Volumising treatments vs Bio-Remodelling vs Collagen Stimulators

Traditional Volumising Treatments add volume to specific facial features, restoring facial volume and enhancing contours.

Bio-Remodelling targets overall skin quality and texture, focusing on hydration, firmness, and elasticity.

Collagen Stimulators stimulate collagen production for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, addressing fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity, and overall skin quality.

Prior to treatment:

Medication and Health Considerations: To help reduce the risk of bruising, refrain from blood-thinning medications like aspirin, ibuprofen, and fish oil for one week before your appointment. Additionally, please inform your clinician if you have an autoimmune disorder, regularly take anti-coagulation therapy (e.g., Warfarin), or have a severe metabolic or systemic disorder.

Registration and Consent: Expect to receive a registration and consent form via text message. Please complete these forms before your appointment to expedite the process upon your arrival.

Makeup-Free Arrival: For optimal results, we recommend arriving at your appointment makeup-free. If you do have makeup on, we will need to remove it from the areas we’ll be treating.

What to Expect During Your Appointment:

Comprehensive Consultation: Prior to any treatment, you will receive a thorough consultation. This includes clinical photography and detailed discussions regarding your concerns and expectations. Additionally, you will have a consultation with our prescribing Doctor to ensure your treatment plan aligns with your goals.

Appointment Duration: Your appointment will typically be 30 minutes with the treatment itself usually taking around 5-10 minutes, but this may vary depending on the areas being treated.

Treatment Process: The procedure involves a small amount of the prescribed substance being administered into specific areas using a cannula needle. The injections may sting for a few seconds, but no anaesthetic is required. It’s important to note that each practitioner may utilise a different technique, ensuring that each treatment is uniquely tailored to your needs.

Pain relief options (if necessary): Ice

Discussion of risks: Collagen stimulators are generally safe but come with some risks, including mild swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness, and minor discomfort, which usually subside within a few days. Rare complications include infection, allergic reactions, nodules or lumps, asymmetry, vascular issues, product migration, delayed reactions, and skin discolouration. These risks can be minimised by choosing a qualified practitioner, following pre- and post-treatment instructions, discussing medical history, and ensuring a sterile environment for the procedure.

Post Treatment Care:

After your treatment, it’s essential to follow proper aftercare to ensure optimal results and minimise any potential side effects. Here are some general precautions to observe:

Apply Ice/Cool Compress: To alleviate discomfort, swelling, and bruising, gently apply an ice pack or cool compress to the treated area.

Avoid Makeup: Refrain from applying makeup to the treated area for at least 4 hours following your treatment. This allows the skin to recover and reduces the risk of irritation and infection.

Avoid Certain Activities: Avoid lying down immediately after your treatment and refrain from engaging in strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours. These activities can increase swelling and disrupt the treatment area.

Delay Facial Treatments: Postpone any facial treatments such as laser procedures or chemical peels for at least 2 weeks following your treatment. This gives your skin time to heal and reduces the risk of irritation or complications.

Avoid Touching Your Face: Resist the urge to touch or apply pressure to the treated area. This helps prevent displacement of the product and ensures optimal results.

Following these guidelines will help you achieve the best possible outcome from your treatment. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us for further assistance.

When will I see results?

Results from collagen stimulator treatments typically start to become noticeable within a few weeks to a couple of months post-treatment, with ongoing improvements in skin texture, firmness, and volume over several months as collagen production increases. While initial changes may be visible relatively quickly, optimal results often develop gradually over time, requiring patience and multiple treatment sessions for the desired outcome. It’s crucial to have realistic expectations and understand that individual responses may vary. Overall, collagen stimulator treatments offer long-term benefits for skin rejuvenation, with visible improvements continuing to evolve over time.

Follow-up Appointment:

Review appointments following your treatment are strongly encouraged. These appointments provide an opportunity for our team to assess your progress, address any concerns you may have, and make adjustments as needed to optimise your results. Your satisfaction and comfort are our top priorities, and these follow-up sessions allow us to ensure that we are meeting your skincare goals effectively.

Recommended Treatment Schedule for Optimal Results

For optimal results, we typically recommend a treatment schedule that starts with two to three sessions spaced approximately four weeks apart. This initial phase allows for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, laying the foundation for lasting improvements. Following this, maintenance treatments are usually advised every 6 to 12 months to sustain the results and keep your skin looking healthy and rejuvenated.
