Collagen Stimulating Treatment

In accordance with TGA regulations, we cannot provide specific details about collagen stimulating treatments online. A consultation is required to assess your individual needs and suitability. Prior to treatment, you will meet with a prescribing doctor who will create a personalised treatment plan based on your assessment.

Collagen stimulators are designed to improve skin quality by promoting natural collagen production. They help enhance texture, tone, and elasticity, making them ideal for addressing fine lines, skin laxity, and volume loss. Offering long-term skin health benefits, this treatment provides natural-looking results with minimal downtime and no need for surgery.

Medication and Health Considerations: To reduce the risk of bruising, avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil for one week before your appointment. Inform your clinician of any existing medical conditions, medications, or supplements you are taking, including anticoagulants.
Registration and Consent: You will receive a registration and consent form via text prior to your appointment. Please complete these forms ahead of time to streamline your check-in process.
Makeup-Free Arrival: For the best possible outcome, arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. If makeup is worn, it will be removed from the areas being treated before your session.

Consultation: Before treatment, you will undergo a detailed consultation, which includes clinical photography and a discussion of your concerns and treatment goals. A prescribing doctor will also review your case to ensure the treatment is suitable for your needs.
Treatment Duration: The procedure generally lasts 30 minutes, with the treatment portion taking about 5–10 minutes, depending on the areas being addressed.
Treatment Process: A small amount of product will be introduced into targeted areas using a cannula or fine needle. The procedure may cause mild discomfort, but no anaesthetic is required.
Pain Relief: Ice may be used to help manage any discomfort during or after the procedure.
Risks and Side Effects: While uncommon, potential side effects include mild swelling, redness, bruising, and tenderness. Rare complications may include infection, allergic reactions, and skin irregularities. Following pre- and post-treatment instructions and choosing a qualified practitioner can help minimise risks.

Cooling & Swelling Management: Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites is normal and should subside within 24–48 hours. A cool compress may be applied if needed.
Makeup & Skin Contact: Avoid applying makeup for at least 12 hours post-treatment to reduce the risk of irritation or infection. Refrain from touching or massaging the treated areas.
Activity & Exercise: Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat (e.g., saunas, hot showers), and swimming for 24 hours to reduce the risk of swelling or irritation.
Additional Treatments: Wait at least 2 weeks before undergoing any other skin treatments (e.g., laser, chemical peels, or needling) to ensure proper healing.
Aftercare Support: If you experience prolonged swelling, redness, or any unexpected reactions, please contact us for further assistance.

When Will I See Results?
Initial effects may be noticeable within a few weeks, with the full results typically visible in 3 to 4 weeks as the product stabilises and settles into the skin. Mild swelling may occur for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment, but this generally resolves as the product integrates into the skin.

Treatment Schedule:
Multiple treatments may be recommended, generally spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve the best results. Maintenance treatments are generally advised every 12–18 months to maintain skin appearance.

Follow-Up:
A follow-up appointment at 2 weeks is recommended to assess the results. Further treatments may be scheduled as necessary to maintain the desired outcome.
