Benefits


Collagen stimulating injections are a minimally invasive injectable treatment using a medical-grade substance compatible with your body’s tissues. Also known as bio-stimulators, they can be injected into the skin to plump and fill the tissues, helping to eliminate lines and wrinkles.

How it works

As we age, we produce less collagen, causing the skin to sag and wrinkle. By stimulating our body’s natural collagen, we give our skin a ‘wake-up’, helping it to restore volume, improve skin texture and smooth wrinkles.Collagen is a natural protein found throughout the body in connective tissues in the skin. The procedure involves injecting a powdered medication mixed with local anaesthetic which helps stimulate the body’s natural collagen and elastin production

Treatment areas

Most areas of the face and body can be treated with collagen stimulating injections. Some areas respond better than others; this is where the expertise of the doctor and trained professionals at Samara Aesthetics can determine the best treatment option for the patient.

Common areas treated are:

  • Neck & decolletage
  • Back of hands
  • Mid-face

Treatment process

First, the area is cleansed with antiseptic, then numbed with anaesthetic. The product is injected using a cannula or fine needle. After your collagen bio-stimulator treatment, the patient must massage the area for 4 to 5 days. For best results, the treatment is repeated after 2 to 3 months.

Results & treatment longevity

Once both treatments are completed, the results generally tend to last between 2-3 years. The process can take several weeks or even months to see the effect and is not immediate.

Complications

There is a possibility of nodule formation, particularly if the area is not massaged regularly after treatment.

It all starts with a consultation
with a medically trained doctor...

At Samara Aesthetics, every client starts with a one-on-one consultation with Dr Sam Avarinth, a medically trained cosmetic doctor. He’ll take the time to assess you, listen to questions, and share his knowledge before suggesting suitable, personalised treatment options. There’s no one-size-fits-all, no pushy sales talk — just caring, considered, evidence-based advice.

Collagen stimulator injections last longer than other cosmetic injectables. They stimulate the body’s natural regenerative processes, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin—keeping proteins that help maintain the skin structure, elasticities and firmness.

Collagen stimulators can benefit various areas of the face and the body, including the cheeks, jawline, chin, neck, decolletage and hands. They can also be used to treat acne scars.

Ideal candidates for bio stimulator treatments include those who are concerned about visible signs of ageing (finalised, wrinkles, crappy skin, loss of facial volume) and those who are interested in improving skin quality.

Immediately after your treatment, you may experience some generalised tenderness and discomfort. This can be alleviated by a cool compress and paracetamol. You can reduce the chance of bruising by avoiding blood-thinning medications and alcohol. Your practitioner will discuss your after-care protocol at length during your initial consultation.

Avoid heat-inducing activities, sun exposure and wearing make-up for 24 hours after treatment.
