Biorevitalization of the neck and décolleté area is the injection of hyaluronic acid-based preparations under the skin to moisturize and rejuvenate the skin. Injections of hyaluronic acid help replenish moisture deficiency and create a water reserve in the skin, providing it with optimal hydration.
The composition of preparations for biorevitalization may include not only hyaluronic acid in its pure form, but also vitamins, microelements, peptides and amino acids. Depending on the age and indications, the doctor selects the most suitable drug.
Indications
- Signs of skin aging: decreased skin turgor (density) and elasticity, appearance of fine wrinkles;
- Dry, dehydrated skin;
- Skin restoration after traumatic techniques: laser resurfacing, deep peelings, plastic surgery;
- Smoking, high psychological stress, excess ultraviolet radiation and other influences that affect the quality of the skin.
Biorevitalization of the neck has no indications or age restrictions, only the condition of the skin.
How many days will it take for the papules to resolve?
Within a few hours after the procedure, the papular tubercles noticeably increase (up to 30%), and then the drug begins to gradually be absorbed with their smoothing. It is impossible to say exactly how long papules last after biorevitalization, because everything depends on the characteristics of the body. The average period is 2-3 days, the maximum is 10 days. But with good skin condition and a high ability to regenerate, the tubercles become barely noticeable or disappear completely already on the 3rd day after the procedure. Those with sensitive skin should immediately prepare for a longer recovery period.
The cosmetologist can give an approximate time taking into account the following factors:
- skin density at the treatment site;
- thickness of the surface layer of the epidermis;
- degree of hydration of dermal cells;
- circulatory and lymph flow activity.
Contraindications
The doctor cannot perform the procedure for biorevitalization of the neck and décolleté area if you have the following contraindications:
- Acute infectious diseases;
- Herpes;
- Inflammatory processes in the area of the procedure;
- Thyroid diseases;
- Tendency to form keloid scars (existing keloid scars on any part of the body, presence of scars in blood relatives);
- Malignant neoplasms;
- Bleeding disorders;
- Pregnancy and lactation period.
How to improve the results of biorevitalization?
To achieve a prolonged result, it is recommended to repeat the course twice a year and increase the amount of the drug administered. The cost of the drug for biorevitalization depends on the name and volume of the drug.
To carry out the biorevitalization procedure, a special preparation is used. Biorevitalization is performed by a cosmetologist using a special method of introducing the drug into the skin. To relieve discomfort from microinjections, an anesthetic cream is used. The anesthetic application of the cream takes approximately 30 minutes. Next, the cream is removed and the skin biorevitalization procedure itself is carried out. Biorevitalization is used for facial skin rejuvenation, neck and décolleté rejuvenation. The skin biorevitalization procedure can also be performed on any area of the body.
One of the main reasons for the advancing aging of the body is loss of moisture, disruption of the hydroepidermal barrier due to improper care, poor ecology and poor lifestyle. Thus, exposure to the sun, especially in the spring and summer, invariably causes the evaporation of the skin’s own moisture, destroying the natural protective stratum corneum, which leads to loss of firmness, tone, and elasticity. Over time, wrinkles, age spots, peeling, irritation appear, and inflammatory elements may cause concern. It becomes more and more difficult to restore the “water balance” over the years; cosmetics cope with the task of deep hydration less and less well and cannot counteract the appearance of age-related changes. However, using the biorevitalization method, carried out by introducing synthesized hyaluronic acid under the skin, it is possible not only to improve the appearance of the skin, but also to slow down the aging process.
In the modern pharmaceutical industry, great importance is attached to the development of safe drugs for biorevitalization. About 10-15 years ago, preparations of animal origin were used for facial skin biorevitalization procedures. Now there are practically no such preparations left. In the Global Beauty cosmetology and nutrition clinic, biorevitalization procedures use drugs created in the laboratory using a formula completely identical to that of human hyaluronic acid. These facts practically exclude the possibility of allergic reactions. Incompatibility of the drug with the patient's skin is completely eliminated.
