Glytone: ANALOGUES
- the most appropriate analogue is Stylage, which, like Glyton, contains mannitol, but all preparations based on monophasic stabilized hyaluronic acid - Belotero, Teosyal, CRM, Princess, Reneall, etc. can be classified as similar
Mechanism of action and indications for use
Glytone is a line of innovative multifunctional drugs that are designed for non-traumatic correction of age-related changes in the face. The preparations in this line are monophasic hydrogels, which include stabilized cross-linking agent (BBDE) and native (non-stabilized) hyaluronic acid and mannitol (sexahydric alcohol).
Mannitol performs the properties of an antioxidant, thereby stopping the process of enzymatic destruction of hyaluronic acid, and the combination of its two fractions in one preparation - native and stabilized - allows for the process of internal regeneration of the extracellular matrix and the prevention of skin aging.
The combination of mannitol and two fractions of hyaluronic acid allows you to use Glytone to fill wrinkles of varying depths, model the shape of the face, stimulate metabolic processes in the dermis (therapeutic effect) and correct scars.

Glytone: about the drug
Glytone series preparations are designed for comfortable, atraumatic correction of wrinkles. The composition of the drug optimally combines hyaluronic acid and 6-hydric alcohol mannitol, which inhibits the process of acid destruction, due to which the long-lasting effect is maintained.
Glytone fillers simultaneously perform the following tasks:
1. It corrects wrinkles of varying severity and restores volume
2. Glyton starts the process of formation of new collagen, while simultaneously inhibiting the destruction of its own collagen fibers. Consequently, the skin is tightened, and the result is maintained even after the expiration date; 3. Mannitol contained in the drug does not allow hyaluronic acid to disintegrate, which ensures that there is no effect of volume “falling” in the first days after correction, and also allows you to maintain long-term activity of the drug (up to 24 months). The hyaluronic acid used in the gels is produced according to strict European quality standards, and the filler has also passed all the stages of control that currently exist for similar preparations. The above measures are a guarantee of the safety and highest quality of the product. Glytone eliminates the need for preliminary allergy tests and is completely biodegradable, leaving no traces. Due to their plasticity, the gels do not require intensive kneading at the end of the procedure, which significantly reduces the risk of hematomas.
Features of Glytone fillers include the presence of unstabilized hyaluronic acid in the composition, which provides a biorevitalization effect in the area of drug administration, which is an additional powerful factor in neocollagenogenesis.
"Pedigree" of Glytone filler
Glyton is called both a biorevitalizant and a volumizer because it is used for all types of procedures to eliminate the main signs of aging. Created in the laboratory of the Pierre Fabre company, the filler came under the control of Merz, whose track record includes more than one drug for “beauty injections.”
Restoring the volume of adipose tissue (in case of atrophy), smoothing the skin up to the restoration of the original relief, masking both small superficial and deep wrinkles, reconstructing the contour, as well as facial rejuvenation and short-term elimination of minor age-related changes after biorevitalization - all this can be eliminated with the help drug Glyton.
The Glytone line consists of four drugs, three of which are fillers:

Glytone: reviews
Most patients are very satisfied with the injections of this drug, some note faster absorption of the drug than stated. It is worth remembering that this may be due to both individual characteristics of local immunity and metabolism, and to procedures, for example, if a patient undergoes a course of hardware procedures after the introduction of a filler, and the field where Glytone is located is affected by the procedure, Don't be surprised that it will resolve faster. This is true for procedures that increase local blood circulation, especially those accompanied by heating. If you want to combine filler injections with hardware techniques without compromising the duration of its presence in the tissues, you can consider options for contour preparations based on polycaprolactone - Ellance.
Advantages of using Glyton fillers
Thanks to the special composition of the Glyton gel, which, we recall, is monophasic, it has a number of advantages over biphasic fillers (for example, Restylane or Radiesse):
- Simultaneous viscosity and elasticity of the drug.
- Easy and painless administration.
- The possibility of manual distribution of the gel (with your fingertips) after injection, which eliminates the risk of bumps and stagnation (two-phase gels are smoother, so it is more difficult to model them after injection).
- Uniform resorption (biodegradation) of the gel. After the introduction of Lyton, the tissue does not lose volume, unlike biphasic fillers, which eliminates the need for correction.
- The ability to create a natural effect: be it lip augmentation or skin rejuvenation.
- Minimal risk of complications (swelling and stagnation of the gel in the tissues are practically excluded).
- Long-term rejuvenation results, which are achieved through the inclusion of mannitol in the composition of hyaluronic acid.
- Natural activation of collagen and elastin synthesis, due to which, even after the fillers expire, the skin will look younger than before the procedure.
- The ability to even out skin texture after the first procedure.
- Additional skin hydration for the entire period of action of the drug.
The unique composition of the drug provides a prolonged rejuvenation effect and allows you to solve the following problems:
- correction of scars on the skin:
- elimination of medium and deep wrinkles;
- restoration of lost tissue volume (cheekbones, chin, nasolabial folds);
- stimulation of metabolic processes in the dermis;
- restoration of natural skin color.
Like other fillers based on hyaluronic acid, Glyton gel is available in various densities (viscosities) and concentrations of hyaluronic acid, and is intended to solve certain problems. The Glytone line includes the following drugs: Glytone 1, Glytone 2, Glytone 3 and Glytone 4.
Below is a detailed description of how to use filler to solve skin problems.

