Yvoire (Ivor) is a line of drugs intended for non-surgical modeling and biorevitalization of the face and body. They are made on the basis of high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and belong to the latest generation of fillers.
Yvoire: new generation fillers
Reviews from patients indicate the high effectiveness of products under the Yvoire brand, as well as the absence of pain during drug administration and the need for additional correction due to poor distribution of the gel under the skin (which is typical for some 1st and 2nd generation fillers).
One of the advantages of Yvoire fillers over other hyaluronic preparations is the use of pharmaceutical quality hyaluronate: this means that the substance used goes through several stages of purification, and the acid itself is specially synthesized in the laboratory, which reduces the risk of allergies and rejection reactions, as is the case with animal hyaluronic acid origin.
Description of fillers
The Ivor line of fillers is designed to correct age-related changes and solve other aesthetic problems. The manufacturer is the Korean concern LG.
The effectiveness of the drugs is due to the non-animal hyaluronic acid contained in the composition, obtained during microbiological fermentation.
In this regard, the product is not rejected by body tissues and is maximally absorbed after injection into the skin. A distinctive feature is the stability of the component composition achieved by HESH technologies.
In addition to sodium hyaluronate and phosphate buffer. Some products in this line contain lidocaine, the presence of which minimizes pain during the procedure.
Thanks to the unique arrangement of hyaluronic acid compounds in the form of cross-links, not only a rejuvenation effect with skin smoothing is achieved, but also, if necessary, additional volume in the corrected area.
The role of hyaluronic acid in cosmetology
Hyaluronic acid is one of the most important elements of connective tissue, necessary to maintain the proliferative ability of dermal cells, sufficient hydration (moisture), as well as the trophic properties of the skin and its ability to regenerate. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide and is present in high concentrations in all human biological fluids (including vaginal lubrication in women), as well as in the elastic gel mass that fills the joint cavity and ensures its mobility (intra-articular lubrication or synovial fluid).
Hyaluronic acid prevents skin dehydration and preserves its youth
An important property of sodium hyaluronate (the so-called salt of hyaluronic acid, which is used in the production of cosmetic gels, suspensions and solutions) is the ability to bind to low molecular weight specific nuclear proteins and form particles with a negative charge that attract and absorb water molecules. If there is a sufficient amount of hyaluronic acid in the body (at least 16 g for a person weighing 70 kg), the skin looks healthy, has an even complexion, without signs of inflammation and hypersecretion of sebum.
The introduction of hyaluronic acid preparations directly under the skin allows you to solve a number of aesthetic problems: smooth out wrinkles (the filler fills the voids formed in the loose collagen layer, which leads to smoothing out existing folds and creases), improve complexion, get rid of increased dryness and even correct problem areas, arising against the background of local soft tissue deficiency.
Varieties
Fillers are presented in several products, the results of each of them can vary significantly.
Yvoire Hydro
Due to the effect it has on skin cells, Hydro filler is one of the products intended for biorevitalization; it is introduced accordingly - superficially, without penetrating deep into the tissue.
It is distinguished by a rather “soft” structure and a small concentration of hyaluron, which allows it to delicately spread in the intercellular space without creating a volumization effect. In this regard, its use is acceptable for relatively young skin.
With the help of the drug you can get rid of small wrinkles (including expression lines) and normalize skin hydration. Additionally, the filler contributes to the overall health of the skin.
Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):
Filler Ivor hydro is used for revitalization, that is, increasing the viability of skin cells. This occurs due to the moistening of the tissue; in a humid environment, energy processes are activated faster. But there is no visible smoothing of deep skin furrows.
Yvoire Classic
The series includes three varieties: Classic, Classic S and Classic plus.
- Ivor Classic is a drug with an increased level of hyaluronic acid (22 mg/ml), which makes it possible to correct more serious age-related skin deformations. These include pronounced nasolacrimal grooves, noticeable facial relief and a lack of volume in some areas associated with the natural aging of the epidermis.
- Classic S has a denser structure. The drug is used in most cases on delicate areas by inserting a syringe into the deep layers of the skin. It is used to reinforce the neck area and eliminate wrinkles in the eye and lip areas.
- Classic plus differs from its “brothers” in that it contains lidocaine. The product is presented as a hybrid of one- and two-phase gels, with which you can also restore your skin to its former youth and make your lips fuller and more seductive.
