting rid of age spots;
• with rosacea and acne;
• to get rid of imperfections of the face (scars, scars, wrinkles, dark circles and bags under the eyes);
• with the primary signs of skin fading.

As for biorevitalization, its specialists most often recommend to women and men, in whose body the production of hyaluronic acid is reduced. This procedure acts purposefully and exclusively on certain areas of impact of injections.

It is recommended to choose biorevitalization in cases:

• severe dryness of the skin, as well as visible signs of fatigue that do not go away by themselves;
• prevent early aging of the skin;
• for smoothing “crow's feet” on the skin of the face, as well as folds and small wrinkles;
• when restoring water balance in the skin;
• to normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands;
• to reduce pigment spots and as a prevention of their further appearance.

Contraindications for both cosmetic procedures are almost the same.

Both procedures should not be carried out with:

• pregnancy and breastfeeding of the baby;
• possible allergic reactions to those or other components that will be injected;
• skin tendency to scarring;
• psoriasis, as well as with various infectious diseases of the skin in those places where the procedure will be carried out;
• the presence of abrasions, cuts or hematomas at the puncture site;
• blood clotting, if indicated by appropriate tests.

Many experts believe that both procedures are best not combined with other injection and hardware procedures that can harm the skin or the body as a whole. It is not recommended to simultaneously peel the skin and polish it with a laser.

If the specialist took into account all the features of the client’s body and skin, then the procedure, as a rule, does not cause further complications. Sometimes, as a side effect, mild inflammations on the skin are noted, but they pass rather quickly. If you experience allergies, prolonged inflammation, itching and other disturbing symptoms, you should immediately consult a doctor.

Both procedures differ in the duration of the preservation of the result of the drugs, the time of their action and the number of necessary injections for a certain period of time.

The duration of the course of the procedure of mesotherapy or biorevitalization depends on the particular case and individual indications. The number of courses should be determined by an appropriate specialist.

As a rule, with biorevitalization, improvements are immediately noticeable. The number of procedures will directly depend on the general condition of the skin at the first stage of the injection.According to experts, to achieve the best effect, about five procedures may be needed to tighten the face, return the former contour and get rid of wrinkles. But, of course, this figure is approximate. Very often, clients need assistive and corrective therapy after some time. Basically, the visible effect of the procedure lasts up to six months.

As for mesotherapy, then, as a rule, there is no immediate pronounced effect. For this, a certain amount of time must pass. However, the cumulative effect of this procedure is much higher and can last up to 1 year. In order to get an excellent result, it can take up to seven or even ten procedures. The intervals between them are negotiated exclusively with a specialist, taking into account all the wishes and characteristics of the client.

It is safe to say that no procedure will please with its long-lasting effect, if, after its implementation, it is not necessary to take care of the skin properly. To maintain the beauty of the face and body will have to be patient and high-quality home care products. And also have to take care of their own proper and rational nutrition, establishing a daily regimen and giving up bad habits that adversely affect the body as a whole.

It’s simply illogical to choose a procedure solely for indications from the Internet. Each specific case is individual. The choice in favor of a procedure must be made by an appropriate specialist.

Both procedures are ideal for the prevention of the first signs of aging skin. In 30-35 years and after 40, biorevitalization is most effective, since, unlike mesotherapy, it gives a visible effect immediately. In addition, it is precisely at this age that the body may catastrophically lack its own hyaluronic acid, which is very important to replenish in the right amount.

What is better, definitely can not be said. Each of the described procedures has its own pros and cons, and besides, you need to take into account the financial situation, since one procedure is not enough and you have to complete several courses to achieve the best effect.

Experts advise many of the fair sex, especially at a young age, to pay attention to mesotherapy, because it has a very wide range of uses, and you can use a variety of different means and formulations as injections, which can be selected one at a time or in combination.

To perform this or that procedure, preference should be given exclusively to professionals. from licensed beauty and beauty salons. You should not save on injections, otherwise it is fraught with serious consequences. Depending on the complex of injections and companies, prices can really hit the wallet, you need to count on it in advance.

To combat very deep wrinkles, of course, it is best to give preference to hyaluronic acid cocktails, which instantly solve several problems at once. Drugs with a dense structure can correct the very visible signs of aging in just a few procedures.

If you are not sure that you can cope with the choice of the necessary procedure yourself, it is best to use the help of specialists. They will tell you in more detail the difference between the procedures and make an individual scheme for eliminating deficiencies in the skin.
