Collagen-stimulating injections have been gaining popularity as a non-surgical solution for skin rejuvenation. As we age, our skin loses collagen, which can lead to wrinkles, thinning skin, and a loss of elasticity. Collagen stimulating injections offer a solution to this problem, by stimulating the production of collagen in the skin.
Today we will explain how they are used and the recommended treatment plan.
How do they work?
Collagen-stimulating injections are made from poly-L-lactic acid, which is a biocompatible and biodegradable substance. This material has been used in aesthetics for years and is safe for use in the body. When injected into the skin, the product temporarily restores volume. After a week, the immediate volume increase subsides, but the product continues to stimulate new collagen growth naturally. Visible results can be seen 4-6 weeks post-treatment, with full results showing at 3-6 months after treatment.
Where can they be used?
Collagen-stimulating injections can be used all over the face, neck, and body to restore fullness and tightness for younger-looking skin. The treatment can be used to improve the appearance of folds and sunken areas, and the most common facial areas treated include the cheeks, nasolabial folds, jowls, and temple area.
For non-invasive butt lifts, collagen stimulators can be used to create a fuller, perkier appearance without surgery. The treatment is quick and takes approximately 45 minutes. We recommend 3-6 treatments, 6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. The visible results may take up to 6 months.
Benefits
A significant benefit of collagen-stimulating injections is that they provide natural-looking results without surgery.
The gradual improvement in skin quality looks subtle and natural, rather than dramatic and obvious.
Many clients prefer this natural-looking result as it helps them look refreshed and rejuvenated without drawing attention to the fact that they have had cosmetic work done.
Treatment plan
The treatment plan will vary depending on your individual needs and the area being treated. Generally, we recommend a series of treatments for the best results. Most clients will require 3-5 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve their desired results.
One of the best things about collagen-stimulating injections is that results can last up to 2 years. We generally recommend a yearly touch-up treatment to maintain the desired result. However, unlike most injectable treatments, you can enjoy your results for an extended period without needing frequent appointments.
The side effects of collagen-stimulating injections are generally minimal, with minimal downtime required. You may experience some bruising, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site, but these side effects typically subside within a few days. You can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.
In conclusion, collagen-stimulating injections are a safe and effective way to restore fullness and tightness for younger-looking skin. The treatment can be used on the face, neck, and body, and the results are long-lasting.
