You may already use CO2Lift or Epicutis after microneedling, lasers and peels. Here is how ReVia Skin is different, in plain English, so you can decide if it belongs in your treatment room.
None of these is "the best." They are built on different ideas. The right pick depends on what your client needs, and how much time you have in the chair.
Two ready-to-use hydrogel masks. RECOVER mixes two well-known peptides with ingredients that hydrate. INFUSE skips the peptides and focuses on moisture and glow. No mixing. About 20 to 30 minutes.
A two-part gel that makes CO2 when you mix it. This is called topical carboxytherapy. About 45 minutes on the face. It has published clinical studies on the finished product.
A biocellulose (coconut fiber) sheet mask built around TSC, one patented ingredient the brand calls a “lipid-peptide,” plus hyaluronic acid. About 10 to 20 minutes. Sold alone or in a recovery kit.

A peptide is a short chain of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. Here is what each brand actually uses.
GHK-Cu is a copper peptide (3 amino acids) with a long history in skincare. Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (6 amino acids) is a well-known peptide aimed at expression lines. Sodium DNA and several forms of hyaluronic acid add hydration.
INFUSE has no named peptide. It uses Sodium DNA, niacinamide, collagen, hyaluronic acid and amino acids to leave skin moist and glowing. Pair it with a P5 serum if you want peptides in the routine.
TSC is one amino acid (cysteine) with a fat-like tail attached. Epicutis calls it a lipid-peptide and says it acts like the skin’s own natural oils to support the barrier. The whole mask is built around this one ingredient.
Epicutis bets on one special ingredient that acts like the skin’s own oils. ReVia RECOVER uses a mix of two well-known peptides plus ingredients that hydrate. INFUSE focuses on moisture and glow. Different approaches, not proof that one works better.
ReVia is not trying to be CO2Lift or Epicutis. It is built to be easy for your team, and easy for clients to take home.
RECOVER for calming after needles, lasers and peels. INFUSE for glow after facials. Your team matches the mask to the service, not one mask to everything.
Open the pack and put it on. Any trained team member can do it the same way every time.
20 to 30 minutes fits the time clients already spend in the chair. You don't have to stretch the booking.
A box of 4 lists at $99, or about $25 a mask. That is an easy yes at checkout, and it brings clients back to you to buy more.
Sereno provider pricing sits well under the $99 list price, so every take-home box earns, on top of the in-office mask you add to the service. Get access to see your exact cost.
The P5 Advanced and P5 Reserve serums carry the same peptide story into the client's daily routine.
