Collagen Biostimulation (Poly-L-Lactic Acid)

A collagen-stimulating treatment using a poly-L-lactic acid tissue stimulator that works gradually rather than adding immediate volume. Injected into the skin, it is associated with a progressive improvement in firmness and quality as the skin's own collagen is encouraged over the following weeks and months. It suits patients who want a natural, build-up effect for laxity and loss of skin quality, and works best as a course.

Collagen biostimulation uses an injectable poly-L-lactic acid stimulator — a biocompatible material that prompts the skin to gradually produce more of its own collagen — rather than filling a line directly. Instead of an instant change, the result develops over weeks to months as new collagen forms, which is associated with a progressive improvement in firmness, thickness and overall skin quality, giving a subtle and natural-looking effect. At Klinika dr Grażyny Bem the product is injected across the area to be treated, typically the face, after the skin has been prepared and numbed for comfort. A treatment takes around thirty to forty-five minutes; mild swelling, redness or small bruises can occur for a day or two, and the doctor may advise gently massaging the area afterwards. Because the effect is cumulative, a course of treatments spaced several weeks apart usually gives the best result, with improvement continuing after the final session and longevity that tends to exceed that of standard hyaluronic acid fillers. Collagen biostimulation is well suited to adults noticing general skin laxity, thinning or loss of quality rather than a single fold, and can form part of a wider plan alongside the clinic's injectable and regenerative treatments. Suitability and any contraindications are reviewed at a medical consultation before starting.
