Biostimulators (Sculptra/Radiesse)
Enjoy a Big Boost in Collagen and a More Youthful Glow with Biostimulators.
One of the biggest factors in the appearance of aging skin is collagen loss. Collagen is that magical little fibrous protein that provides structure and firmness to the skin abundantly in our youth. Unfortunately, it steadily diminishes with age, eventually leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. Biostimulators work to effectively crank your body’s own collagen production into high gear and help restore a more youthful appearance. At Beauti Pharm, we proudly utilize the trusted biostimulators Sculptra® and Radiesse® to produce beautiful results time after time.
How do biostimulators work?
Biostimulators are a type of filler injected into the deeper dermis layer of the skin. Rather than simply “filling in” areas where wrinkles and lost volume are present, biostimulators actually create a kind of scaffolding for natural collagen and elastin production over the course of several weeks and months. That replenished collagen results in diminished fine lines and wrinkles and helps to generate a firmer, more youthful appearance that typically lasts longer than traditional hyaluronic acid fillers.
Am I a candidate for biostimulator injections?
Biostimulators can be a great option for healthy adults who are concerned with wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of facial fullness. If you plan on following a good skin care regimen consistently at home to maintain your results, then you may be an ideal candidate. Reach out to us today to find out more.
What are the different types of biostimulators available at Beauti Pharm?
Sculptra and Radiesse are the stars of the biostimulator show at Beauti Pharm. Both of these trusted brands can provide amazing benefits by boosting major collagen production. Here’s a snapshot of what these biostimulators are all about:
- Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable filler that consists of a biocompatible, synthetic substance called poly-L-lactic acid, or PLLA. PLLA helps produce multiple collagen strands in the body over time to create a natural-looking rejuvenated result that can last up to two years in many cases.
- Radiesse is a filler that contains calcium hydroxylapatite, or CaHA. CaHA is a mineral-like compound found naturally in your bones. Once injected, the CaHA gel particles integrate into your skin to promote collagen and elastin production over the course of a few months with results that can last up to a year and a half.
Which biostimulator is right for me?
Both of these amazing biostimulators can produce remarkable results, but one may prove slightly more beneficial than the other depending on your beauty goals and your individual skin. We will discuss all the details at your consultation and help you determine which one is best for you.
Is any recovery time needed after biostimulator injections?
Biostimulator injections are a minimally invasive and require little to no downtime following treatment. The most common side effects are mild bruising and swelling at and around the injection sites. These generally resolve on their own rather quickly. We’ll discuss with you exactly what you can expect at your consultation.
What results can I expect after my biostimulator treatment?
The effects of biostimulator injections are gradual, slowly but surely becoming more noticeable over the course of the next few weeks and months following treatment. It’s that gradual nature of increased collagen and elastin that leads to truly natural-looking results that’ll have people noticing a difference but unable to pinpoint that you’ve had anything done. In most cases, the results build and become the most noticeable in a few months. Most patients can expect to enjoy the skin-rejuvenating results for one to two years, depending on factors such as their individual skin structure, lifestyle, and at-home skin care routine.
