Restore Facial Volume with – Bio Stimulators
What is a Bio Stimulator?
Bio Stimulator is a prescription-only injectable biostimulant designed to gradually restore facial volume lost due to aging. Bio Stimulator contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable synthetic substance that stimulates the body’s own collagen production over time.
Bio Stimulator is approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) for cosmetic use in Australia, and it is used to treat facial volume loss, a common result of aging, illness, or medical treatments.
How Does Bio Stimulator Work?
Bio Stimulator works by stimulating collagen production deep within the skin. Over time, the treated area becomes gradually fuller, leading to a smoother, more youthful appearance. The results are subtle and develop gradually, providing a natural-looking rejuvenation.
- Initial treatment: Bio Stimulator is typically administered over multiple sessions. The exact number of sessions varies based on individual needs.
- Results: Collagen stimulation continues for several months, with optimal results appearing after 2 to 3 treatment sessions.
- Longevity: The results can last for up to 2 years, depending on the individual’s skin condition and lifestyle.
 This treatment is most effective when used as a preventative measure.
