What is Biostimulation?

Aesthetic biostimulation refers to treatments that capitalize on your body’s natural processes of regeneration, repair, and rejuvenation to enhance skin health and appearance. At FACE, we especially love the gradual onset, natural-looking results biostimulators create on the face and neck.

Biostimulation includes treatments like microchanneling, plasma fibroblast, skin boosters, and stem cell add-ons, as well as biostimulatory fillers like Sculptra and Radiesse. Think of these as preventive treatments when it comes to aging. 

Unlike surgical procedures, the noninvasive and minimally invasive biostimulatory treatments we provide at FACE work synergistically with your body's biological processes. Because they offer gradual improvements that compound over time, biostimulators are a natural-looking way to slow down the visible signs of aging and enhance your already gorgeous self.

What are the benefits of biostimulatory treatments?

All biostimulators aim to slow down the visible signs of the aging process by engaging your body’s natural processes. 

  • Enhances the structural integrity of your skin.

  • Boosts your skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin.

Biostimulation Treatments

Sculptra works by promoting your body's collagen production, leading to longer-lasting and more natural-looking outcomes. Over time, It gradually replenishes lost volume, smooths out wrinkles and fine lines, and improves skin texture.

Procell Microchanneling uses stem cells and growth factors to repair and rejuvenate your skin on a cellular level. This process helps to renew the skin, improve its texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Plasma fibroblast treatments stimulates the skin's natural regenerative processes, promoting collagen and elastin production to smooth, tighten, and subtly volumize the skin for the natural-looking results you desire.

Skin Boosters like SkinVive are microdroplets of hyaluronic acid that are injected into the superficial layers of the skin for long-term hydration and a natural, radiant glow—all while increasing the production of collagen and elastin

CryoFacial refreshes the look of your face and neck by boosting blood flow via cold temperatures. Enhanced oxygen supply stimulates collagen and elastin production to minimize wrinkles and pores while enhancing skin elasticity.

Achieve a sculpted jawline and chin with Cryoskin Chin, which combines CryoSlimming for fat reduction and CryoToning for skin firming. Together, these treatments slim and tone, all while improving skin health and cellular function.

Biostimulation Pros & Cons

While they offer a range of distinct benefits, biostimulatory treatments also require patience because improvements manifest over time and sometimes require multiple treatments. If you are considering them, use the info below to help you make the most informed decisions about aesthetic biostimulation.

PROS:

  • Because they work with your body’s innate healing processes, biostimulators produce natural-looking results. 

  • By triggering the stimulation of collagen and elastin, they enhance skin elasticity and firmness while encouraging tissue regeneration.

  • For some treatments like biostimulatory fillers, results are longer-lasting when compared to improvements from HA fillers. 

  • By working to enhance skin health and healing, biostimulators simultaneously target a range of issues, including wrinkles, fine lines, skin laxity, and uneven texture.

  • All materials used in biostimulatory treatments are biocompatible, meaning they are not harmful to your living tissues. 

  • For the same reason, biostumulators carry a relatively low risk of adverse reactions.

CONS:

  • Because results unfold slowly over time, you will not see changes immediately following your appointment.

  • Biostimulators do not produce as dramatic an improvement as other treatments. 

  • Some treatments require multiple sessions or regular ongoing treatments for optimal results.

  • Depending on the treatment you receive, there may be risks such as bruising, swelling, or infection.
