With a focus on high-molecular-weight HA and spherical particle design, Revanesse® seamlessly integrates into the tissue, reducing the risk of adverse reactions. This aligns perfectly with Skin Renewal's commitment to delivering safe, effective, high-quality patient results.

Revanesse® dermal filler combines high molecular weight (HMW) HA with minimal levels of BDDE (Butanediol Diglycidyl Ether), ensuring a product that closely mimics the body's natural HA. This alignment reduces the likelihood of immune system recognition and adverse reactions.

High Molecular Weight HA: HMW HA is integral in Revanesse® formulations. It stabilises the gel while minimising the need for BDDE, making it biocompatible and less likely to be identified as a foreign substance by the immune system.
Proprietary Wet Milling Process: This process creates spherical HA particles with reduced surface area. Spherical particles are essential as they integrate smoothly into the tissue, lowering the risk of inflammation and foreign body reactions.
Optimised Purification: Revanesse® undergoes a unique 7-day dialysis process to remove residual BDDE and toxins, resulting in a purer product with a neutralised pH and balanced osmolality. This meticulous purification ensures the performance and safety Revanesse® is known for.
Customisable Rheology: By altering cross-linking degrees and particle size and incorporating linear HA, Revanesse® tailor their fillers to meet specific application needs. This customisation enhances the gel’s properties, making it suitable for various aesthetic treatments.

Revanesse®: Designed for Safety and Performance

The smooth, spherical HA particles in Revanesse® are scientifically proven to promote better tissue integration and significantly reduce the risk of triggering foreign body reactions. This design ensures the filler performs effectively while maintaining a high safety profile.

Clinical trials demonstrate that patients treated with Revanesse® experience less swelling and pain at the injection site compared to those treated with comparator products. This outcome underscores the superior biocompatibility and patient comfort associated with Revanesse®.

questions

Revanesse® Dermal Filler treatments are available in Gauteng at the Morningside, Parkhurst, Rosebank, Bedfordview, Fourways, West Rand, Irene, Waterfall, Irene, Lynnwood and Brooklyn clinics, as well as in the Western Cape at Cape Quarter, Claremont, Constantia, Century City, Stellenbosch, Paarl and Willowbridge clinics, and Kwa-Zulu Natal at the Ballito, Durban and Umhlanga clinics.

What happens when you stop using dermal fillers?

When you stop using dermal fillers, your skin will gradually return to its natural state over time. Your body absorbs the fillers, and the enhanced volume and smoothness will diminish. There are no long-term adverse effects, but you may notice the reappearance of wrinkles and volume loss that were previously treated.

Are dermal fillers painful?

The level of discomfort from dermal fillers varies among individuals. Most fillers contain a local anaesthetic to minimise pain during the procedure. Patients typically experience a mild to moderate sensation of pressure or a slight pinch. Your Skin Renewal doctor can apply a numbing cream to reduce discomfort further.

What are the risks of dermal fillers?

While dermal fillers are generally safe, potential risks include swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. In rare cases, lumps, infections, or allergic reactions may occur.

How many dermal fillers do you need?

The number of dermal filler treatments depends on the individual's aesthetic goals, the areas being treated, and the type of filler used. Typically, patients may require 1 to 2 syringes per treatment area, but a consultation with your Skin Renewal doctor will provide a personalised treatment plan.
