There are a few little known products by Reviva Labs that kind of fly under the radar.
As someone who is always on the hunt for a skincare product that will improve the texture and look of my skin, I got curious about these Ampules by Reviva Labs. There are three types of Ampules, there are Collagen, Elastin and Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Ampules.

They are ampules that would be added to a luxury skincare treatment done by a professional. I started on (Jan-25th 2012 used it till Feb 1st 2012) Used them for a week as it is directed on the packaging. There is nothing wrong with that, who doesn’t love a spa treatment? But what if you wanted the same thing only doing it yourself at home?

General Background for Ampules: Reviva’s Lyophilized Ampules are highly concentrated and have a higher potency than day or night creams. Lyophilized means that the ingredient is freeze-dried to retain its potency and is in concentrate form when blended into the liquid contents of a glass ampule (with the ingredients necessary for absorption). Then the ampule is hermetically sealed to retain its force. Thus ampules provide the highest potency for their individual type of product. And because skin can build resistance to this level of potency after extended usage of the same type of ampule, they are recommended for just one week per month. They act as a catalyst to promote deeper penetration and absorption of the ingredients. Ampules maintain freshness for about one week if refrigerated. For the specific ampule (Collagen, for example), we recommend one week per month usage. The Elastin Ampule, one week per month, which could be the subsequent month. Some individuals get three applications from a single ampule; others use more and get just two days (probably when they apply on the throat as well as the face). After one use, it would be best to refrigerate for additional uses but, frankly, most salons don’t do that and get satisfactory results.
In fact I asked how they are used at salon/spas. And this is the answer I got:
They don’t use the spa’s ampules. If the salon/spa does retail the ampules they sell a separate box. But most use it as part of professional treatment because it helps show better immediate results—particularly when they use galvanic current over it for deeper penetration.
The first one I tested out was Collagen Ampules. We know as we get older we start losing collagen in our face making fine lines appear. It is one of those facts of life issues we all have to deal with.
So out of the three it was the one I picked first. It recommends that you do use the Light Skin Peel before using it the first time.
I think it needs better directions for sure. Don’t drop them being they are glass they break very easy, I know I dropped my first one.

I would like to know why you use them for only a week. Why a week? How is that going to do any long lasting results? (there is) What about the rest in the box? So as you can see I had lots of questions!!

Before Photo as you can see I have a zit on that cheek.
Before I applied it the first time I used Glycolic Acid Cleanser, Light Skin Peel (best product ever!)
, Glycolic Acid Toner, Skin Energizing Gel and then the ampule. (Here is my review for Glycolic Acid Products) Now I have used oil based serums before and they have left a oily feeling to my skin. Not this one! It feels like the Stem Cell Booster Serum,(my review) goes on creamy/oil and dries leaving your face feeling a bit tight. Which was a easy fix, I used a Peptides & More Anti Wrinkle Cream and the InterCell Night Gel w/Hyaluronic Acid.

After photo, you can see its the same cheek.. And here is another photo

Its there the different and you can see it, but even better you can feel it!
I noticed that my skin remain looking plump and by it doing that, my fine lines around my eyes are less noticeable. Now I ask about how to use them correctly, why and got all questions answered Mr. Strassler himself.
It’s a little known skincare add on to your nightly skincare nightly routine that really does help your anti-aging skincare products. It’s luxury in a ampule!
I have all three that they offer, it’s recommend that you change up your skincare products because your skin can get used to what you are using and it makes less benefits.
Would I use the ampules again? You bet I would! I only used three in one week. You get 10.. That is just over 4 weeks worth for only $32.00!
(Now I will admit to do this I tested the ampules using only other Reviva Labs products that I happen to have one hand.) You don’t have to do that, I just happen to be in between skincare product reviewing..
