1. What Exactly Are Biostimulators, and How Do They Work?
Biostimulators are injectable treatments that stimulate your body’s natural collagen production to improve skin elasticity, texture, and firmness. At The Pur Health, we offer biostimulators like:
- Sculptra® Aesthetic: Gradual collagen stimulation for long-lasting volume and firmness.
- Radiesse®: Immediate volume with additional collagen production over time.
These treatments are ideal for reversing signs of aging and enhancing skin quality naturally.
2. What’s the Difference Between Sculptra®, Radiesse®, and Dermal Fillers?
- Sculptra®: Focuses on gradual, long-term collagen production for subtle, natural results lasting up to two years.
- Radiesse®: Provides immediate volume while also stimulating collagen for enhanced skin structure.
- Traditional Fillers (e.g., Restylane®): Add immediate volume and hydration with hyaluronic acid but don’t stimulate collagen.
Our providers can help you choose the right treatment based on your goals.
3. How Long Do Biostimulator Results Last?
The duration of results varies depending on the product:
- Sculptra®: Results appear gradually and last up to 2 years.
- Radiesse®: Immediate effects with collagen-boosting benefits lasting up to 18 months.
At The Pur Health, we customize your treatment plan to maximize results.
4. Are Biostimulators Safe, and What Are the Side Effects?
Biostimulators are FDA-approved and safe when administered by trained professionals. Common side effects include mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site, which typically resolve within a few days. Rare complications, such as nodules, are minimized with proper injection techniques.
At The Pur Health, our experienced providers use advanced techniques to ensure your safety and satisfaction.
5. Can Biostimulators Be Combined with Other Treatments?
Yes! Combining biostimulators with other aesthetic treatments can enhance results. At The Pur Health, we offer:
- RF Microneedling: Tightens skin and improves texture.
- HydraFacial: Hydrates and rejuvenates skin for a radiant glow.
- Chemical Peels: Brightens skin and addresses pigmentation concerns.
