Collagen biostimulators have a rejuvenating effect that is much appreciated in aesthetic medicine. One of the main changes caused by ageing is the loss of skin elasticity, which is closely related to the body’s decreased production of collagen. This process is gradual and becomes evident with the appearance of wrinkles, expression lines, loss of volume and sagging in the face, knees or belly.
Collagen biostimulators are increasingly sought after by those who want to delay the signs of ageing and keep their skin looking younger and healthier. In this article, we’ll give you some reasons why this treatment is a safe investment for restoring firmness, texture and support to the skin.
What are collagen biostimulators?
Biostimulators are made up of a substance that stimulates the body’s production of collagen. When injected into the skin, it triggers a beneficial inflammatory reaction in the cells responsible for collagen production. Once the fibroblasts are activated, new fibers are produced and the skin gains more support and a rejuvenated appearance. This rejuvenating effect improves sagging, texture and radiance in a natural and progressive way.
Depending on the specific needs of each skin and body region to be treated, your Aesthetic Medicine specialist may choose to apply 3 types of biostimulators: Radiesse, Ellancé and Sculptra. While the first two give the skin a volumizing effect, the last only treats the appearance, without volumizing.
Why use collagen biostimulators?
1. balancing collagen levels in the skin
Over time, the body reduces its collagen production. This change usually occurs from the age of 30 and leads to the appearance of:
- Wrinkles;
- Expression lines;
- Sagging;
- Loss of volume;
- Tired appearance.
Collagen biostimulators act directly at the root of the problem. They stimulate the production of this substance and combat the signs of ageing, giving the skin a more youthful, radiant and healthy appearance.
2. Increase skin resistance
The quantity and quality of collagen present in the body decreases with age and exposure to other enemies of the skin such as:
- Excessive exposure to the sun;
- Pollution;
- Stress;
- Smoking.
Treatment with collagen biostimulators not only increases the body’s production of this substance, but also prolongs its quality.
3. Preventive and non-invasive care
It always pays to be preventative rather than reactive. It’s exactly the same with skin care. By preventing the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines, you postpone the need for more expensive invasive treatments. If you use collagen biostimulators before the signs of ageing become prominent, it will take less effort to see and maintain the results.
4. Delay the signs of ageing
We already know that collagen is the protein involved in supporting and firming the skin. As we’ve mentioned, collagen biostimulators increase the body’s production of this substance. Consequently, they help to restore the skin’s firmness and elasticity. Thus, one of their main benefits is the treatment and prevention of signs of ageing, such as wrinkles expression lines and sagging. By including collagen biostimulators in your skincare routine, you can delay the appearance of these problems and enjoy a more youthful appearance for longer.
5. Aging harmoniously
Aging is natural and inevitable. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t slow down this process and age on your own terms. Collagen biostimulators offer a safe and effective way to delay the effects of time and prolong the skin’s youthful, healthy appearance. Adopting a care protocol created by a team of specialists in Aesthetic Medicine will respect your balance and well-being.