The second stage in the development of biorevitalization is the formula of hyaluronic acid, the molecules of which are connected by easily broken bonds. This promotes the rapid and correct distribution of hyaluronic acid molecules between skin cells and within cells. Biorevitalization with such drugs takes place with a minimal rehabilitation period. As you know, after the procedure, papules remain on the skin for one day or more. When using modern drugs for biorevitalization, this period is reduced from one day to several hours.
How not to make a mistake when choosing a drug for biorevitalization? Only a cosmetologist will help you with this. The biorevitalization method is a medical procedure. Although many people consider it a beauty salon procedure, this is not true. Since a medical drug is used to carry out the procedure, only a cosmetologist or dermatologist can prescribe a biorevitalization procedure. The doctor will select a drug for biorevitalization individually for you, taking into account all the features of your skin condition
Preparations for biorevitalization differ from each other in the percentage of hyaluronic acid. There are also preparations for birevitalization, which contain only hyaluronic acid, and there are preparations that synergistically combine hyaluronic acid with a vitamin complex or peptides.
Thus, in addition to the density and concentration of the hyaluronic acid preparation, the preparations also differ in composition. Only a doctor can help you understand this entire offer of biorevitalization drugs.
Accordingly, the cost of the procedure depends on the type of drug for birevitalization. For example, for biorevitalization of the skin, patients with dry and dehydrated facial skin, with pronounced wrinkles, require a drug containing exclusively hyaluronic acid for biorevitalization.
Another example. The skin experiences slight dryness, wrinkles are weakly expressed. To biorevitalize skin of this type, we use a preparation created on the basis of hyaluronic acid, but in addition to hyaluronic acid, the preparation includes vitamins and peptides.
Today, biorevitalization is actively used in modern cosmetology, since the procedure is actively combined with all methods. When conducting a biorevitalization course in parallel with hardware methods, biorevitalization fills the skin with hyaluronic acid, and hardware methods enhance the growth of collagen and elastin. The combined tandem of biorevitalization and hardware methods is the gold standard of cosmetology.
Methodology and results
The first visible result is obvious after the second procedure.
For a pronounced effect, it is recommended to take a course of 4-8 procedures. The number of sessions is determined by the patient's skin condition.
Effect of biorevitalization of the décolleté:
- The skin becomes more elastic and hydrated, a healthy glow appears, small wrinkles are smoothed out;
- Ascorbic acid and vitamin complexes in the preparation for biorevitalization effectively work with pronounced pigmentation in the neck and décolleté;
- The technique stimulates the activity of fibroblasts - cells responsible for youth and elasticity of the skin;
- The procedure restores the hydro reserve in the dermis, which allows you to better cope with the negative effects of external factors (smoking, dry rooms during the heating season, active exposure to the sun).
The duration of the effect of the procedure is, on average, from 3 to 8 months and depends on lifestyle and skin care.
Household cosmetic procedures for rejuvenating the décolleté and neck area
Active care for the neck and décolleté area at home will help you postpone a visit to a cosmetologist, strengthen aging skin, and preserve its freshness and elasticity. The main thing is the correct selection of care products, their proper use and regularity.
The most effective procedures for eliminating age-related changes in the neck:
- daily performance of a set of physical exercises that help stretch and work the muscles of the face and neck;
- control of facial expressions to avoid repetitive facial movements;
- eating a balanced diet, without fast food, with a minimum of fried and sweet foods;
- control of the body's water balance;
- use of moisturizers;
- to give up smoking.
Choosing special soft creams, masks and serums, properly cleansing the skin, performing massage and gymnastics is one of the answers to the question of what procedures will help even out the skin in the décolleté and neck area.
If, as a result of age-related changes, the skin has become flabby, the “rings of Venus” have appeared, moisturizing creams do not solve the problem of dry skin - it will be possible to tighten it with the help of injections and hardware cosmetology.
Recovery
After injections, small bumps (papules) may remain on the skin, but after 1-3 days not a trace remains of them.