Yvoire Volume, Volume S, Volume plus
All three fillers have an almost identical composition, which is based on hyaluronic acid in a percentage of 22 mg/ml. The only difference is Volume marked “plus”, which is supplemented with an anesthetic substance – lidocaine.
Yvoire Volume fillers are intended for aesthetic facial plastic surgery; they have a denser texture compared to previously described products in this series.
With their help, the problem of deep wrinkles is solved not only in the face, but throughout the body, the relief in the nasolacrimal grooves is eliminated, the neck is reinforced and the lips are enlarged. The drug itself is injected by a cosmetologist into the deep layers of the skin.
Yvoire Contour
Filler Contour stands at the top among other products in terms of density. It contains cross-linked hyaluronic acid in a proportion of 22 mg/ml.
It is used by cosmetologists to model the relief of the face by introducing it into the subcutaneous layer or onto the periosteum. During such manipulations, you can change your appearance beyond recognition - make your cheekbones, chin or cheeks more voluminous.
General information
Yvoire products are manufactured by the largest South Korean brand LG Life Sciences. In addition to its own production, the company also has a scientific department in which all the necessary research is carried out. The company produces medical and cosmetic preparations and vaccines.
The use of hyaluronic acid (hereinafter referred to as HA) has been developed at LG Life Sciences since 1990. Many years of research have made it possible to obtain pure synthetic material of high quality with minimal risks of rejection by the human body. The products have the necessary safety certificates
Positive reviews characterize all South Korean Yvoire products, however, the most popular are fillers for filling wrinkles and increasing the volume of soft tissues. They contain HA molecules that have cross-links, due to which they form a larger volume and allow them to achieve a pronounced effect.

Yvoire Hydro
Yvoire Hydro is a modern drug for biorevitalization, used to moisturize and smooth the skin. The drug Ivor Hydro is administered superficially and has good plasticity. Contains non-crosslinked (non-cross-linked) hyaluronic acid. Used in a course of 4 procedures once every two weeks.
Biorevitalizant of the latest generation. Not cross-linked, high concentration 20 mg/ml.
HA molecules attract and retain water, thus achieving the effect of moisturizing and straightening the skin. But the concentration in the medication is 20 mg/ml. and the gel form allows hyaluronic acid to remain in the skin for a longer period (up to 10-14 days). During this time, HA molecules manage to activate fibroblasts that produce collagen, elastin and their own hyaluronic acid, which allows the skin to become more youthful and radiant.
Advantages
All positive aspects of the Ivor series were assessed by Roszdravnadzor, EDQM, KFDA and FDA.
The very first advantage is elasticity and resistance to deformation, which allows injections to be made in areas of the face that are subject to facial activity, without fear of getting an undesirable effect.
When choosing a drug, the fact that they are 100% biodegradable also plays a significant role. This allows the components to disintegrate over time without consequences. Therefore, the product is one of the safest and hypoallergenic.
Also among the advantages, many cosmetologists consider the possibility of facial plastic surgery without the use of anesthesia, because the gel is injected into the epidermis with a very thin needle, which does not cause much discomfort during the session.
Buying filler
You can buy Ivor filler in any online store, but preference should be given to the official distributor of Korean products in Russia - the INNOVATION company, which will allow you to be confident in purchasing a truly high-quality product.
The second way to purchase an injection is to go directly to the salon or clinic where the procedure is supposed to be performed. In this case, responsibility for the quality of the product passes to the shoulders of cosmetologists.
The cost of the drug will depend on its type. Thus, the average price for a Yvoire Volume, Classic and Hydro syringe fluctuates around 5,000 rubles, and on Countur the cost can be increased to 7,000 rubles.

Description of the procedure
Both biorevitalization with the drug Hydro, and plastic with other gels presented in the Ivor line of fillers, is carried out on an outpatient basis without placing the client in a hospital.
Preparation
The preparatory stage consists of an initial consultation with a cosmetologist with a description of all diseases on the part of the patient, as well as, if necessary, taking tests.
At this stage, you should inform the specialist about all recent illnesses, including herpes (preliminary prescription of preventive medications is possible), and medications taken.
Progress of the procedure
- Drawing up a contract for the provision of services and initial consultation with a specialist.
