Injection contouring is considered an excellent replacement for surgical interventions. Using various fillers, you can form the desired relief and model the contours. The popularity of gel fillers provokes regular replenishment of the product range of filler products. Recently, Korean manufacturers have been actively offering their developments. Dermaren is one of them. Gels Dermaren Lumi, AZ are not inferior to European analogues in quality, efficiency and product safety are at the highest level.
Description of drugs
The manufacturer of Dermaren fillers is Across from South Korea. Products for dermal filling are created using the latest technologies, which allows you to achieve excellent results and compete with famous brands of similar products.
The composition of Dermaren filling products is classic for new generation substances: sodium hyaluronate of non-animal origin, saline solution, stabilizer. All gels in the basic line of this manufacturer are supplemented with lidocaine. This minimizes discomfort during the procedure.
Hyaluronic acid used in Dermaren fillers is characterized by a special structure: spherical molecules united in long chains that make up highly organized, dense lattices. This allows the substance to be more plastic, remain in tissues longer, and ensure high control over the administration process. Dermaren gels are medium density fillers.
Dermaren products are packaged in hermetically sealed 1.1 ml syringes. The box contains 1 unit of substance, a 27–30G needle, and instructions with a description.
Feedback on Dermaren Sub-Q
“I hesitated for a long time to undergo cheekbone contouring, but after several successful procedures for increasing lip volume with hyaluronic acid, I finally decided.
Consult a doctor in advance. He will tell you the stages of the procedure, which gel to choose, what effect to expect, and determine whether there are any contraindications to giving injections.
First, anesthesia is performed. A special ointment is applied to the cheekbones (lotions are applied to the injection sites) for twenty minutes. The package with the gel is opened in front of the patient.
There is a separate fee for the cannula. This is a special needle that is longer and more flexible than a regular one. It causes minimal trauma to soft tissues. In addition, the cannula is quite resourceful; with its help you can reach the most inaccessible places.
One or two punctures are made on each side at the base of the cheekbone. Then, through the punctures made, the doctor inserts a needle with the product several times, so that the scars will not be visible.
The procedure took a little time, everything was fine with one cheekbone. When switching to the second, the effect of anesthesia decreased, and I had to endure the pain.
At the end I almost fainted. The doctor brought ammonia. It’s good that my husband took me home. During the first two or three days, I could not smile, because it seemed to me that my facial muscles were not working.
A week later everything returned to normal. There were no bruises or other troubles.
For the procedure, the Korean drug “Dermaren Sub-Q” with maximum density was used. I've done my lips with it twice and liked how long it lasts.
After six months, the filler has not decreased. The jawline has become more defined, the same goes for facial features.
Thanks to contouring my lips and cheekbones, my nose was visually smaller.
I’ll do it again in a couple of months.”

Indications and effectiveness of use
Dermaren fillers are designed for corrective work on aesthetic problems. The drugs are used to eliminate anatomical imperfections and age-related defects. Dermaren gels have a “shape retention” effect. After the natural biodegradation of the material, the tissues do not immediately return to their original position, but remain in a more perfect position.
Dermaren preparations in the skillful hands of a cosmetologist are capable of:
- create volume, forming the desired contours;
- stimulate the normal course of natural processes, maintaining the shape and tone of tissues;
- attract and retain moisture, providing decent skin quality;
- positively influence regeneration and resistance of intracellular structures, blocking the occurrence of pathogenic processes.
Dermaren fillers are indicated for:
- correction, modeling of the shape of lips, cheekbones, nose, chin;
- eliminating wrinkles and folds of varying severity (from a fine “mesh” around the eyes and lips to large nasolabial folds);
- oval tightening, formation of reliefs, contours;
- improving the quality of dry, flabby, aging skin in different areas of the face, neck, décolleté, and body.
Note! Dermaren is used by patients aged 25–30 years. The drugs are most popular among those with aging skin with pronounced signs of changes.
Feedback on Dermaren Fine Plus
“I already had a decent number of wrinkles on my face when I decided to have the first “beauty injections” in my life. I cannot say that I felt no pain at all during the procedure, although an anesthetic was used before the drug was administered. Then, of course, my face became swollen and red. And I didn’t want to explain to everyone that I visited a cosmetologist. But after three days the unpleasant symptoms disappeared. Finally, I could safely go outside.
Now I really see in the mirror that I look younger, my skin is smoother, and the number of wrinkles has decreased. If you want to regain your youth, this is a really effective way.”

