What is facial biostimulator treatment and how does it work?
This treatment involves injecting a biostimulatory substance into different facial areas to promote natural collagen production. The new collagen fibers gradually regenerate volume, improve firmness, and smooth wrinkles in a lasting way. This treatment leads to a fresher and more youthful appearance.
To achieve ideal results, two or three treatment sessions are generally recommended, as each session progressively increases collagen stimulation, naturally improving facial volume and contours.
The impact of collagen loss on facial appearance
With age, collagen production decreases, and the skin begins to lose its elasticity and volume. This results in fine lines, sagging skin, and less defined facial contours, which affects the overall appearance.
Benefits of biostimulators for facial rejuvenation
- Gradual Improvement: Biostimulators encourage collagen production over time, creating subtle and natural-looking improvements.
- Restored Volume: They help restore lost volume in areas such as the cheeks and jawline, giving a fuller and more youthful appearance.
- Smoothed Wrinkles: Lines and wrinkles are minimized as collagen gradually rebuilds the skin's structure.
- Long-Lasting Results: The effects of these collagen stimulators can last two years or more, ensuring that your renewed and youthful appearance is maintained for an extended period. Prior to this period, you can reapply it to maintain the results in a sustained manner.
Our Radiesse®, Sculptra®, and HArmonyCA™ facial biostimulator treatments in Guadalajara can restore a fresh and harmonious appearance. These treatments encourage gradual collagen production, leading to natural-looking improvements providing long-lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Dermal Fillers, Botox, and Bio-stimulator Treatments?
Botox works by relaxing specific facial muscles, which reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions. This treatment is especially effective for dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet, because it temporarily reduces the muscle movement that contributes to these wrinkles.
On the other hand, Hyaluronic Acid Fillers are injectable treatments that restore or add volume to the face. They work by filling wrinkles, enhancing facial contours, and increasing volume in areas such as the cheekbones and lips. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in the skin that retains water and helps keep the skin hydrated and plump.
Bio-stimulators, such as calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), are injectable substances that stimulate the body's natural collagen production. They work gradually over time to improve skin quality and texture, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin. Bio-stimulators are often used to correct deeper wrinkles, skin laxity, and areas of volume loss, providing long-lasting rejuvenation effects beyond what fillers alone can achieve.
What are biostimulators and how do they work?
Biostimulators are injectable compounds that stimulate fibroblast cells, naturally improving collagen production in the body, which is essential for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. The gradual increase in collagen restores lost volume, smoothing wrinkles and progressively rejuvenating the quality of the skin with long-lasting effects.
The compounds used in aesthetic medicine are:
Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA): is a biocompatible substance that stimulates collagen production by encouraging fibroblast activity in the skin. Its gradual action makes it ideal for subtly restoring volume and improving skin texture over several treatment sessions.
Calcium Hydroxylapatite: This compound consists of tiny biocompatible microspheres that promote collagen production over time. It provides a natural-looking lift while supporting the skin's structure, helping to achieve a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
These bio-stimulators offer a comprehensive and non-surgical approach to natural skin rejuvenation.
What areas can be treated with biostimulators?
Biostimulators offer a versatile and innovative approach to skin rejuvenation and can be used for treatments on the face and various areas of the body.
Face
Bio-stimulators help improve overall facial contours and restore lost volume. Their collagen-stimulating properties gradually enhance skin firmness, providing a natural and rejuvenated appearance while smoothing wrinkles and fine lines.
Body
For body contouring, bio-stimulators offer targeted collagen stimulation that helps tighten and tone the skin. Their gradual action can improve skin texture and lift sagging areas, promoting a more youthful and contoured shape. Popular treatment areas include:
- Neck: Improves skin texture and reduces fine lines.
- Décolleté: Increases skin firmness and smoothness.
- Arms: Tightens and firms loose skin, especially on the upper arm.
- Abdomen: Helps with skin laxity, improving overall skin tone.
- Hands: Restores lost volume to provide a rejuvenated and youthful appearance.
- Buttocks: Firms and lifts, helping to smooth uneven skin texture and "hip dips."
- Posterior Thigh: Improves skin appearance and reduces sagging.
- Lower Thigh: Improves skin tone and texture.
- Inner Thigh: Improves skin firmness.
Is a treatment with biostimulators painful?
Treatment with biostimulators is generally well-tolerated and causes minimal discomfort. To maintain your comfort, we use lidocaine as an anesthetic agent, fine needles, and precision syringes. Some patients experience mild discomfort during the procedure, often described as a slight pinching sensation. Since the perception of pain varies from person to person, inform our doctor if you are particularly sensitive to pain. We can use ice, anesthetic cream, or other measures to ensure the experience is as comfortable as possible.

However, younger people may benefit from these treatments if they are already experiencing volume loss or sagging skin.
