What Are Biostimulators?

Biostimulators are specialized injectable treatments that stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production. Unlike neuromodulators like Botox®, which relax muscles to reduce wrinkles, biostimulators work beneath the surface to improve skin thickness, elasticity, and volume gradually.

Common biostimulators include products such as Sculptra®, Radiesse® and Redensity, which are used to restore youthful contours, smooth fine lines, and improve the overall appearance of aging or thinning skin.

How Biostimulators Work

Biostimulators are injected into targeted areas of the face or body where volume loss or skin laxity is present. Once in place, they trigger your body’s collagen production, helping to rebuild structure and support for a firmer, smoother appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

faq

Yes. Biostimulators like Sculptra® and Radiesse® are considered safe when administered by trained medical professionals. They are made from biocompatible materials and work with your body to stimulate collagen naturally. Temporary side effects can include mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few days.

While both add volume, traditional dermal fillers provide immediate lift, whereas biostimulators gradually build collagen for longer-term structural improvement.


Ideal candidates are adults seeking to restore facial volume, improve skin texture, and reduce signs of aging. Biostimulators are not recommended for patients with certain medical conditions or allergies to product ingredients.