Types of fillers
The Dermaren line includes 3 products with a classic composition, but different purposes:
- Fine Plus. A drug with a HA concentration of 20 mg/ml. The product is used to treat delicate areas: periorbital, perioral zones, neck. It is considered popular to eliminate crow's feet, rings of Venus, and fill the nasolacrimal trough.
- Deep Plus. A drug with a HA concentration of 20 mg/ml. The substance is used to correct medium and deep wrinkles, folds (nasolabial, labiomental, glabellar), and lip modeling. Deep plus is ideal for combating age-related changes of the “Slavic” type.
- Sub-Q Plus. Gel with a HA concentration of 24 mg/ml. The filler is used to volumize the cheekbones, chin, and correct the shape of the nose. Removal of large wrinkles and folds is popular. The substance is more often used to work with aging skin (from 35 years).
Among the new products with a conceptual composition, Dermaren presents: lumi and lumi eyes. The ingredients of Lumi are: HA (10 mg/ml) and polynucleotide. The drug improves skin texture, moisturizes, and revitalizes the integument. Volumization and tissue transformation are achieved. The action of Lumi Eye is maximally aimed at regenerating damaged tissues and “awakening” the body’s own powers.
It is recommended to entrust the choice of a suitable product to an experienced cosmetologist. The doctor will assess the severity of the problem, the condition of the skin, and take into account individual characteristics.
Comparison with other methods
Bioreparation is more effective compared to other procedures. It launches the natural process of cell regeneration. The effect lasts up to a year.
The technique of administering the drug is similar to biorevitalization. The difference is in its composition and action.
- During bioreparation, a cocktail of components is used, which triggers natural rejuvenation processes. It is recommended for people over 40 years of age.
- The action of biorevitalizants is aimed at replenishing moisture and smoothing wrinkles. It can be done for 25 years.
The main differences from the injection of fillers or Botox are that they act locally and are used mainly to add volume to the lips or cheekbones.
Mesotherapy differs in indications for use and age limit. Mesococktails are made to nourish and strengthen the skin, reduce pores and scars. They are allowed from 18 years of age.
Carrying out the procedure
Dermaren fillers are intended for intradermal injection. The drugs are completely ready for injection. It is enough to prepare the skin: clean it, disinfect it with an antiseptic.
Attention! Anesthesia is performed in agreement with the patient. This is not necessary for the procedure with Dermaren preparations. The substances contain an anesthetic. This is evidenced by the mark with lidocaine on the packaging.
Injection of the gel is performed using a pre-selected technology. The course of action depends on the problem being solved. The patient is advised to carefully choose a cosmetologist. The quality of the result depends on the doctor’s skills. To ensure their own safety, the patient is recommended to carefully monitor the sterility of the process and monitor the quality of the filler: compliance with the expiration dates.
The cosmetologist manipulates a thin needle or cannula. The amount of gel and depth of injection depend on the filler used. The tools, combined with the correct injection technique, ensure an even distribution of the gel. To help the process, the doctor additionally gently massages the treated area with his fingers. To complete the session, the cosmetologist performs skin antiseptic. The filling procedure takes 20–90 minutes. Duration is related to the scale of processing.

Healing period
The Dermaren gel injection procedure does not involve long-term rehabilitation. After manipulation, significant deviations rarely occur: severe swelling, bruising, pain. In the first 2–3 hours, redness, swelling, and severity of the puncture sites may be observed. Side effects are not inconvenient and rarely last longer than 2-3 days.
To speed up rehabilitation, prevent complications, and obtain the planned result, the doctor will recommend observing restrictions. For the first 3–5 days you cannot:
- apply decorative cosmetics;
- take a steam bath, wash with hot water;
- swim in open reservoirs, swimming pools;
- sunbathe;
- perform skin treatments;
- play sports, overexert yourself physically;
- drink alcohol, smoke.
It is recommended to lead a healthy, measured lifestyle. Restrictions are being lifted gradually. The doctor instructs the patient in detail. On the first day, it is advisable to refrain from washing your face and using usual cosmetics. Next, you can adhere to standard care principles.
The result of injecting Dermaren gels is visible immediately. The manufacturer's fillers are long-acting substances. The result lasts 12–18 months. After this period, if aesthetic problems return, it is permissible to repeat the procedure.
Minimizing the effect
The technology for correcting unsatisfactory results obtained after injection of Dermaren hyaluronic gels is simple. To minimize the effect, it is enough for the doctor to inject substances with hyaluronidase activity under the skin of the unsuccessful area.
Complete elimination of the effect is possible by injecting similar drugs in sufficient quantities. A similar result is achieved when using physiotherapy.
Visiting a bathhouse, sauna, or gym will help minimize the effect on your own.
Precautionary measures
The doctor can protect the patient from complications. The qualified actions of a cosmetologist are important, eliminating contraindications:
- pregnancy, breastfeeding period;
- autoimmune disorders;
- serious somatic diseases;
- severe endocrine, cardiovascular pathologies (diabetes mellitus, heart defects);
- oncology;
- blood diseases;
- acute course of any diseases (chronic, general);
- allergy to the components of Dermaren gel;
- open wounds, dermatological problems in affected areas.
The filler injection procedure is not performed immediately after interventions that change the deep dermal layers.
Important! Before performing filleting, consultation with a cosmetologist is required. The doctor tries to minimize risks. It is recommended to exclude intervention after illness, during menstruation, or if you feel unsatisfactory.
In case of doctor errors or violation of restrictions, patients may experience the development of complications:
- severe swelling, extensive bruising, long-lasting pain;
- granulomas, compactions, “balls”, seromas;
- transillumination of the gel;
- allergic manifestations (itching, rashes, redness);
- necrosis (death) of tissues;
- inflammatory process.
If you suspect negative reactions of the body, it is recommended to immediately consult a doctor. A cosmetologist will help prevent the situation from getting worse.
Pros and cons of the drug
The latest technologies used in the production of Dermaren drugs are an absolute plus of the product. Innovative achievements make it possible to increase the competitiveness of fillers. Dermaren gels have a prolonged effect and rarely cause side effects.
Cosmetologists call the lidocaine content both a plus and a minus of Dermaren preparations. Doctors assess this nuance differently. Some cosmetologists are confused by the paucity of the product line.
When comparing Dermaren fillers with analogues, many notice that the South Korean options have only advantages. Most of these European-made gels have a higher price and often lead to persistent swelling and discomfort.

- Not enough time has passed since skin resurfacing and peeling;

Review of Dermaren Deep Plus
“I have increased the volume of my lips more than once. In the first procedure, Surgiderm gel was used. The second time "Aurelya" was used. And on the third visit - Dermaren Deep Plus. All these sessions were effective. But every time during the procedure I experienced pain, since I have a low pain threshold. After the third gel, I had severe swelling of my lips for several days. But when everything went well, I was very pleased with the result. Several months have passed and the effect is still amazing! I recommend".
