Collagen production in the body decreases as you get older and/or are exposed to the sun. Wrinkles are one of the first visible signs of this. Biostimulatory products are injected into the deep layer of the skin where collagen naturally exists and is made/stimulated. As the products biodegrade the body will produce new collagen where injections occurred. This stimulation builds up reaching optimal stimulation between 4-6 weeks.A gift that keeps on giving! It is typical to re-stimulate for best outcome at the 4 week mark.
If natural is your love language, biostimulation is your match! Gradually stimulating your own body to produce what age and sun damage took away. Leaving you feeling refreshed, never overdone.
Some treatments may last for up to 25 months after the last treatment session. Unlike other fillers, biostimulatory products provide a gradual improvement of the depressed area over several weeks as the treatment effects occur. During the initial treatment session, a contour defect should be under-corrected, not fully-corrected or over-corrected. It may seem that your treatment worked immediately because of swelling caused by injection and the water used to dilute Sculptra or Radiesse. This usually resolves in several hours to a few days and may cause the original wrinkle to reappear: you may look as you did before your treatment. Visible wrinkle correction results appear slowly. You will be scheduled for a follow up in 4 weeks to identify if a second re-stimulation is required to achieve desired results.
