Lyophilized medicines are becoming increasingly common in aesthetic medicine. However, preserving the efficacy of these sensitive products (for example, HRLV/SRLV) depends heavily on proper storage conditions.

What Is Lyophilization?

Lyophilization (freeze-drying) is a process that converts an active ingredient into a stable powder form without degrading it. While this extends shelf life, it can also make the product more sensitive to environmental factors.

Ideal Storage Conditions

• Temperature: Many lyophilized products can be stored at room temperature before reconstitution, but for long-term protection—and especially after reconstitution—+2°C to +8°C (refrigerated) is typically ideal. Avoid freezing unless the manufacturer explicitly allows it.
• Humidity: Moisture is one of the biggest threats to lyophilized products. Ensure airtight packaging and keep the storage environment dry.
• Light: To prevent degradation of light-sensitive compounds, store products in their original packaging or in a dark environment.
