In our blog post about collagen, we explain how this protein works to give structure to our skin. It also mentions that, over time, the amount of collagen in our skin decreases, especially after the age of 25.

If you haven't read our collagen article yet, it's listed in the "Blog" section here on the site!

But the good news is that there are resources to stimulate the production of collagen by the body that are scientifically proven and effective, one of which is collagen biostimulators.

What are biostimulators made of?

Collagen biostimulators are made of substances that, when injected into the skin, cause a controlled (and desired) inflammatory response, which stimulates collagen production by connective tissue cells in the region where they were applied.

The result is firmer skin, with more freshness and smoother wrinkles, with improved skin support and density.

The treatment can also show excellent results when performed on other body parts, such as arms, thighs, buttocks, among others.

The course of the treatment

Treatment with biostimulators depends on several factors that can only be analyzed in clinical consultation. In general, we analyze the patient's age, the overall appearance of the skin, and other individual needs that must be evaluated in a good anamnesis.

It usually takes at least three sessions with intervals of 30 to 40 days, with visible results around six months. It is recommended to get the treatment regularly, but the precise time will be determined by your dermatologist.

Do healthy habits prevent collagen loss?

Yes and no. It is not possible to "naturally" change the body's aging rhythm with only healthy habits and without any medical interference, but it is clear that having a balanced diet, doing low-impact physical exercise, sleeping well, managing stress, and protecting the skin from sun exposure help to preserve collagen within what is expected according to your age.

Some practices are known for accelerating the aging process and can increase skin sagging, such as high-intensity physical exercise and exposure to the sun, especially without sunscreen. In addition, stress, poor sleep, and smoking also speed up collagen loss in the body.

Therefore, it is preferred to combine healthy habits with esthetic procedures in a balanced way to prevent aging from happening early and quickly.

I am interested in the treatment!

Great! The first step is to schedule an appointment to conduct a detailed assessment of your case and the most suitable referral for you and your life context.
