The Reneall product line consists of domestic monophasic fillers and biorevitalizants based on hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, produced in Korea. What distinctive features do these injection products for aesthetic use have in comparison with their counterparts? Let's compare! So, the developer of Reneall is Russian, which is now part of the large research holding NMTC. The drug was registered as a medical product, namely a hyaluronic biopolymer (not to be confused with a biopolymer gel), approved for use in the Russian Federation in 2010. The manufacturer of the Reneall line of products, commissioned by the NMTC holding, is SLS LLC, registered in Moscow, Russian Federation. Analogues: other monophasic hyaluronic contour preparations can be considered analogues of Riniall fillers, for example: Amalian, Hyaluform, Surgiderm, Juvederm, Teosyal, Hyacorp, Style - also known as Stylage (Stylage), Belotero, CRM, Princess and so on, the list goes on due to the large selection of such tools. Analogues among biorevitalizants can be considered other drugs of this class that do not contain other active ingredients (bioreparants).
Description of the drug
Revofil belongs to the new generation of drugs. It is capable of combining contour plastic surgery and biorevitalization. In addition to hyaluronic acid and a set of all the standard vitamins and microelements for such preparations, Revofil includes biomimetric peptides. They are completely identical to the natural peptides of our skin. As the manufacturer of the drug notes, this combination of components allows you to increase the production of your own collagen and hyaluronic acid by more than 80%, well moisturize and tighten the skin.
In addition, the biomimetric peptides included in Revofil gels provide a huge antioxidant effect. They protect the skin from ultraviolet rays and prevent the formation of free radicals. The use of Revofil gels can not only restore volume, but also has the property of restoring the skin at the cellular level.
The effect after a course of Revofil is noticeable almost immediately, continues to increase and can last from 10 months to 2 years. Then only minor adjustments are required. This result is achieved due to the same biomimetric peptides that suppress the activity of hyaluronidase, which breaks down hyaluronic acid.
Alcohol before filler injections
Drinking alcohol immediately before the procedure can also negatively affect the result; the patient may feel unwell, feel weak and dizzy, and there may be problems with blood clotting and healing of micropuncture marks. The rehabilitation period will most likely not be as smooth as if the patient did not drink alcohol at all. In addition, the result of filler injection may be slightly worse than expected or even negative, since alcohol dilates blood vessels, increases blood flow, and hyaluronic acid is not “packed” in the desired way. The patient may note an insufficient effect of volume replenishment and a desire to “prick up” a little more filler. Drinking alcohol on the eve of the procedure can also increase the patient's anxiety, which will negatively affect the procedure and can interfere with both him and the cosmetologist's work. To make sure your contouring goes smoothly, instead of drinking for courage, it's better to just calm down and take a few deep breaths.
Revofil line of drugs
The Revofil line is represented by 5 drugs, three of which are more related to contour plastic surgery, and two - to biorevitalizants. They differ in the speed of resorption and indications for use. The course of injections for contour plastic surgery is on average 2-3 times, for biorevitalization - up to 6 times. It all depends on the scope of the problems being solved and the individual characteristics of the skin. Injections can also be applied in various ways, which are determined by the cosmetologist.
Revofil fine is intended for the prevention of aging processes. It is used to correct the contour of the lips, superficial wrinkles and scars, the tear trough and the temporal region. The drug is injected into the upper layers of the skin. It is recommended for use between the ages of 30 and 35 years.
Revofil plus is already used to correct deeper age-related wrinkles and the volume of age-related changes, as well as for vector lifting. Area of application: forehead, temporal area, bridge of the nose, nasolabial folds, cheekbones, cheeks and chin. It is injected into the middle layers of the skin. Recommended for use after 35 years.
Revofil Ultra corrects deep wrinkles and facial contours, replenishes the volume of the temporal region, cheekbones, cheeks and chin. It is injected into the deep layers of the skin and is recommended for use after 50 years.
Biorevitalizants include Aquashine preparations: Aquashine (or base) and Aquashine BR. The basic one is intended for use between the ages of 35 and 40, when signs of aging are just beginning to appear. It deeply and well moisturizes the skin, tightening it, removing facial wrinkles and restoring natural color and radiance. Aquashine BR has a powerful whitening effect. It removes any skin pigmentation, including photoaging, and evens out its tone and color. The drug also copes with pronounced ptosis and rosacea. Due to the fact that it removes obvious signs of aging, it is recommended to use Aquashine BR at the age of 45-50 years.
