Biostimulators are a class of non-surgical cosmetic injectables designed to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. They are frequently used for patients who want to rejuvenate their facial or body aesthetic and reduce the severity of age-related concerns, from skin laxity to wrinkles to volume loss and beyond.
What Is Radiesse®?
Radiesse® is a highly sought-after injectable that contains a unique formula of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres. Also used traditionally as a dermal filler, Radiesse® in its hyperdiluted form is a popular example of a biostimulator. The addition of lidocaine and saline allows Hyperdiluted Radiesse® to cover a wider range of body areas, often making it ideal for patients who want to tighten skin and replenish volume in the face, neck, décolleté, hands, knees, arms, and elsewhere.
What Is Sculptra® Aesthetic?
Sculptra® Aesthetic is distinguished by its key ingredient: poly-L-lactic acid. Like Hyperdiluted Radiesse® and other biostimulators, Sculptra® Aesthetic can gradually encourage the body to renew its collagen production. By promoting thickness and a sturdy foundation for the skin, the injectable can address wrinkles, fine lines, and other age-related phenomena. Alternatively, a Sculptra® butt lift can add modest shape and fullness to the gluteal region.
