Biostimulators

Collagen Induction Therapy with Sculptra or Radiesse

  • Radiesse

    Radiesse is considered a biostimulatory product-think collagen induction! Radiesse contains Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA), which is a well-established collagen stimulator. Radiesse targets fibroblast cells in the body to produce more collagen and elastin. This leads to reduced wrinkles and folds, and improved skin quality, firmness, and elasticity.

    Radiesse can be injected in diluted or undiluted forms. In diluted form, Radiesse provides skin rejuvenation to help with skin quality, wrinkles and folds, and gradual revolumizaiton. This product looks beautiful in the lower face, neck, décolletage (chest), and hands!

    In undiluted form, Radiesse can be injected in the cheeks and jawline. You get an immediate volumizing correction, but you also get the benefits of gradual biostimulation. The result is a long-lasting aesthetic improvement for ≥18 months.

  • Sculptra

    Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that subtly and gradually helps restore facial volume. When injected into the tissue, Sculptra helps replace lost collagen. Loss of collagen is one of the underlying causes of facial aging and Sculptra directly addresses this problem.

    Scultpra is made up of a biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). PLLA recruits fibroblasts which in turn help to produce more collagen. It is a unique treatment that helps to revitalize collagen production to restore your skin’s structure and volume.

    Sculptra can be placed in many areas including cheeks, lower face, chin, and temples. With results lasting up to 25 months after the last treatment, Sculptra can help restore lost facial volume, improve the look of lines and wrinkles, and rejuvenate your overall appearance.
