Biostimulators
PLLA Biostimulators
PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) biostimulators are injectable treatments designed to naturally rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen production. Instead of providing instant results like traditional fillers, they work gradually to restore lost volume, improve elasticity, and smooth wrinkles, creating a firmer, more youthful look that can last for years.
How PLLA Biostimulators Work
- Injection – The treatment is placed into the deeper layers of the skin, commonly in areas such as the cheeks or temples where volume loss is most noticeable.
- Collagen Activation – PLLA particles act as stimulators, encouraging the body to produce fresh collagen—the protein responsible for firmness and structure.
- Natural Breakdown – Over time, the PLLA material is safely absorbed, leaving behind newly formed collagen.
- Progressive Results – Improvements develop gradually over several months as collagen builds, enhancing skin thickness, texture, and tightness.
Benefits
- Restores Volume – Naturally replenishes areas of age-related volume loss.
- Improves Skin Quality – Increases firmness, elasticity, and overall skin health.
- Reduces Wrinkles – Softens fine lines and deeper folds.
- Long-Lasting – Results can last up to two years or more.
Important Considerations
- Treatment Plan – A series of sessions (usually 2–3, spaced 4–6 weeks apart) is often required for best results.
- Aftercare – Gentle massage of the treated areas may be recommended for several days to aid product distribution and collagen stimulation.
- Gradual Outcome – Changes occur progressively, making results appear subtle and natural.
- Best Candidates – Suited for individuals with age-related volume loss who want a refreshed appearance without surgery.
