With age and sun damage, the skin of the body can become loose, wrinkly and appear dehydrated and thin. The skin quality in areas such as the neck, décolletage, hands and knees are a common concern. Biorevitalisation is a minimally invasive procedure that involves tiny injections of hyaluronic acid (HA), vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants into the upper layers of the skin.

At your Skin Plumping / Smoothing consultation with us, we will assess your skin, discuss your skin concerns and make a treatment plan to address your skin needs. At your treatment appointment, your practitioner will discuss the steps of treatment and take you through the process of consent. We will then clean the skin and take pre-treatment photographs. You will be given a dressing gown and towel to protect your clothing. Numbing cream is applied and left on for approximately 20 minutes. The skin is then cleaned and the treatment is started. You may feel some mild stinging, but this is not painful. The treatment takes approximately 20 minutes to do. At the end of treatment, the practitioner will apply soothing cream and an LED light. We recommend that you use simple moisturisers and sunblock for 3-5 days after treatment.
Biorevitalisation is a safe and effective treatment to improve skin hydration, vibrancy, pigmentation and signs of ageing. The treatment is suitable for all skin types. Due to the use of numbing cream, we do not recommend this treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
For optimal results from you Skin Plumping / Smoothing treatment, most patients will require 3 sessions (approximately 1 session every 3 weeks).
Most people will notice that their skin is more vibrant and dewy the day after treatment.
The results of one session will usually last for 3-4 weeks. The results of a course of treatment can last for 3-6 months. We do recommend regular maintenance to maintain optimal results.
The treatment is not painful. Some people may feel a mild stinging during the treatment.
There is some redness, small bumps (from the fluid deposited in the skin) and possibly some bruising. The redness and bumps will usually settle by the following day; bruising may take longer. Most people can continue with normal work and social activities a day after treatment.
Biorevitalisation is carried out by our experienced doctors.
We recommend that you pause any treatments like retinol, tretinoin, salicylic acid or glycolic for 5 days prior treatment.
