About this treatment

Collagen stimulation
in Melbourne.

Collagen stimulator client at BYGOLDEN Parkdale Melbourne

Your skin loses around 1% of its collagen each year from your mid-20s. Over time, that loss shows in a softening of firmness, structure and definition.

Collagen stimulators work with your own biology. Placed precisely beneath the surface over a series of sessions, they prompt your fibroblasts to produce new collagen, rebuilding support from within. No sudden change, no artificial look.

Treatment at BYGOLDEN is guided by 3D imaging, so progress is measured rather than guessed. Results last 18 to 24+ months. A cosmetic medicine consultation is required before treatment begins.

The treatment

What collagen
stimulators do

Collagen stimulators are injectable biostimulators that rebuild your skin's collagen framework from within. Unlike fillers that add volume through a placed substance, collagen stimulators trigger your own fibroblasts to produce new collagen, creating structural improvement that is natural, gradual and long-lasting.

They are particularly suited to clients experiencing facial volume loss, skin laxity or hollowing in areas where surface treatments cannot adequately address the underlying deficit. Because the result is built from your own collagen, it develops quietly over months and settles into a natural appearance.
