WHAT IS COLLAGEN STIMULATION?

From our mid-20s, collagen production naturally slows, at about 1% per year.

At Bygolden, our collagen stimulation treatments work by activating your skin’s fibroblasts to rebuild and strengthen its internal support network, over time. 

We curate a multi-modality approach, our treatments include  precision injectables that gradually restore volume and firmness, to advanced technologies like Clearlift laser, micro needling and various skin boosters  that refine texture, improve density, and enhance overall skin quality. Results evolve subtly over time, leaving skin lifted, resilient, and  refreshed. It's important to note collagen stimulation can be done in various ways. We work with you to determine what it right

From a cosmetic medicine perspective and TGA regulations, we can't use terms like, 'Sculptra' to advertise. You will find this on our website as, "collagen stimulating injections.'  We also treat with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF).

COLLAGEN STIMULATING INJECTIONS

  • Consultation to assess skin concerns and determine suitability

  • Cleansing and numbing of the treatment area for comfort

  • Small amounts of product are strategically placed under the skin using a fine needle or cannula. A process like planting new seeds, to help collagen grow.

  • The session is generally completed within 60 minutes, depending on the area

  • A post-treatment massage routine is a must at home massage helps evenly distribute the product and optimise results.

  • No “overnight” change, the skin’s renewal process is gradual, typically requiring a series of sessions for best results.

  • Cost Single Vial $900, 2 Vials $1700

How the treatment is performed

  • WHAT IT IS

    COLLAGEN STIMULATION

    It is an injectable treatment containing a biocompatible, biodegradable compound that has been used in medical settings for decades. It is placed beneath the skin to support its internal structure and stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production process over time.

  • HOW DOES IT WORK

    COLLAGEN STIMULATION

    Once placed, the injectable acts as a scaffold within the skin. This gently activates fibroblasts, which are the skin cells responsible for collagen production, rebuilding and strengthening the skin’s support network.

  • ARE RESULTS IMMEDIATE?

    COLLAGEN STIMULATION

    This type of injectable does not provide an immediate change. Instead, it works gradually, with the skin’s texture, firmness, and support structure improving as new collagen is produced. The results are profound, but gradual.

    A ideal treatment for those wanting significant change but wanting it to be subtle over time.

  • HOW MANY SESSIONS?

    The number of sessions varies depending on your individual treatment goals. Most clients have a series of appointments spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results.

PLATELET RICH PLASMA & PLATELET RICH FIBRIN

A small sample of your own blood is collected, similar to a standard blood test.

  1. The blood is placed in a specialised centrifuge to separate its components.

  2. The plasma portion, which contains a high concentration of platelets, is carefully drawn up.

  3. This plasma is then introduced to the treatment area using fine needles or a cannula, depending on the procedure.

  4. Cost $570 per treatment or 3 treatments $1500

    Like PRP, PRF begins with a small blood sample taken from the client.

    The blood is spun in a centrifuge at a lower speed, which preserves more cells and natural fibrin matrix.

    The result is a thicker, gel-like concentrate rich in platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin.

    This concentrate is placed into the treatment area using precision techniques suited to the skin or structure being addressed, this treatment is great for under eyes or a smaller area due to a smaller more concentrated yield of product.

    How collagen stimulators work

    Collagen stimulators are a powerful, bio-stimulatory treatment designed to kick-start your skin’s natural collagen production. This helps smooth facial wrinkles and enhances the overall health and quality of your skin.

    These treatments are particularly effective for addressing deep wrinkles, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and skin laxity in the lower face. Best of all, the results can last for over two years, with many clients enjoying even longer-lasting improvements. It’s a long-term solution to rejuvenating your skin and achieving a more refreshed appearance.

What are Collagen Stimulating Injections?

Collagen stimulating injections are a cosmetic treatment designed to naturally boost your body’s collagen production. Collagen injections contain bio-stimulatory substances like poly-L-lactic acids, which gradually improve skin texture, volume, and firmness. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate but temporary results, collagen stimulators work over time, offering long-lasting effects. We often refer to Collagen stimulators are a ‘longer game’ treatment, where results will continue to develop 6+ months post treatment.
