Biostimulators

Support your skin’s natural collagen production with personalized Sculptra and Radiesse treatments.

Aesthetic injectable treatment consultation with facial contouring
PERSONALIZED AESTHETIC CARE

Gradual rejuvenation, thoughtfully tailored to you.

Biostimulators are injectable treatments that encourage collagen production to improve the appearance of volume loss, skin texture and facial contours over time. At Cosmetica Medical Clinic, we offer Sculptra and Radiesse, with treatment selection guided by your anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Sculptra: Gradual, natural-looking volume

Made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), Sculptra stimulates your body to rebuild collagen over time. It is often chosen for patients who want a subtle, progressive improvement in the appearance of facial volume loss rather than an immediate change. Results build over weeks to months, and a series of treatment sessions may be recommended.

Key benefits: gradual-looking rejuvenation, support for age-related facial volume loss, and improvements that develop as new collagen forms. Sculptra is particularly appealing to patients who prefer a phased treatment approach.

Radiesse: Contour and collagen support

Radiesse is formulated with calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres in a gel carrier. In approved treatment areas, it can provide visible volume or structural support immediately, while also encouraging collagen production over time. Depending on the treatment plan, your provider may discuss different preparation techniques for different goals.

Key benefits: more immediate contour or volume improvement in suitable areas, definition and support where appropriate, and longer-term collagen stimulation. Radiesse may be preferred when a patient wants a more noticeable initial change as well as ongoing collagen support.

Your treatment experience

During your consultation, your injector assesses your facial structure, medical history and goals, then recommends a personalized number of vials or syringes. Multi-vial and multi-syringe package pricing is available.

What to know

Swelling, tenderness and bruising can occur. Injectable treatments also carry uncommon but serious risks, including vascular complications. Your provider will review risks, expected results and aftercare before treatment.

SCULPTRA VS. RADIESSE

Two ways to support your natural beauty.

Both treatments stimulate collagen, but they work differently. The right choice depends on whether your priority is gradual volume restoration, more immediate contouring, or a combination of goals.

GRADUAL REJUVENATION

Sculptra

Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)

How it works Encourages collagen production progressively, with results emerging over time.

When results appear Gradually over weeks to months; not designed for immediate filler-like volume.

Best suited for Patients seeking subtle, progressive improvement in age-related facial volume loss.

Treatment approach Commonly performed as a series of sessions, tailored to your goals.

CONTOUR + COLLAGEN

Radiesse

Calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA)

How it works Provides gel-based support in appropriate uses and stimulates collagen over time.

When results appear Immediate contour or volume in suitable uses, with additional collagen-related changes later.

Best suited for Patients seeking structural definition or volume support in appropriate treatment areas.

Treatment approach Product amount, placement and preparation depend on the area and desired outcome.

What they have in common: Both require an individualized assessment, may involve multiple syringes or vials, and can cause swelling, bruising or tenderness. Neither is a hyaluronic acid filler, so neither can be reversed with hyaluronidase. Results and duration vary, and not every facial area is appropriate for either product.
ABOUT BIOSTIMULATORS

Collagen support that evolves over time

Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, biostimulators are selected for their ability to support the body's collagen response. The right product, amount and schedule depend on the treatment area and your individual needs.

Who may benefit?

Patients concerned about age-related facial volume changes, contour definition or skin quality may be candidates. Your provider will evaluate whether a biostimulator or another approach is appropriate.

How many treatments will I need?

The recommended quantity and number of sessions vary. Sculptra often involves a series of treatments, while Radiesse plans depend on the area, product preparation and desired result.

When will I see results?

Collagen-related improvements develop gradually. Radiesse can also provide immediate volume in some uses. Your injector will discuss realistic timelines, maintenance and follow-up.
