What Are Collagen Biostimulators?
Biostimulators are injectable treatments that promote collagen production, addressing facial volume loss and smoothing wrinkles over time. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate results, biostimulators work gradually to enhance facial contours and improve skin texture. By stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, these treatments offer a more sustainable approach to facial rejuvenation, achieving natural-looking results that evolve over several months.
What Collagen Biostimulators Are Available?
At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, we offer two leading biostimulators: Sculptra® and Radiesse®. Each product is uniquely formulated to target specific aging concerns and enhance facial harmony without surgery.
Sculptra® is a poly-L-lactic acid-based filler designed to replenish lost collagen. It effectively reduces deep facial wrinkles and folds while restoring volume in areas prone to hollowing, such as the cheeks and temples. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra® stimulates collagen production gradually, leading to natural-looking enhancements in facial contours and overall skin texture. At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, Sculptra® treatments involve careful assessment and precise injection techniques by our expert injectors. Sessions typically last about 30 minutes, with multiple treatments spaced several weeks apart recommended for optimal results.
Radiesse® is a calcium-based filler that enhances facial volume and contours by effectively reducing moderate to severe wrinkles and folds. Composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a gel carrier, Radiesse® not only delivers immediate volume and triggers collagen production, leading to long-term skin rejuvenation. This dual mechanism achieves natural-looking facial enhancement that typically lasts longer than many other dermal fillers. At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, Radiesse® treatments commence with a comprehensive consultation to evaluate aesthetic objectives and develop a personalized treatment strategy. The procedure involves meticulous skin cleansing and, if necessary, the application of a topical anesthetic for patient comfort during injections. Utilizing fine needles, the filler is precisely injected into targeted facial areas to immediately enhance volume and stimulate collagen synthesis.
Radiesse® functions by initially providing volume to treated areas while simultaneously activating the body’s natural collagen production. As the gel carrier is gradually absorbed, the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres remain behind, continuing to stimulate collagen growth. This process results in improved skin elasticity, firmer texture, and reduced wrinkles for up to 18 months or longer.

How Do Collagen Biostimulators like Sculptra & Radiesse Differ From Dermal Fillers?
Biostimulators, like Sculptra® and Radiesse®, differ significantly from traditional dermal fillers in their mechanism of action and treatment outcomes. While dermal fillers primarily add immediate volume by filling wrinkles and folds with substances like hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite, biostimulators work by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production over time.
Mechanism of Action
Dermal fillers work instantly upon injection, providing immediate volume to the treated areas. They typically consist of substances that attract water molecules to plump up the skin. In contrast, biostimulators contain materials like poly-L-lactic acid in Sculptra® or calcium hydroxylapatite in Radiesse®. These substances do not immediately fill lines but instead trigger collagen synthesis in the skin’s deeper layers.
Targeted Areas and Benefits
Biostimulators are particularly effective for treating larger areas requiring volume restoration, such as sunken cheeks or temples. They enhance overall facial harmony by gradually improving facial contours and skin texture. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are often used for precise contouring of specific facial features and can provide immediate enhancement of fine lines and wrinkles.
Treatment Timeline and Results
Biostimulator injections require several treatments spaced over several weeks to months. Patients may notice initial improvement, but the full effects become apparent gradually as collagen production increases. This approach leads to subtle and natural-looking results that can last longer than those achieved with dermal fillers, potentially up to two years in some cases for Sculptra® and 12-18 months for Radiesse®.
At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, our expert injectors assess each patient’s unique needs to recommend the most suitable treatment, whether a collagen biostimulator or dermal filler. This ensures personalized care and optimal aesthetic outcomes. Dr. Supriya Tomar, our esteemed founder, discusses her decision to include Sculptra in Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology’s offerings:
Dr. Surpiya Tomar
Founder & Board-Certified Dermatologist
“At our practice, I’ve developed a unique approach to facial rejuvenation by combining the immediate effects of hyaluronic acid fillers with the long-term benefits of Sculptra. Hyaluronic acid fillers deliver instant improvement, while Sculptra works deeper to stimulate collagen production and restore youthful volume gradually. By integrating these treatments, I offer a comprehensive solution that not only provides immediate results but also enhances skin health over time. Many of my patients choose to repeat Sculptra annually, and it’s truly remarkable to see how this approach helps them look more youthful year after year, effectively countering the signs of aging.”
