Bio-Remodelling Injection Treatments

This treatment is effective for anyone with concerns about skin ageing, wrinkles, texture and skin dryness and dehydration. As we age, there is a decline in collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid that can lead to structural and functional changes to the skin. This can lead to a decrease in barrier function and hydration, increasing pore size, wrinkles and textural changes. Prior to any treatments at Kaya Cosmedica in South Melbourne, a detailed consultation with your cosmetic injector is performed to assess suitability for treatment.

This bio-remodelling injectable treatment is not recommended for people who have an allergy to the ingredients, have infections or other skin conditions in the treatment area, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a compromised immune system.

During your initial consultation at our South Melbourne cosmetic clinic, your injector will assess your skin and determine your suitability for this bio-remodelling injection. They will also discuss the treatment process, aftercare, risks and benefits, cost and results expectations.

As an example of a typical facial treatment, the BAP technique is utilised. With this technique, there are five standard injection points on each side of the face: the upper cheek, lower cheek, nasal base, jawline and chin. This technique was developed to maximise treatment efficiency and patient comfort. Treatment typically takes around 10 minutes.

At Kaya Cosmedica, we take all steps to ensure you are comfortable and well cared for. This injectable is gently administered using a micro-injection technique and an ultra-fine needle to minimise discomfort. Any injection can sting, but the pain is usually mild and brief. Options for pain relief can be discussed during your consultation.

This treatment is a minimally-invasive treatment with minimal downtime. There will be mosquito bite-like swelling at the injection points, which can last up to six to eight hours. This settles with time and there is minimal bruising.

Most patients can comfortably return to work, school or social activities after their appointment. You will be given aftercare guidelines before you leave our clinic, including instructions to contact us at any time should you have concerns or questions.

This injectable is TGA-approved and has a good safety profile, but no treatment is without risk. After this treatment, some patients experience redness, swelling, bruising, itching, lumpiness and/or tenderness around the injection sites. These reactions vary from person to person and are common responses to injections. In most cases, post-treatment reactions are mild to moderate and short-lived with good aftercare.

Rare but more serious risks include persistent lumps and skin infection. Your provider will discuss these with you during your consultation.

It can be paired with any of our other injectable treatments, including anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers and collagen stimulators. These treatments can be done in the same appointment.

If you wish for further improvements in skin texture and firmness, ask your provider about including chemical peels, microneedling, Ultherapy, Tixel or BroadBand Light (BBL) therapy in your long-term treatment plan.
