Collagen Stimulators
Biostimulants, also known as collagen stimulators, regenerative injectables, and skin boosters, work by stimulating the body's natural collagen and elastin production to restore volume, improve skin texture, and enhance elasticity over time. Unlike traditional fillers, these treatments offer long-term skin rejuvenation rather than immediate volume.
Popular options include Sculptra® (PLLA) for gradual volume restoration, Skinvive™ for deep hydration and glow, Polynucleotides (Salmon DNA) for cellular repair, Derma PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) for skin renewal, and Exosomes for faster healing and collagen stimulation. These treatments are ideal for the face, neck, hands, and body, improving firmness, hydration, and overall skin quality with gradual, natural-looking results.

Like any cosmetic treatment, fillers can cause some temporary side effects. Common reactions include swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. Some people may also experience mild lumps or bumps, which usually resolve on their own within a few days to weeks. These side effects are generally mild and subside quickly. While serious side effects are rare, it’s important to have the procedure done by a skilled injector to minimize risks.
However, while serious side effects are rare, it's important to be aware of any unusual symptoms, such as severe pain, significant bruising, skin discoloration, or difficulty breathing. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your provider immediately.
