Bio-remodelling Treatment
Bio- remodeller is a term you will likely have seen and heard of sometime in the last 12 months. But what exactly is it and who is it suitable for?
As per the TGA guidelines, we aren’t allowed to discuss or advertise brand names. As such, this product is advertised using the mechanism of action- it literally “remodels” the dermis of the skin to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, the two essential proteins that help to maintain firmness and elasticity in the skin. I like to call it an injectable skin treatment.
The product is made of a high concentration of hyaluronic acid. It is important to note however that unlike traditional dermal fillers it does not add any volume to the face. Instead, it helps to improve skin hydration, texture and glow, and to reduce the dry, crepey appearance of ageing skin.
The treatment itself is quite simple. 5 specific injections are given on each side of the face. These are recommended in order to target the areas of greatest impact as the product then spreads like honey under the skin. This is repeated at 3-4 weeks after the initial appointment and it is at 4 weeks after your second treatment that you will then be able to notice the best results. Some people may be candidates for a 3rd treatment and this will be discussed during your consultation.
After your treatment, some small bumps may be visible that can take 1-2 days to subside. Bruising, redness and swelling are always a possibility after cosmetic injectables too, but otherwise there is very little downtime. It is recommended that repeat treatments take place every 3-6 months in order to maintain optimal results.
So, is it for you? If you’re looking to improve the overall quality and texture of your skin, then absolutely! It is a safe and effective way to achieve a more youthful and radiant complexion. However, as with all cosmetic injectables, it cannot be used on pregnant or breastfeeding women.
