Sculptra & Radiesse
Bio-Stimulator Treatments
Bio-Stimulator Treatments
Sculptra and Radiesse are bio-stimulants that encourage your body's natural collagen production rather than simply adding volume like traditional fillers. Made of Poly-L-Lactic Acid (Sculptra) or Calcium Hydroxylapatite (Radiesse), they trigger a controlled response that recruits fibroblasts and stimulates collagen in the dermis.
Results develop gradually, peaking at six months post-treatment, with effects lasting up to 25 months. Both needle and cannula techniques are used depending on the treatment area.
Two proven formulations for collagen stimulation

Before These are bio-stimulants made of Poly-L-Lactic Acid (Sculptra) or Calcium Hydroxylapatite (Radiesse) that encourage your body's natural collagen production rather than just adding volume like traditional fillers.
While fillers add immediate volume, Sculptra works by triggering a controlled response that recruits fibroblasts and stimulates collagen in the dermis. The body absorbs the injectable within 24-48 hours, then builds collagen naturally over time.
Results develop gradually, peaking at six months post-treatment. Collagen continues developing for up to one year. Full results are typically visible after completing the treatment series.
Results can last up to 25 months. Some research indicates duration extending to two years. Annual maintenance of 1-2 vials is recommended to maintain results.
Dosage varies by age and area: 20-30 years typically need 1-2 vials, 30-40 years need about 4 vials, 40-60 years need around 6 vials, and 60+ may need 8+ vials. Neck/chest requires about 3 vials, buttocks 10-30 vials.
Practitioners use both needle and cannula techniques depending on the treatment area. Expect some bruising and swelling post-procedure, which is normal and resolves within days.
Bio-stimulators are not recommended for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have certain autoimmune conditions, are on anti-inflammatory or steroid medications, or have active cancer or illness. We'll review your medical history during consultation.