Complications
Hematomas, tissue swelling. Vascular trauma is inevitable even with minimally invasive methods. Contour plastic surgery is no exception. To minimize the consequences, you need to discuss with your cosmetologist your own predisposition to swelling and bruising. He will prescribe medications to strengthen blood vessels a few days before the procedure.
If bruises appear, it is recommended to use heparin ointment.
Pain. Depends on the individual characteristics of the body. Caused by rejection of a foreign object. Fillers based on hyaluronic acid reduce the risk of this complication to a minimum, since they consist of a substance close to human tissue.
Inflammation, fibrous contractures. A common occurrence in artisanal cosmetology establishments. Accompanied by a strong inflammatory process. The infection spreads to the injection area and nearby tissues. People who have performed the procedure at home often seek help.
Vascular embolism. Possible after deep injection of filler. The doctor must assess the potential risk of complications before performing the procedure.
Revofil: what cosmetologists are silent about
Despite the fact that, according to the instructions, Revofil has no side effects, some cosmetologists and patients recommend treating it with caution. The appearance of slight swelling and redness characteristic of such injections is not surprising and should subside within a few days.
However, this is not always the case. Many note cases where the procedure did more harm than good. And this cannot be explained only by an individual reaction or non-compliance with the recommendations of a specialist. Experienced cosmetologists talk about the difficulty of certifying drugs and the impossibility of finding out how they were tested. This means that there is a high probability of counterfeit or, in principle, may not correspond to what is declared. For this reason, reviews about it are mixed.
Reneall (Reneall) – reviews:
The price of the drug is quite affordable, but it is not the cheapest product on the market. It allows you to keep the procedure at an accessible level. Tissue reactions are described by the manufacturer as 1 in 10,000. My personal experience with this drug is small, but the effect is decent, there were no problems. In fact, many (but not all) cosmetologists complain of redness at the site of Reneall injection under the influence of mild colds and sun exposure. Moreover, the prescription of the injection in some such cases is about 2 years, which indicates that the drug itself has already dissolved. What remains in the tissues and causes such things to happen? This circumstance is not entirely pleasant, and even if this does not happen to everyone, it can significantly “spoil” the opinion of the drug. As for the duration of its action, they are quite good, Riniall fillers last a long time, but what if just such an incident occurs? Now many people visit hot countries once or even several times a year, and no one needs problems during vacation. When hyaluronic monophasic preparations remain in tissues for a long time, that is, for a long time compared to their counterparts, especially those that have proven themselves to be long-used quality preparations that have undergone large-scale clinical studies (including with regard to allergenicity), this raises suspicions about that they contain some synthetic inclusions that remain in the tissues after the hyaluron has already been absorbed. They are not written about on the packaging, but such examples of pathological tissue reactivity in the projection of the filler injection site, also noted when using Radiesse and similar long-lasting drugs, suggest their presence.
Advantages of the brand line
The range of products is quite extensive and contains drugs suitable for any client’s needs. All fillers are of different densities, which allows them to produce results of different functions - from deep hydration to correction of the oval of the face or the shape of the nose.
The safe composition has been confirmed by several studies, the results of which have resulted in quality certificates and a license for pharmaceutical products. The minimal number of possible side effects and the almost complete absence of allergic reactions to drugs allows fillers to be considered a worthy alternative to surgical rejuvenation operations.
Side effects
Sometimes after contouring, the patient experiences mild side effects.
They usually go away on the 7th day after the procedure. It can be:
- redness and slight bruising;
- swelling;
- pain at the injection sites or slight itching;
Situations that require immediate medical attention and treatment include:
- long-term loss of skin sensitivity at injection sites;
- scarring of tissue in the injection area;
- formation of compactions and bumps;
- skin discoloration;
- filler contouring.
Patient reviews on the use of Amalain fillers
Ekaterina, professional experience 32 years, Kazan:
I work as a cosmetologist, I have been using Amaline since the beginning of my activity - 8 years. It has never let me down, always a predictable excellent result. Foreign drugs sometimes gave strange effects in the form of prolonged swelling, but there were no problems with ours.
