WHAT ARE COLLAGEN STIMULATORS?
Collagen stimulators — such as Sculptra or Radiesse — are injectable treatments that work beneath the skin to gradually restore lost volume and improve skin quality. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, these treatments stimulate your body's own collagen production over time, creating natural-looking, long-lasting results.
THEY CAN BE USED TO:
- Restore facial volume loss due to ageing
- Improve skin texture and firmness
- Lift and contour the cheeks temples or jawline
- Smooth nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Rejuvenate hands and décolletage
- Enhance overall facial structure

What to Expect
A qualified practitioner injects the bio-stimulating product into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The product acts as a scaffold, encouraging the body to produce new collagen. Results appear gradually over several weeks as collagen builds, creating volume and improving skin quality from within.

I've never had any injectable treatments before, and after lurking for a while I jumped on the opportunity to try Sculptra after seeing their incredible portfolio. Ametrine has curated such a warm and welcoming space, Bryony and Kirsty's knowledge is so impressive and reassuring, you definitely feel in safe hands. I'm in love with the tailored, natural, and just "me" but enhanced results. I'll definitely be continuing my journey with the team, and looking forward to trying the other services in the future!! :) Thank you so much

I recently had Sculptra with Dr Yiannis and I couldn't be happier. The results are amazing and look incredibly natural. Dr Yiannis clearly an expert, he made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. Truly a fantastic experience! Back soon now for my under eyes treatment.

I’ve been having treatments with Dr. Dania Jones for the last 5 years, including dermal fillers and Sculptra, and the results have been consistently outstanding. She’s exceptionally skilled, with a true artistic eye and deep understanding of facial harmony. Dr. Dania is warm, professional, and always takes the time to listen and tailor treatments to suit my features. I trust her completely—my face is in the best hands! If you’re looking for subtle, natural, and long-lasting aesthetic results, I can’t recommend her enough!

Had the sculptra procedure done by Claire, and it was amazing. After 3 compliments in one week the results must be now showing. She explained the entire process to me, and made me feel so comfortable, outstanding service from everyone here, and the staff are so friendly and kind. Big thank you to the girls for everything
Karen Coe
I have been worried about wrinkles on my face for some time and decided I needed some help . Thank goodness I found Skin Deep Medical ! Chiara has been great, patiently explaining the procedure and after care and being very gentle during the treatment . I can see improvement already though the Sculptra method is a slow treatment taking several weeks to gradually improve skin tone . Recommended by Chiara and more suitable for someone my age . Thanks Chiara

FAQs
Collagen stimulator injections are injectable treatments that encourage your own body to produce more collagen in the skin. Instead of simply adding volume like traditional dermal fillers, they work gradually over time to thicken and firm the skin, improve structure and soften lines, giving a more natural-looking, long-lasting result.
Collagen stimulator injections contain biocompatible particles that are placed into the deeper layers of the skin. These particles act as a scaffold that triggers a controlled healing response, prompting your body to lay down new collagen around them. As this new collagen forms over the following weeks and months, the treated area becomes firmer, smoother and better supported, while the particles themselves are slowly broken down and absorbed by the body.
Collagen stimulator injections are typically used to treat areas of volume loss, sagging or crepey skin. Common treatment areas include the cheeks, jawline, temples, lower face, neck and sometimes the décolletage or backs of the hands. They can help to restore facial contours, soften deeper folds and improve overall skin quality by boosting thickness and elasticity.
Results from collagen stimulator injections develop gradually, usually becoming noticeable after a few weeks and continuing to improve over several months as new collagen is formed. Depending on the product used, the treatment plan and your individual response, results can often last 18–24 months or longer. Many people choose a course of sessions to build collagen, followed by occasional maintenance treatments to keep the effect.
Collagen stimulator injections have a good safety record when performed by an experienced, medically qualified practitioner using licensed products. As with any injectable treatment, there are potential risks, including bruising, swelling, tenderness, small lumps or asymmetry, and more rarely infection or other complications. A thorough consultation, honest discussion of your medical history and realistic expectations are essential to decide if this treatment is appropriate for you.
