What is BELOTERO Revive?

BELOTERO Revive is an HA Injectable for Skin Quality that combines Hyaluronic Acid with Glycerol.

When injected into the skin, HA helps retain water, while Glycerol supports moisture attraction and retention.

The product contains Cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid with Glycerol, designed to improve hydration and skin quality rather than focus on adding volume or sculpting facial contours like conventional Filler.

Its main goals are

  • More hydrated skin
  • Smoother-looking skin
  • Less visible superficial lines
  • Improved skin elasticity and firmness
  • Fresher, healthier-looking skin

What can BELOTERO Revive help with?

It may suit people beginning to experience skin-quality concerns such as

  • Dry skin
  • Dehydrated skin
  • Skin that lacks a plump appearance
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Fine lines
  • Skin beginning to lose elasticity
  • Dull or lacklustre-looking skin
  • Early signs of sun-related skin changes

The main focus is Hydration + Skin Quality, rather than changing facial shape.

What do HA + Glycerol do?

Hyaluronic Acid 20 mg/ml

HA binds water and helps the skin retain moisture.

BELOTERO Revive uses Cross-linked HA, unlike some Skinbooster products that use Non-cross-linked HA.

Glycerol 17.5 mg/ml

Glycerol is a Humectant that helps attract and retain water in the skin.

Together with HA, it supports hydration and a plumper skin appearance.

The formulation’s key feature is HA + Glycerol in the same product.

What is CPM® Technology?

CPM stands for Cohesive Polydensified Matrix.

It is a BELOTERO technology that creates areas of different densities within a single HA gel.

The aim is to help the gel distribute and integrate well within the skin.

In Revive, this technology is used in a formulation focused on skin quality rather than volume creation.

Is BELOTERO Revive a Skinbooster or Filler?

The manufacturer classifies BELOTERO Revive as an HA Dermal Filler / Injectable Resorbable Implant, while its use focuses on Skin Revitalization.

Simply put, it is an HA product for skin-quality care.

It is not designed to

  • Sculpt the chin
  • Fill the nose
  • Increase Projection
  • Create a defined jawline
  • Add cheek volume like structural Filler

Where is BELOTERO Revive used?

The product’s main indication is facial skin.

It suits areas with

  • Dryness
  • Fine lines
  • Skin Texture that is becoming uneven
  • Reduced elasticity
  • Early signs of sun-related skin changes

Small amounts of the product are distributed across the area being treated.

Can BELOTERO Revive give skin a hydrated glow?

It directly addresses hydration.

Product research has found changes in

  • Hydration
  • Skin Firmness
  • Elasticity
  • Skin Roughness
  • Tone and Radiance

The visible effect is therefore plumper, more hydrated and fresher-looking skin, rather than fullness from added volume.

Can BELOTERO Revive help with wrinkles?

It is suitable for Superficial Fine Lines, or shallow lines.

As hydration and elasticity improve, fine surface lines can appear smoother.

However, concerns such as

  • Lines caused by muscle movement
  • Deep folds
  • Volume loss

May require another treatment that addresses the underlying cause more directly.

Can BELOTERO Revive help with pores?

Research on BELOTERO Revive reports that injections into the skin can help improve Skin Quality and Skin Texture.

As the skin becomes more hydrated and smoother, pores may appear less noticeable in some people.

However, directly “reducing pore size” is not the product’s main indication.

How long can BELOTERO Revive last?

Product information states that results can last up to approximately 9 months

The actual duration depends on

  • Number of treatment sessions
  • Initial skin condition
  • Treatment area
  • Age
  • Skin dryness
  • Lifestyle
  • Individual response

BELOTERO Revive research also found continuing changes in hydration and skin quality during follow-up through 36 weeks, or approximately 9 months.

The website can therefore use the wording

Results can last up to approximately 9 months

Without stating that everyone will experience the same full 9-month duration.

How many sessions are needed?

The product information recommends approximately1–3 sessions
Spaced approximately4 weeks apart

The number of sessions depends on the initial skin condition.

If skin dehydration is less pronounced, fewer sessions may be planned.

For ongoing Skin Quality care, however, a doctor may recommend a course.

Can I have just one session?

Yes.

Both single-session and multiple-session approaches have been studied, with changes in hydration observed after treatment.

Overall, however, the data suggest that multiple sessions can produce more noticeable and sustained Skin Quality improvements in some people.

This does not mean everyone needs the same 3 sessions.

When will I see results?

After injection, HA and Glycerol begin supporting hydration from the initial period.

As needle-related effects subside, the skin gradually looks

  • More hydrated
  • Plumper
  • Smoother
  • Fresher

Changes in elasticity and Skin Quality become more apparent over time and with the number of sessions.

Does BELOTERO Revive contain Lidocaine?

No.

BELOTERO Revive is a Lidocaine-free formulation.

This differs from some BELOTERO Filler formulations that contain Lidocaine.

Appropriate measures to reduce discomfort can be provided before treatment.

How does BELOTERO Revive differ from conventional Filler?

BELOTERO Revive

Focuses on

  • Hydration
  • Skin Quality
  • Fine Lines
  • Elasticity
  • Firmness

Structural Filler

Focuses on

  • Adding volume
  • Filling deep folds
  • Sculpt the chin
  • Enhancing cheek volume
  • Reshaping facial contours

Both use HA, but their injection goals differ.

How does BELOTERO Revive differ from Definisse Hydro?

Both are used for Skin Quality care, but their formulas differ.

BELOTERO Revive

  • Cross-linked HA 20 mg/ml
  • Glycerol 17.5 mg/ml
  • Uses CPM Technology
  • No Lidocaine.
  • Hydration results have follow-up data through approximately 9 months

Definisse Hydrobooster

  • Non-cross-linked HA 18 mg/ml
  • Glycerol 20 mg/ml
  • No Lidocaine.
  • Focuses on Hydration and Skin Quality

The main differences are HA structure and formulation concentrations.

How does BELOTERO Revive differ from Restylane Vital Light?

BELOTERO Revive

  • Cross-linked HA 20 mg/ml
  • Glycerol 17.5 mg/ml
  • No Lidocaine.
  • Focuses on facial skin and Fine Lines

Restylane Vital Light

  • Contains Lidocaine 0.3%
  • No Glycerol
  • A gel designed for Skinbooster use, particularly in areas with relatively thin skin

Both support Skin Quality, but use different formulations and technologies.

Will there be bumps after injection?

After injection, you may experience

  • Small bumps at injection sites
  • Swelling
  • Redness
  • Needle marks
  • Bruising
  • Mild pain or tightness

The appearance depends on the technique and amount used.

Most injection-related effects gradually subside over time.

Can BELOTERO Revive dissolve?

Yes.

The product is an absorbable form of Hyaluronic Acid and gradually breaks down naturally.

If needed, Hyaluronidase can help dissolve HA following a doctor’s assessment.

Who may be suitable for BELOTERO Revive?

It may suit people with

  • Dry skin
  • Dehydrated skin
  • Early Fine Lines
  • Skin that lacks a plump appearance
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Early loss of elasticity
  • A wish to improve Skin Quality without adding facial volume
