Utilizing advanced injectables like Radiesse, Sculptra, and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), these treatments are designed to restore volume, improve skin texture, and stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. Achieve long-lasting, natural-looking results and revitalize your skin’s youthful glow.
What Are Collagen Biostimulators? What Are Radiesse, Sculptra, and PRF?
Collagen Biostimulators are cutting-edge treatments that work by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers, which provide immediate volume by adding a gel-like substance, biostimulators encourage your skin to rebuild itself from within, resulting in long-lasting and natural-looking rejuvenation.
Radiesse
Immediate Lift with Long-Lasting Results
Radiesse is a unique dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier. Known for its dual-action benefits, Radiesse provides immediate volume restoration and long-term collagen stimulation, making it a favorite for both contouring and rejuvenation.
How Radiesse Works
When injected, the gel provides an instant lift by adding volume to areas that have lost structure due to aging. Over time, the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres stimulate the production of natural collagen, gradually improving skin elasticity and firmness even after the gel is absorbed by the body.
Ideal Uses for Radiesse
- Facial Contouring: Radiesse is commonly used to define the jawline, enhance cheekbones, and soften nasolabial folds (smile lines).
- Neck Rejuvenation: This filler can firm and tighten skin on the neck, addressing early signs of laxity.
- Hand Rejuvenation: Radiesse is FDA-approved to improve the appearance of aging hands by replenishing lost volume and smoothing wrinkles.
Results and Longevity
Radiesse provides instant results, with ongoing improvement as collagen production increases. Results can last 12 to 18 months, depending on the treatment area and individual response.
Sculptra
Gradual, Natural Collagen Restoration
Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) injectable that focuses on stimulating collagen production rather than filling areas with an artificial substance. Its gradual and subtle approach makes it ideal for individuals looking for natural, long-term rejuvenation.
How Sculptra Works
Ideal Uses for Sculptra
- Full-Face Rejuvenation: Smooths wrinkles and restores volume in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline.
- Skin Laxity: Improves sagging skin on the face, neck, and chest.
- Body Treatments: Sculptra can also address cellulite and contour areas like the buttocks for a smoother, firmer appearance.
Results and Longevity
Sculptra requires 2-3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results. Improvements appear gradually over 6-12 weeks as collagen builds, and the effects can last 2-3 years, making it one of the longest-lasting biostimulators available.
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) – Natural Healing and Rejuvenation
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a next-generation, all-natural treatment that uses your body’s own regenerative properties to improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity. PRF is derived from your blood, making it a safe, natural, and highly effective option for rejuvenation.
How PRF Works
Ideal Uses for PRF
- Under-Eye Rejuvenation: PRF is often used to treat dark circles, hollows, and fine lines in the delicate under-eye area.
- Skin Texture and Tone: Improves overall skin quality, reducing wrinkles, fine lines, and pigmentation.
- Hair Restoration: PRF can be injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles, promote growth, and improve hair density in thinning areas.
