Collagen-Stimulating Injectables (Polycaprolactone)
Overview
Polycaprolactone (PCL) collagen biostimulator is an advanced injectable treatment designed to restore age-related facial volume loss while stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.
As we age, gradual loss of facial fat, collagen and structural support contributes to hollowing of the temples, flattening of the cheeks and loss of youthful facial contours.
This treatment replaces lost facial volume while encouraging progressive collagen formation, allowing treated areas to maintain support even as the product is gradually broken down by the body.
This treatment is particularly suited to complement other lifting treatments, for rebuilding areas of facial volume loss and restoring natural facial contours.
The gradual collagen stimulation helps maintain a soft, natural appearance while providing long-term skin rejuvenation.
Common Concerns Addressed
- Hollow temples
- Flattened cheeks
- Facial volume loss
- Loss of youthful facial contours
- Gaunt appearance
- Mid-face deflation
- Age-related collagen loss
How It Works
- Polycaprolactone microspheres are placed into areas of volume deficiency
- Immediate structural volume is restored by the CMC gel carrier
- Fibroblasts are stimulated to produce new collagen
- As collagen develops, facial volume and contours continue to improve naturally over time
Treatment Process
Consultation
Comprehensive facial assessment and treatment planning
Duration
Typically 30–45 minutes
Comfort
Topical anaesthesia or local anaesthesia may be used
Downtime
Mild swelling or bruising may occur temporarily
Sessions
Many patients achieve their desired outcome with a single treatment session. Maintenance treatments are individualised according to facial ageing and treatment goals
When to Expect Results
Volume restoration is appreciated immediately following treatment by the CMC gel carrier within the product. Over the following months, collagen production continues to improve facial fullness and structural support, contributing to prolonged rejuvenation.
Results vary between individuals. A medical consultation is required to determine suitability.
