Which Collagen Stimulator is right for me?

Blog

Injectable collagen stimulators are specialised products designed to enhance the skin’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which add volume and fill in wrinkles, collagen stimulators work by promoting the body’s own collagen synthesis over time. This leads to gradual and more natural-looking improvements in skin texture and firmness. Below are the more popular types of Collagen Stimulators at The Lime Tree Clinic, so what’s the difference between them two?

Microsphere stimulators

This type is made of tiny biodegradable calcium-based microspheres which are suspended in a natural, water-based gel. These calcium-based microspheres are similar to minerals that are found naturally in your body. Over time, your body naturally breaks down these tiny microspheres and the gel, leaving behind only your own natural collagen. This is how it works

  • Immediate Volume: When injected, these microspheres bathed in a special cohesive gel fills in areas that have lost volume, smoothing out wrinkles and enhancing facial contours.
  • Stimulating Collagen: Over time, the body recognises these microspheres and starts to produce natural collagen around them. This gradual process helps the skin become firmer and more elastic.
  • Natural Absorption: Eventually, the body absorbs the microspheres, leaving behind increased collagen for lasting results.

Polynucleotide Injectable

The anti-aging injectable known as Rejuran focuses on skin repair and rejuvenation. Rejuran’s Polynucleotide (DNA proteins) is specifically formulated from salmon to target the stimulation of collagen within the superficial or upper layers of the skin. This treatment aims to promote natural collagen production, which decreases with ageing, to address visible signs of ageing. Here’s the process

  • Biochemical Cellular Repair: Once injected, the polynucleotides help repair damaged skin cells and encourage cell turnover.
  • Boosting Collagen: As the skin repairs itself, collagen production increases, leading to firmer skin over time.
  • Improving Hydration: This treatment also enhances hydration, making the skin appear plumper and healthier

With their ability to promote collagen production and provide long-lasting, natural-looking results, these treatments can help you achieve a more youthful, radiant complexion. As with any cosmetic procedure, it’s essential to book in for a complimentary consultation with one of our experienced cosmetic nurses to discuss your options and tailor a suitable treatment plan for you.
