What to know
What is a biostimulator?+
Instead of adding volume right away like a filler, a biostimulator prompts the skin to build new collagen. Over time this improves firmness, texture and gentle volume in areas such as the face, neck or body.
What happens during treatment?+
After cleaning and numbing, your provider injects the product at the right depth and spreads it across the area. You may be advised to massage the area afterwards. Most people have no downtime.
When will I see results?+
Results are gradual, building over several weeks to months as collagen forms. Many people need a few sessions spaced weeks apart, and the effect can last a year or longer, depending on the product and your skin.
Risks and things to know+
Common effects are swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising. Less often, small lumps or nodules can form, and rare complications can happen, so treatment should be done by a trained clinician. Tell us about your medical history, allergies and any previous fillers.
Questions to bring to your consultation+
Which product do you recommend, and how many sessions do I need? When will I see the result, and how long will it last? How is this different from a filler?
