PB Serum, one of the most popular non-surgical aesthetic applications of recent years, is a mixture containing a fixed amount of hyaluronic acid and varying amounts of lipase, collagenase and lyase enzymes. Within the PB Serum application, the ratios of lipase, collagenase and lyase enzymes can be differentiated and this differentiation is presented as 3 different mixtures with different functions in PB Serum content as Low, Medium and High.
What is PB Serum?
The serum consisting of hyaluronic acid naturally found in the skin and lipase, collagenase and lyase enzymes in varying proportions is called PB Serum and the treatment performed by applying this serum to the skin is called PB Serum application.
Hyaluronic acid in PB serum is responsible for activating the enzymes in the serum. Each enzyme in the content has a different function:
- Collagenase triggers the production of new collagen, breaks down collagen that has lost its function and replaces it with new collagen.
- Lipase dissolves excess fat tissue when injected into areas of excess fat accumulation. For this reason, there is lipase density in the medium PB Serum application applied for regional slimming.
- Lyase reduces fluid retention in tissues, removes edema and increases tissue permeability.

How is PB Serum Application Performed?
After determining the type of PB serum for the needs and expectations of the patient, local anesthetic cream is applied to the application area. Depending on the width of the application area, the procedure may take 15 – 45 minutes.
The serum is injected into the skin using fine needles. Bruising, redness and tenderness may occur at the injection site, which resolves spontaneously after a few days.
The question “Is PB Serum permanent?” can be answered that this application is effective for a very long time and even permanent. At this point, it is known that the lifestyle preferences of the patients after the application are decisive. After PB Serum application for cellulite or regional slimming, problems may recur if the patient does not pay attention to nutrition and exercise regimen.
The number of PB Serum sessions may also vary depending on the targeted change and from person to person. If it is aimed to remove minimal wrinkles with PB Serum, a single session may be sufficient, while for regional thinning, 2-6 sessions may be required within two to three-week periods depending on the condition of the target tissue. PB Serum effect usually occurs within 1 week.
