Understanding Biostimulators: Radiesse® & Sculptra®
More patients are choosing treatments that provide gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation instead of dramatic changes. Biostimulators are injectable treatments designed to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, helping improve skin firmness, texture, and overall appearance over time.
Two popular biostimulator treatments are Radiesse® and Sculptra®
What Are Biostimulators?
As we age, collagen production slows, leading to volume loss, fine lines, and skin laxity. Biostimulators work beneath the skin to encourage new collagen production, helping to gradually restore support and improve skin quality.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is made with poly-L-lactic acid and works over time to rebuild collagen and restore facial structure. It is commonly used to improve volume loss, soften wrinkles, and create subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Radiesse®
Radiesse provides immediate support while also stimulating collagen production. When used as a hyperdilute treatment, it can improve skin texture and firmness in areas such as the face, neck, chest, and hands.