For two weeks, it is recommended to avoid active exposure to ultraviolet radiation, visiting baths, saunas and swimming pools. Limit physical activity for 3-5 days.
Home skin care requires almost no changes. If the biorevitalization procedure was carried out in the morning, then by the evening you can already use your usual home care, abandoning masks with an active composition.
If the visit to the cosmetologist was in the evening, it is recommended to avoid using nourishing face creams at night.
Papules after biorevitalization: what is it?
Papules are small elevations above the skin level that contain a gel-like composition with hyaluronic acid. They appear due to the fact that the drug is injected to a shallow depth. The formation of papules is a feature of biorevitalization, in contrast to similar cosmetic procedures. This is a natural skin reaction that is not a pathology, although it scares many.
If there are no papules after biorevitalization, this may indicate:
- disrupted technology (the drug was injected very deeply);
- low density of the substance (HA is diluted with other components);
- excessive dryness of facial skin, imbalance of water balance;
- large thickness of the dermis.
The size of the resulting papules depends on the angle of the needle entering the skin, the composition of the hyaluronic acid-based product and the area of treatment. For example, in the décolleté area the diameter of the tubercles is usually 3 mm, while in the periorbital area it is no more than 1 mm.
How long do papules last?
For those who are doing biorevitalization for the first time, the appearance of papules can be a very unpleasant surprise. Many people expect an instant effect “at the tip of a needle.” However, this is not quite true. Skin hydration and tightening actually occur almost immediately after the procedure. And smoothness and a pleasant appearance appear later.

In the first hours after the procedure, it is strictly forbidden to use decorative cosmetics that could be used to disguise papules. This is fraught with infection and the development of inflammation, which will further aggravate the situation.
It is not surprising that many cosmetologist patients are interested in how long papules last on the skin. To answer this question you need to know a large number of nuances. Starting from the nature of the patient’s skin and ending with the type of drug used.
For example, if you do biorevitalization with more concentrated preparations, then they are distributed in the skin much longer than more watery ones. But it is the speed of distribution of hyaluronic acid that determines the time of disappearance of the papule. Resorption is influenced by the metabolic rate in the skin and the age of the patient. Even the time of year - in warm times the distribution is faster than in cold times.
In addition, we cannot exclude the inflammatory component of the appearance of papules after biorevitalization. The course of inflammation is quite individual. Therefore, the answer to the question of how long papules persist after biorevitalization is most likely to be from 12 hours to several days. If they do not disappear longer, then you should consult a doctor. He will take certain therapeutic measures if the patient needs it.
Why do they appear
Biorevitalization at its core is a simple introduction of a solution of hyaluronic acid into the skin. This is a type of replacement therapy. The thing is that a significant amount of this substance is contained in many types of tissues of the human body. Including in the dermis and epidermis. There it performs many important functions - from the regulation of water exchange and the volume of intercellular space, to the distribution of pigment and the synthesis of connective tissue fibers - collagen and elastin.
However, over time, its concentration steadily decreases. The largest amount of hyaluronic acid is found in children's skin. And closer to old age, in some areas it is practically gone. That is why, to slow down the rate of aging, as well as to moisturize the skin and eliminate pigment disorders, the biorevitalization method is used.
Expert opinion
Evgenia Polyanskaya Cosmetologist
The essence of the technique is well known - using a syringe with a very thin needle, a series of skin injections are made with the simultaneous injection of a small amount of a gel-like solution with hyaluronic acid. For biorevitalization, the so-called papular technique of drug administration is used - when small volumes of solution are injected at equal distances from each other, and an intradermal vesicle is formed.
Since the depth of injection of the drug is relatively shallow, such bubbles can be seen from the outside. They are called papules. They are formed due to a special technique for administering drugs characteristic of biorevitalization. After other procedures, for example, mesotherapy or bioreinforcement, papules do not form.
In addition, papules occur due to the fact that skin damage occurs during the administration of the drug. This leads to local inflammation followed by swelling. The presence of hyaluronic acid in the wound promotes even greater fluid accumulation. This is why papules appear quickly after biorevitalization and go away slowly.
