Biostimulatory Fillers
Biostimulatory Fillers
What are Biostimulatory Fillers?
Biostimulatory fillers are injectable treatments that stimulate the body's own collagen production. Collagen is a protein found naturally in the skin that gives it structure and elasticity. As we age, our collagen production decreases, resulting in visible signs of aging such as wrinkles and sagging skin.
Unlike traditional fillers, which simply add volume to the treatment area, biostimulatory fillers work to actively improve the quality of the skin by increasing collagen production. This can lead to longer-lasting results and a more natural-looking outcome.
How Do They Work?
Radiesse is a unique filler that immediately restores lost volume and stimulates the production of your own natural collagen. Composed of Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres suspended in a gel carrier, Radiesse works beneath the skin’s surface to not only smooth out lines and folds but also to promote a firmer, more youthful complexion over time. Ideal for those looking to achieve long-lasting results in facial contouring and the reduction of moderate to severe wrinkles.
What Makes Biostimulatory Fillers Different?
One of the primary differences between biostimulatory fillers and traditional fillers is the longevity of results. While traditional fillers may last anywhere from 6-18 months, biostimulatory fillers can provide results for up to 2 years or more. This is because the collagen produced by these fillers will continue to work in the skin even after the filler has been fully metabolized.
Another key difference is that biostimulatory fillers do not just treat specific areas of concern, but rather work to improve overall skin quality. This makes them a great option for those looking for a more natural-looking rejuvenation.
Where can Biostimulatory Fillers be used?
Biostimulatory fillers are versatile and can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Volume loss in the cheeks, chin, and temples
- Scarring from acne or other skin conditions
- Overall skin laxity and texture
These fillers are most commonly used on the face, but can also be used on other areas such as the hands.

Enhance Your Treatment with PRP
At Blush Medical Spa, we also offer the option to combine biostimulatory fillers with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) for even better results. PRP is a natural substance derived from your own blood that contains growth factors and other healing properties. When injected in conjunction with biostimulatory fillers, it can further enhance collagen production and improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Before and After
Radiesse and hyper-dilute Radiesse provide subtle, natural enhancement that integrates seamlessly with your facial contours. You can achieve a refreshed appearance that enhances your features while maintaining your unique identity, ensuring you look like the best version of yourself.
One of the key advantages of these fillers is their durability. Results can last up to a year or more with proper maintenance, reducing the frequency of treatments and allowing you to enjoy your youthful look for an extended period without constant touch-ups.
These fillers not only provide immediate volume but also encourage your body to produce collagen over time. This natural process improves skin elasticity and firmness, resulting in a healthier, more youthful complexion that continues to improve long after the initial treatment.
With the add-on option of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), you can enhance your results further. PRP utilizes your own body’s growth factors to accelerate healing and improve overall skin quality.
