The injectable substance used for collagen stimulation can vary. It includes polylactic acid (PLLA) fillers, calcium hydroxylapatite fillers. Each of these substances works differently to stimulate collagen production in the skin.Once injected into the skin, these substances work through different mechanisms to stimulate collagen production. For instance calcium hydroxylapatite fillers provide immediate volume by attracting water molecules to plump up the skin. Over time, they can also stimulate collagen production indirectly by triggering the skin's natural healing response.Polylactic acid fillers, on the other hand, work by stimulating the production of collagen through a process called neocollagenesis. They are gradually absorbed by the body, prompting fibroblasts (cells responsible for collagen production) to produce new collagen.
Because of their long-lasting results and natural-looking effects. PLLA fillers, such as Sculptra, gradually stimulate collagen production over time, leading to improved skin texture and volume that can last for up to two years. Similarly, calcium hydroxylapatite fillers, like Radiesse, provide immediate volume while also stimulating the body's collagen production, resulting in long-lasting rejuvenation of facial contours. These fillers are favored for their ability to address multiple signs of aging, including wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss, while producing natural-looking and youthful results that enhance overall facial appearance. Additionally, the gradual collagen stimulation process ensures a smooth transition and avoids the overfilled or unnatural look that can sometimes occur with other types of fillers.
