Cytocare 516 is Laboratoire Revitacare’s mid-strength mesotherapy solution: 16 mg of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid plus the CT50 complex of 50 nutrients in each 5 mL vial, ten per box. A CE-marked Class III device made in France, it is positioned for moderate skin types — maintaining hydration and radiance and softening fine lines — on the face, neck and décolleté, and is the maintenance counterpart to Cytocare 532. Professional use only.
What is Cytocare 516?
Cytocare 516 is the mid-strength member of Laboratoire Revitacare’s Cytocare mesotherapy range. Each 5 mL vial contains 16 mg of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid with the CT50 Rejuvenating Complex of 50 nutrients — amino acids, B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, manganese and cellular energy sources. Made in France, CE-marked Class III, and supplied ten vials to a box. The name encodes the format: 5 mL, 16 mg.
When do clinics choose 516 over 532?
The manufacturer positions 516 for “moderate” skin — maintaining hydration and radiance and softening fine lines — and 532 for “advanced” skin where more HA is wanted to fill fine lines and restore lost radiance. In practice 516 is the maintenance and prevention product, 532 the corrective one. Both share the same CT50 complex, vial size and box count.
