Collagen Stimulators
Collagen stimulators are advanced injectable treatments designed to naturally restore lost collagen, a key protein responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. Over time, our body produces less collagen, leading to sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles. Collagen stimulators, administered by Dr. Desmond Chin at Self Aesthetics, work by encouraging the body to gradually rebuild collagen, resulting in a firmer, more youthful appearance over time. This non-surgical option provides long-lasting, natural results.
Key Benefits
Stimulates Natural Collagen Production: Encourages the body to restore its own collagen, improving skin texture, elasticity, and firmness.
Long-Lasting Results: Unlike fillers, which provide immediate volume, collagen stimulators work over time to build lasting, natural results that can last up to 2 years.
Improves Skin Volume & Contours: Enhances areas that have lost volume, such as the cheeks, temples, and jawline.
Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Smooths out deep wrinkles, folds, and other signs of aging.
Subtle & Gradual Improvements: Changes are noticeable over time, providing a more natural and refreshed appearance.
Suitable For People With
Loss of Skin Volume: Ideal for those experiencing hollow cheeks or a thinning face due to aging.
Sagging Skin: Individuals looking to lift and firm sagging skin without surgery.
Deep Wrinkles & Folds: People with deeper lines, such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and chin wrinkles.
Long-Lasting Results: Those seeking a gradual, long-term solution for collagen loss rather than instant volumizing fillers.
Treatment Steps:

Cleansing & Preparation: The treatment area is cleaned, and a topical anesthetic may be applied for comfort.
Injection of Collagen Stimulators: Small amounts of the collagen stimulator are injected into the targeted areas.

How Many Sessions Do You Need?
Collagen stimulators typically require 2 to 3 sessions spaced over several months for optimal results. The effects develop gradually as the body builds new collagen. Maintenance treatments may be needed every 12 to 24 months.
How Long is the Downtime?
There is minimal downtime with collagen stimulators. Patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising, but these typically subside within 1 to 3 days. Normal activities can usually be resumed immediately.
