Mesotherapy with VISCODERM SKINKO AND SKINKO E

Reviews about mesotherapy

Anna: “I completed the rejuvenation course with Viscoderm a week ago. To be honest, I’m sitting in complete confusion... There seems to be an effect, wrinkles have really become less noticeable, the tone of the face has evened out, the skin looks fresher. However, I expected something more! I read reviews about Viscoderm Skinco mesotherapy and studied the description of the drug. After the procedure, many girls note the Photoshop effect. I didn’t notice this, and I also struggled with redness for 3 or 4 days. For me, the price of Viscoderm Skinko is slightly overpriced, the result should be a little different.”

Margarita: “I’ve been afraid of the word “injection” since childhood. Just the thought of cosmetic procedures filled me with wild horror. However, I had no other options - the skin around my eyes began to look very bad. Because of the terrible facial wrinkles, I looked like an old grandmother (and I’m only 35 years old). It took me a long time to choose a medicine, a cosmetologist and a clinic. Finally, I finally decided! I don't regret it one bit. The cost of the procedure is about 5,000 rubles. It didn’t hurt, the swelling and bumps disappeared after a couple of days. Now I walk young and beautiful, enjoying life! We are planning the next session of Skinko mesotherapy.”

Progress of the procedure

Before a mesotherapy session at the GMTClinic, a cosmetologist examines the patient’s skin condition and selects the optimal meso-cocktail. In the Viscoderm line, this can be light Skinko for young and thin skin or rich Skinko E for older and thicker skin.

Taking into account the severity of age-related changes and the anatomical characteristics of the patient, the doctor finds bioaesthetic points for administering the drug. In the case of the Skinko product, 19 injections are required; the introduction of the more saturated Skinko E drug requires the use of 21 biologically active points on the face.

The specialist first treats the patient’s skin with an antiseptic and, if necessary, applies a local anesthetic. Injections of the drug are carried out subcutaneously with a thin needle. It is important to note that this type of injection therapy should only be performed by professionals in a medical setting.

Individually for each patient, the cosmetologist selects a course of mesotherapy, which includes on average from 3 to 10 sessions.

Indications and contraindications for the procedure

Viscoderm biorevitalization has its own indications and contraindications. Experts recommend injecting the drug if the patient:

Dull complexion;
Decreased turgor;
Violation of the oval of the face;
Wrinkles of varying degrees of severity;
Skin dehydration.

Reviews about Viscoderm biorevitalization are good - the technique is effective. But it has its contraindications:

Tumors;
Pregnancy and breastfeeding period;
Blood diseases;
Allergy to the component composition;
Infections;
Autoimmune pathologies;
Fever;
Exacerbation of chronic diseases;
Tendency to form keloid scars.

They must be taken into account to avoid complications.

Advantages of mesotherapy with Viscoderm Skinko series preparations

The Skinko series of drugs is administered to the patient’s biologically active points, which requires fewer injections compared to the classic mesotherapy technique. This approach shows its high efficiency, while being much less traumatic. This means that the risk of undesirable consequences in the form of bruises, redness and papules is significantly reduced. Moreover, the procedure itself becomes more comfortable.

Thanks to the skill and professionalism of the GMTClinic specialists, the administration of drugs is easily tolerated and does not cause complications.

Results and duration of the course

After introducing the meso-cocktail into the upper layers of the dermis, it is enriched with nutrients. The skin looks tightened, well-groomed and radiant, the complexion improves and becomes fresh.

The effect of Viscoderm Skinco mesotherapy:

Fine wrinkles disappear, overall tone increases;
Evens out skin tone;
Renewal processes are launched at the cellular level;
The condition of hair and nails improves.

Price "Viscoderm Skinco E" - 5500 rubles.

According to most experts, a complex consisting of 3 procedures is optimal. After each session you need to take a break of 2-4 weeks. This way you can achieve lasting results that will last for six months.

Next, you need to undergo the Viscoderm mesotherapy course again to maintain the effect.

Compatibility with other techniques

According to indications, it is possible to successfully combine the procedure of biocomplementary mesotherapy and biorevitalization for a more pronounced effect. In particular, Skinko series preparations and Profhilo bioremodeling preparation are officially recommended for joint use within the same procedure.

Bioremodeling drug Profhilo is enriched with two types of hyaluronic acid and works excellently, filling the skin with moisture, radiance and youth, providing light lifting. Its combination with minerals, amino acids and vitamins dissolved in hyaluronic acid in Skinko products gives an excellent aesthetic result. The procedure with the simultaneous administration of these drugs gives an even more vivid, lasting and complex effect.

Bioremodeling of the face using Profhilo can be combined in one procedure with the introduction of meso-cocktails, which provides a more lasting and pronounced effect. At the GMTClinic, we offer to combine Profhilo injections with Skinko series mesopreparations. This gives our patients not only excellent results, but also additional benefits in the form of saving time on visits to a cosmetologist and an attractive cost of a complex procedure.

Comparison with analogues

An alternative to the Viscoderm system is the IAL-System biorevitalization or, as an option, the drug Collost.

Ial systems contain hyaluron in varying degrees of concentration, and the resulting effect lasts up to 8 months. But if Viscoderm can be used from the age of 25, then Ial of the ACP system is intended for anti-aging therapy and is used in women over 45 years of age.

Collost biorevitalization is inferior to Viscoderm, since collost is a solution of protein of animal origin. Accordingly, 2 weeks before the procedure, a test for allergies to the drug is done. If there is no negative reaction, biorevitalization itself can be prescribed.

Drug review

Viscoderm is called the first product for adapted biorevitalization of skin of varying degrees of aging. It is based on high-quality native hyaluronic acid. Its advantage is that it is produced synthetically (that is, no animal was harmed).

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):
For medicine, the significance of synthetic hyaluronic acid lies in the absence of allergic elements. The Viscoderm line of products contains a super-purified form of hyaluronic acid, so it practically does not cause allergic reactions.

The drug is available in different forms; it can be used to prevent photoaging, as well as to get rid of deep age-related changes.

Another positive property is that it restores the skin after aggressive effects (for example, chemical peeling, laser resurfacing or plastic surgery).

Compound

The main component of Viscoderm is unstabilized hyaluronic acid. It is purified from protein compounds to prevent allergic reactions.

Also included in the drug:

B vitamins: inositol, choline chloride, folic acid;
mineral elements: copper, manganese, zinc, iron, tin and calcium;
amino acids: glycine, arginine, isoleucine, alanine.

This composition has a positive effect on the skin, and the effect appears immediately.

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):
Due to amino acids, vitamins and minerals, Viscoderm group preparations are recommended for people with particularly sensitive skin. For oily skin, the effectiveness of the product is reduced due to the fact that the additional ingredients quickly dissolve.

Manufacturers

The drug Viscoderm in concentrations of 0.8, 1.6 or 2.0% is produced in Italy by IBSA.

It appeared in Russia in 2008, but was approved by the FDA only in 2014. Currently, it is considered reliable and safe and meets all quality standards.

How is the procedure performed in clinics?

When choosing a clinic, special attention should be paid to the qualifications of the doctor. During the consultation, the cosmetologist assesses the condition of the skin and determines the optimal preparation. Anamnesis will reveal possible contraindications, chronic diseases, allergies.

Before revitalization, the doctor talks in detail about the procedure, and the patient signs an informed consent. The outpatient card contains data on the drug, application zones, and administration regimens.

Stages:

Professional products are used for makeup removal; surface peeling is possible to enhance the effect of the procedure.
