Biostimulant Skin Treatments

Return to the skin you were born with

Two of the main contributors to the appearance of aged skin are the loss of collagen, which provides support and thickness to the skin, and elastin, which allows the skin to snap back when stretched. Biostimulant skin treatments turn the clock around by increasing both the skin’s production of healthy collagen and elastin, resulting in increased firmness and more supple skin. The results of biostimulating treatments can last at least two years.

As their name suggests, biostimulating products stimulate the production of new, younger skin. Most biostimulatory products can be used to provide overall volume, but when hyper-diluted, they produce a subclinical inflammatory reaction to produce skin thickening over time. Products like Sculptra, Radiesse, and smooth absorbable threads produce a subclinical inflammatory reaction to produce skin thickening while Renuva and Nanofat produce growth factors to achieve the same result.

Biostimulatory treatments include the hyperdiluted injectable products Sculptra and Radiesse, certain lasers like the Profractional, and absorbable threads.