- Disinfection of the skin with an antiseptic and, if desired by the client, treatment with an anesthetic cream.
- When performing plastic surgery (this stage is skipped for biorevitalization), marking of the corrected zone and the place of needle insertion is planned.
- Opening the drug and installing the needle on the syringe.
- Introduction of the gel in a localized area to a depth taking into account the characteristics of the drug used.
- Final disinfection.
- Upon completion of the procedure, the cosmetologist tells the client in detail about the recommendations for the rehabilitation period.
Duration of action
On average, the event lasts from 20 minutes to an hour, depending on the nature and characteristics of the procedure performed.
For maximum effect from Ivor Hydro biorevitalization, several injection sessions should be performed at intervals of 1-2 weeks.
The number of approaches is determined individually by the cosmetologist during examination. The result of contour plastic surgery is achieved in one step.
Security measures
Despite the fact that filler injections are considered the simplest minimally invasive procedure, they should only be performed by a qualified doctor who has a good command of the topographic anatomy of the facial muscles and has undergone special training. To minimize the risks of side effects and unpleasant consequences, it is important to follow certain safety measures during the procedure.
- It is prohibited to use a medicine that shows signs of sterility violation (opened packaging, cracks on the surface of the syringe, etc.), improper storage or expired expiration date.
- Massage, which is a mandatory part of the procedure, is not performed if bruises or bruises appear after the puncture.
- If repeated modeling is necessary, it is important to maintain an interval of at least 10 days.
- When collecting anamnesis, it is mandatory to ask about undergoing aggressive procedures 2-3 weeks before the injection (deep laser resurfacing, chemical peeling, etc.). It is permissible to perform a puncture only if the patient has no signs of violation of the integrity of the skin, and also if more than two weeks have passed since the hardware cosmetic procedures.
The procedure should only be performed by a qualified professional and under sterile conditions.
Important! If accidental damage to a blood vessel occurs during the procedure, the needle must be removed immediately. If the suspension enters the vascular lumen, it can lead to blockage and rapid development of tissue necrosis.
Photos before and after
Healing period
During the rehabilitation period, slight redness and itching are considered natural. In the case of biorevitalization, the appearance of papules is characteristic.
The discomfort finally goes away after a week. However, during the healing period it is necessary to adhere to a number of restrictions.
Do not do it:
- drink alcohol;
- use decorative cosmetics (skin cleansing is possible with delicate products, with the exception of scrubs;
- During the first 24 hours it is not recommended to contact water;
- subject the body to physical stress;
- visit the swimming pool, solarium, sauna.
Teosyal line products
Less radical interventions include drugs from the TEOSYAL line, developed in Sweden. The basis of these drugs, like those described above, is hyaluronic acid. This composition guarantees a fairly long period of action and ideal compatibility with the patient’s body. These drugs are divided into regular and deep.
The line of drugs from the TEOXANE company is represented by 8 products:
- TeosyalUltimate - volumizes the cheek-zygomatic area, models the chin area, restores facial contours;
- TeosyalUltraDeep - smoothes deep wrinkles, eliminates creases in the area of the nasolabial fold and nasolacrimal groove, provides lifting at the early stage of ptosis of the soft tissues of the face;
- TeosyalKiss - harmonizes the mental zone by modeling the volume and shape of the lips;
- TeosyalFirstLines - designed for the correction of wrinkles in the most delicate areas of the face: “crow’s feet”, “marionette” wrinkles, a small network of wrinkles in the corners of the lips;
- TeosyalDeepLines - fills deep wrinkles: nasolabial folds, nasolacrimal and chin grooves; eliminates skin defects in the form of recesses and sunken scars;
- TeosyalGlobalAction - aimed at correcting linear wrinkles - around the mouth, between the eyebrows;
- TeosyalMeso is a mesotherapy drug aimed at moisturizing and nourishing the skin.
It is worth noting that quite a few factors influence the final result of the procedure. This includes age, lifestyle, condition and structural composition of the skin. But a lot also depends on the technology of introducing the drug under the skin. If you use drugs that dissolve on their own, then you need to re-correct after 6-12 months.
Expression wrinkles will begin to appear somewhat earlier than the designated period. If lip volumization was performed, correction will be necessary after six months.
