Biorevitalization and mesotherapy in the fight against acne in bodybuilders and fitness models

The use of all kinds of hormonal and steroid drugs by modern athletes has become almost the norm. Only this “norm” often comes up sideways - with all sorts of health problems. Moreover, ailments can be very diverse: some have infertility, some have liver, and some have skin problems... It is the latter that we will talk about in this article...

Acne among bodybuilders and fitness models is the most common problem among athletes who abuse all kinds of hormonal pharmacology and anabolic steroids. What to do if these terrible acne, pimples, boils and other negative manifestations have already made themselves felt?

The development of modern cosmetology is proceeding at a rapid pace. New techniques for maintaining skin and correcting its imperfections are appearing faster than mushrooms growing after a good summer rain. However, many procedures are similar, and not every ordinary person understands the essence of their implementation, takes into account all the nuances and subtleties, and confusion and substitution of definitions arise. One of the brightest subjects of such confusion is the consideration by many of biorevitalization as mesotherapy.

Main differences:

Of course, purely visually, both methods are similar: in both cases, the administration of the active drug is carried out in the same way, that is, through targeted injections. The injection areas are also the same. But this is not the main thing.

Firstly, what is the most basic difference between these two procedures is the method of stimulation. Mesotherapy forces cells to work aggressively: it is approximately also possible to activate cell work simply by injuring the skin with a needle, in response to which the cells begin to regenerate with increased zeal, eliminating the damage. And this process certainly gives a positive result in the form of reducing the number and depth of wrinkles and improving skin texture. However, the cells will not last long in this mode: the resource will be exhausted over time, and wrinkles and sagging skin will again appear.

Secondly, during both mesotherapy and biorevitalization, hyaluronic acid is injected subcutaneously: so what is the difference? And the difference is in the acid itself, which, based on the different molecular weight, can be:

1. low molecular weight;
2. high molecular weight.

The next difference is the concentration of the substance, which ranges from 5 mg/ml to 35 mg/ml.

The third difference is stabilization, which divides hyaluronic acid into:

1. unmodified, in its natural structure;
2. modified (or stabilized) - subjected to certain physical or chemical influences to give it certain properties.

Conditions for maximum performance:

For the most effective implementation of biorevitalization procedures, the following requirements are imposed on hyaluronic acid:

1. high purification (applies to both synthesized acid and acid of animal origin);
2. its molecular weight should be as close as possible to the acid isomer produced by the human body;
3. the acid concentration in the preparations used must be at least 15 mg/ml.

Only if all specified conditions are met, hyaluronic acid not only serves as a filler that removes wrinkles and replenishes the body’s own deficiency of its own substance, but will also have a beneficial effect on: blood vessels and fibroblasts. The cost of biorevitalization, despite the obvious advantages, is not much different from the cost of mesotherapy procedures.

The acid used for mesotherapy is low molecular weight and the administered drugs have a low concentration of its content. In combination with amino acids and vitamin complexes, this allows you to solve the problems of acne, dry skin, pigmentation, and others... However, you cannot count on a long-term effect. And there is no need to talk about the effect on the skin, or more precisely, its structure. When a high-molecular acid is introduced, its residence time in the tissues is longer and the result lasts longer.
