Larysa Lonchar

Bioregulatory cosmetologist, teacher at the Biotonika school

Larysa Lonchar is a cosmetologist and an advocate of biological aesthetic medicine, a teacher at the Biotonika school of cosmetology and the author of the Biotonika rejuvenation method. She has more than 20 years of experience in biocosmetology. Clients and students also know her as Lora Lonchar.

Education

Larysa studied homotoxicology at the Ukrainian Academy of Biological Medicine and at the Italian company GUNA. In her words, this training did not just broaden her knowledge and give her new experience — it shaped a different view of familiar things, including classical medicine, which is based on suppressing the symptom. Since then, the new philosophy in cosmetology has become her philosophy of life, and she has taken the position of an advocate of biological aesthetic medicine.

Approach

  • A comprehensive, holistic approach. Any "external" problem — skin ageing, pigmentation disorders, cellulite — first of all points to a disruption in the work of the internal organs and an imbalance of the whole body.
  • Beauty as a result of health. "I am not a make-up artist, I am a cosmetologist": besides beauty and youth, Larysa works on strengthening health, on which the condition of the skin directly depends. Her principle is to rejuvenate wisely, so that beauty is the result of better health.
  • Bioregulatory medicine. The goal is to bring the body to its optimal mode of work with the help of the emotional balance technique and bioregulatory medicines. Among her favourites are Heel products.
  • Teaching the client. Larysa teaches clients to reduce the toxic load on the body and to rationalise their diet, physical activity and biorhythms.
  • Individual plans. In cosmetology, as in medicine, there are no universal procedures: for every skin type and state of the body, a separate programme is drawn up using the author's Biotonika method.

Consultation

At the first meeting, Larysa gathers as much information as possible: about the client's health and the specifics of their body, their habits and pace of life, the nature of their work, previous procedures and how the skin reacted to them, home care, and what the client expects from the meeting.

The author's method

Biopuncture and the emotional balance technique are parts of Larysa's own rejuvenation method. She teaches her clients the "secret of the rejuvenating apples" — so that they become younger, healthier and more beautiful: "A healthy body has beautiful skin." She teaches simply and clearly, including those who now live abroad.

Teaching

Together with her colleague Vitaliia Shevchenko, Larysa trains cosmetologists at the Biotonika school; when the war separated the teachers, the training moved online.
