What are Biostimulators?
Biostimulators are injectables that stimulate your body’s natural collagen production to improve your skin firmness, elasticity, volume, and texture over time. Unlike dermal filler, biostimulators gradually encourage your body to rebuild its own structural support.
The effects of biostimulators are typically visible within 6-12 weeks and results can last from 1 to 5 years depending on the individual.
Biostimulators are ideal for those who want gradual, natural-looking results.

How long will my results last?
The results from biostimulator aesthetic injectables like Sculptra or PRP can last 12 to 24 months or longer, depending on several factors.
Biostimulators are designed to stimulate your body’s own collagen production, so results are natural-looking and long-lasting, but they do require consistency and patience to maintain optimal outcomes.
Does biostimulator treatment hurt?
Biostimulator injectable treatments like Sculptra and PRP are generally well tolerated, but some mild discomfort is normal during and after the procedure.
Most patients find the experience very manageable, and any discomfort is typically short-lived. Let your provider know if you have a low pain tolerance—we can adjust the numbing protocol or use extra precautions to ensure your comfort.
