With age, the face loses its firmness, volume and youthful contour. The skin becomes thinner, wrinkles appear, and the oval begins to droop. For many people, this is a natural but unwanted aging process. Fortunately, modern aesthetic medicine offers a solution to regain a youthful appearance - without a scalpel or long convalescence. We are talking about facial biovolumetry.
What exactly is biovolumetry? How does it work? Who is it designed for? We answer all your questions.
What is facial biovolumetry?
Biovolumetry is a modern procedure on the borderline of aesthetic and regenerative medicine. Its main purpose is to restoration of lost facial volume, oval improvement and skin firming - no scalpel, no incisions, no long recovery period.
Unlike classic volumetrics, which uses only hyaluronic acid, biovolumetry is based on the use of natural, biostimulating preparations, such as calcium hydroxyapatite or polylactic acid. They act not only as fillers, but also stimulate the body to produce its own collagen and elastin, the substances responsible for the firmness and youthfulness of the skin.
How does biovolumetry work?
The procedure involves administering the product with a thin needle or cannula into selected areas of the face - most commonly the cheek area, jawline, temples, chin or tear valley. The product immediately restores volume in areas that have "sagged" or collapsed with age.
But that's just the beginning - in the weeks to come there are biological activation of fibroblasts, which begin to produce new collagen fibers. The skin becomes denser, firmer and better toned. The lifting effect deepens gradually, giving a natural and lasting result.
For whom is the biovolumetry procedure intended?
Facial biovolumetry is ideal for people who:
notice a sagging facial oval in themselves,
Have sunken cheeks or marionette wrinkles,
want to lift and firm the skin without surgical intervention,
prefer natural effects without exaggeration,
are looking for a treatment with longer-lasting results than classic fillers.
It's also a great option for patients who are approaching facial modeling for the first time and don't want to risk an exaggerated effect.
What are the results of facial biovolumetry?
The effects are visible almost immediately after treatment, but their full intensity develops in 4-8 weeks. During this time, the skin is gradually remodeled.
The most common results are:
Visible lifting of the facial oval (lifting effect),
filling sunken cheeks,
improving skin tone,
Reduction of marionette wrinkles and nasolabial furrows,
Improving facial proportions and contours,
A natural, fresh look without the mask effect.
The effect can last from 12 to as long as 24 months, depending on the type of product used and the individual characteristics of the body.
What does the treatment look like step by step?
1. patient consultation and qualification
Before the procedure, a consultation with a specialist is necessary. The doctor will assess the condition of the skin, discuss the patient's needs and select the appropriate product. This is also the moment to rule out contraindications.
2. skin preparation
The procedure takes place under local anesthesia - usually in the form of an anesthetic cream. The skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared for application.
3. administration of the preparation
The product is administered with a thin needle or cannula. The procedure takes about 30-45 minutes. After the procedure, you can return to your daily activities.
4. postoperative recommendations
After the procedure, there may be slight bruising, swelling or tenderness at the injection sites. These symptoms disappear within a few days. During this time, avoid:
intense physical exertion,
sauna, solarium and swimming pool,
facial massage,
sun exposure.
