Collagen stimulators
A collagen stimulator, also known as a collagen-inducing filler or a bio-stimulator, is a type of cosmetic injectable that stimulates the production of collagen in the skin. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that primarily add volume or fill in wrinkles, collagen stimulators work by triggering the body’s natural collagen production process.
What is Skin Collagen?
Skin collagen is a protein that provides structural support to the skin, keeping it firm, smooth, and youthful-looking. However, as we age, the production of collagen decreases, leading to the loss of elasticity and the formation of wrinkles and sagging skin.
How Collagen Stimulator work?
Collagen stimulators typically consist of biocompatible substances that are injected into the deep layers of the skin. The most commonly used collagen stimulator is called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Once injected, the stimulator triggers the body’s natural healing response, prompting the production of new collagen over time.
What are the benefits of collagen stimulators?
The process of collagen stimulation occurs gradually, with the full effects becoming visible over several weeks or months. The newly produced collagen helps to restore volume, improve skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.
Collagen stimulators are commonly used to address signs of aging in various areas of the face, such as the cheeks, temples, jawline, and nasolabial folds. They can also be used to improve the appearance of other parts of the body, including the hands and décolletage.
How long can I see the result and how long does it last?
It’s important to note that collagen stimulators are not instant fillers, and multiple treatment sessions are usually required to achieve optimal results. The number of sessions needed depends on the individual’s specific concerns and the desired outcome. Collagen stimulators are typically considered semi-permanent, as the effects can last for 18 months to 2 years.
