Non-collagen biostimulants
Non-collagen biostimulants are injectable products that stimulate the skin's own regenerative processes - especially the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
They contain active substances such as calcium hydroxyapatite and polylactic acid that „prompt“ the body to produce new, more structured collagen and elastin in the treated area. The result comes gradually, but is longer lasting and natural.
When and to whom do we recommend non-collagen fillers?
- Relaxed skin of face and body
- Reduced density and „thinning“ of the skin
- Fine and medium deep wrinkles
- For a tired-looking face
- Skin with post-acne scars
- Skin with wide pores and pigmentation
- Vague cheekbone and mandible contour
- Face and body skin with visible signs of photoaging (sun damage)
Biostimulators are particularly suitable for patients seeking structural improvement, tightening and light volume.
Effect and duration
- There is a change in the very first days, but the best visible result occurs in a few weeks, when the skin has synthesized a sufficient amount of new collagen.
- Over time, the skin becomes denser, firmer and smoother
- The effect can last 12-24 months (depending on the product and individual characteristics).
- Some products require series of procedures - for example 2-3 sessions per month .
Biostimulants don't change your expression or features - they work from the inside out to restore youthful appearance and healthy skin texture.