Lyudmila, 28 years old, Novosibirsk:
I did biorevitalization with Amaline, I really liked it. The skin has stopped flaking and feels nourished, moisturized, and elastic. Good product, I will repeat it.
Antonina, 42 years old, Vyazma:
I chose Amaline because of the price - it is significantly lower than other drugs. And he was able to please me. I didn't even recognize myself in the mirror. Gives very good results. But you need to endure swelling for about a week. I take a vacation after the procedure and sit quietly at home for 5-7 days, and come out already beautiful.
Indications and contraindications
Procedures using fillers are varied, so the drugs have a large list of indications. These include:
- signs of aging at any stage (initial, moderate, pronounced);
- dehydrated skin prone to prolonged peeling;
- pronounced scars;
- desire to correct the shape of the nose, lips or face shape;
- the presence of excessive pigmentation;
- upcoming or past plastic surgery or a course of aggressive peeling;
- urological or gynecological problems (for specialized fillers).
If you have one or more indications, you need to contact a cosmetology center for specialist advice. At this stage, possible contraindications to the procedure are clarified. These include:
- the period of bearing a child and breastfeeding;
- age under 18 years, in the absence of written consent of the guardian for the procedure;
- autoimmune pathologies;
- infectious diseases;
- allergic reactions to components in the drug or anesthesia;
- skin pathologies, including violation of the integrity of the skin and dermatological diseases;
- tendency to develop keloid scars.
If there is any contraindication, the procedure is not performed. A visit to a cosmetologist should be postponed until your health condition allows the use of the drug.
Answers on questions
Can I use decorative cosmetics after the procedure?
Due to microtraumas that occur during the administration of the drug, the use of decorative cosmetics is not recommended for a week after the procedure. This will help avoid possible complications such as infection of the papules from injections.
Which is better to choose: Juvederm fillers or Amaline?
It depends on the existing problems and financial capabilities. The Amaline series, although budget-friendly, is effective. Juvederm is much more expensive, but it contains vitamins that help improve the skin from the inside, and not just remove visible defects. When choosing a drug, you should look at your needs and the availability of the required amount of funds for the entire course of procedures.
Do allergic reactions to fillers often occur?
This phenomenon is rare, which is explained by the composition of the drugs. It is based on substances normally found in the body. Therefore, adding them from the outside does not cause rejection; the immune system accepts them as its own. But there are still exceptional cases. This should be taken into account by people with allergies to other medications and anesthesia.
Stages of the procedure
First of all, the patient needs to decide on a clinic to provide the appropriate service and choose a specialist. This choice should be approached very responsibly.
Only a qualified cosmetologist can perform Revaness injections. He must have a certificate and license to operate.
Preparation
The procedure is preceded by a preparatory stage lasting several days. It consists of the following steps:
- Examination by a cosmetologist. The patient gets acquainted with the specialist, a visual examination is carried out and the issue of choosing an injection is decided.
- Passing a medical examination. This is a mandatory procedure that helps to identify the presence or absence of health problems in order to eliminate the risk of complications and side effects.
- Preparation for the procedure (starts 3-4 days before the correction). It involves quitting smoking and alcohol, stopping taking certain medications, and refusing to visit the steam room and solarium.
Introduction technology
The entire procedure lasts about 15 minutes. If a specialist treats a large area, the correction may take longer.
Stages:
- Cleansing and disinfecting the skin, marking areas for injections.
- Use of anesthesia (as needed and desired by the patient).
- Opening the package. This happens in such a way that the patient sees its integrity. Until this moment, the drug must be kept at room temperature for half an hour. The drug is used once, otherwise there is a high risk of developing serious complications.
- Before directly introducing the gel, the cosmetologist presses on the piston until a drop of gel appears at the tip of the needle.
- Administration of the drug. The process techniques are varied; the specialist himself will determine the appropriate one.
- Disinfection after injection. Tips for caring for the treated area.
For injections, only thin needles are used. No saline solution is required to dilute the gel. The drug is injected to a certain depth slowly and carefully. After administration, lightly massage the treated area.
Duration of action
The validity period of the Revaness line gels depends on the chosen product and area of application.
On average, from 6 to 24 months. At the end of this period, biodegradation and removal of hyaluronic acid from the body occurs.
