Description
Belotero Revive Dermal Filler by Merz Aesthetics 1×1 mL
Belotero® Revive is a hyaluronic acid–based injectable dermal filler medical device developed by Merz Aesthetics for skin revitalisation, hydration, and improvement of skin quality. It combines cross-linked hyaluronic acid with glycerol, forming a formulation intended to enhance dermal hydration, elasticity, and resilience. Belotero Revive is indicated for the treatment of early signs of skin ageing, such as dullness, fine lines, and reduced skin elasticity, rather than for volumetric correction or contour augmentation.
The gel is designed to integrate evenly within the superficial to mid-dermal layers, supporting hydration and improving skin texture while maintaining natural skin movement. As part of the Belotero dermal filler range, Belotero Revive focuses on improving skin condition and dermal quality rather than creating lift or structural volume.
What Belotero® Revive Is Similar To
Belotero Revive can be regarded alongside other skin quality–focused injectable treatments that aim to improve hydration, elasticity, and overall dermal condition rather than provide significant volumetric augmentation. Products in this category are commonly used for skin revitalisation and prevention of early ageing changes, particularly in patients who do not require traditional volumising fillers.
Unlike classic volumising Belotero fillers or other hyaluronic acid dermal fillers designed to restore contour and structure, Belotero Revive dermal filler is formulated to distribute smoothly within superficial dermal layers. Its inclusion of glycerol differentiates it from standard HA-only formulations by supporting enhanced water retention and dermal comfort.

FAQ
1. How does Belotero® Revive work in the skin?
Belotero Revive delivers hyaluronic acid and glycerol into the superficial dermis, where it supports hydration, improves skin elasticity, and enhances overall skin quality. The formulation integrates smoothly within the tissue to revitalise dehydrated or dull skin.
2. Is Belotero Revive the same as a traditional dermal filler?
No. Unlike traditional Belotero fillers used for volume or contour correction, Belotero Revive dermal filler is designed for skin revitalisation and hydration, not for restoring facial volume or reshaping contours.
3. How long do the results of Belotero Revive last?
Results are generally reported to last several months. Longevity varies depending on skin condition, injection technique, and treatment frequency, and maintenance treatments may be required.
4. Can Belotero Revive be used on areas other than the face?
Yes. Manufacturer information includes use on the neck, décolletage, and hands, where improvement in skin quality and hydration is desired. Practitioners should confirm suitability based on local regulatory guidance.
5. What safety considerations should practitioners keep in mind?
As with all injectable medical devices, strict aseptic technique, knowledge of anatomy, and careful patient assessment are essential. Care must be taken to avoid intravascular injection and inappropriate placement.