Skin care after
After contour plastic surgery or biorevitalization, you will need to follow a number of simple rules that will reduce the risk of infection through injection wounds, the appearance and growth of edema and hematomas. To do this you will have to:
- postpone visiting the pool for at least 2 days;
- reschedule visits to the sauna, solarium, steam room, and any thermal procedures for 3-4 days;
- reduce physical activity and completely avoid bending work for 3-4 days;
- limit the use of decorative cosmetics for 2 days;
- very carefully, barely touching the skin, apply cosmetics to the skin of the face and completely eliminate massage and self-massage for 4 days.
In order to protect the skin from adverse effects and prolong the effect of Glyton injection preparations, Merz has developed a line of products for daily use.
The products contain vitamins C and E, red tea flavonoids and glycolic acid. You can see how the tools work in our next video.
Video: Glytone Review
You can underestimate the effect of properly selected daily care at a young age (up to about 25 years). Then it is better to entrust skin care to professional cosmetics, which are designed, among other things, to prolong (extend) the effect of injection and hardware procedures.

TEOSYAL is indicated for removing fine wrinkles from the surface of the skin, for working on the most sensitive areas of the face - the area of crow's feet. Read on.
How it works?
The elasticity and smoothness of the skin is provided by collagen and elastin fibers, which form a frame that holds the soft tissues of the body in a certain position and prevents stretching and sagging of the skin under the influence of gravity and mechanical influences.
With age, metabolic processes in tissues slow down, including the replacement of damaged fibers with new ones. Therefore, the skin loses elasticity, stretches, forms creases, folds and wrinkles.
Under the influence of hyaluronic acid, the function of fibroblasts is activated, which are responsible for the production of natural moisturizing factor, collagen and elastin fibers. This leads to skin rejuvenation, improvement of its structure and smoothing of its surface.
You can see how this happens in our video.

The peculiarity of his preparations is that even if you use filler to correct nasolabial folds or areas of crow’s feet, you get long-term hydration and a pronounced biorevitalizing effect without the additional introduction of biorevitalizants.

Consequences
- Papules.
Papules do not remain after each procedure. Glyton 1 biorevitalizant is administered using the papular technique. But Glyton 4 filler is never injected using the papular technique, since its main purpose is volumetric correction of facial tissue. Papules after the procedure can persist for 2-3 hours, then gradually resolve.
- Swelling and bruising.
Taking into account the fact that in addition to hyaluronic acid, the drug contains mannitol, and the biorevitalizant also contains glycerin, which is also known for its ability to attract and retain water, swelling appears immediately after the procedure, about 5 minutes after the injection, and intensifies quite quickly. But after about 20-30 minutes, the severity of the swelling decreases. In most cases, the client leaves the cosmetologist's office with a completely normal face. Hematomas can persist for up to several days and disappear without leaving a trace without treatment.
- Allergic reactions.
If an allergic reaction occurs after the procedure, then you should not immediately blame the hyaluronic gel for everything. Both a local anesthetic and a means for disinfecting injection sites can be an allergen.
- Itching and pain at the injection site.
Unpleasant sensations can persist for up to several days, then go away on their own and without treatment. Pain can be especially pronounced in the first days after large volumes of filler are injected into certain areas of the face.
- Violation of facial symmetry and overcorrection.
If too large a volume of the drug is injected, the corrected area may lose its natural contours.

How is the procedure performed?
Stage 1: Pain relief. Anesthesia is always performed, except in cases where the patient himself refuses local anesthesia. For this, several products can be used, such as Emla cream or Light Dip. The analgesic (pain-relieving) effect of the drugs develops 30 minutes after application.
Stage 2: Administration of the drug. The technique for administering the drug depends on the density of the gel, its purpose, the type of cosmetic defects on the client’s skin (linear wrinkles, lack of subcutaneous tissue, etc.). Sometimes injection techniques are combined. The video below shows the procedure for introducing the gel into the lower eyelid area.
Stage 3: Completion of the procedure. According to the recommendations of the manufacturer Glyton, after completing the injections, a light tissue massage is allowed to evenly distribute the gel in the tissues.
You should not wash your face or apply medications or cosmetics, so as not to provoke the development of an allergic reaction and not to introduce infection into the injection wounds. The only thing that can be done is to treat the injection sites with an antiseptic.
