Collagen Stimulation
Rebuild your skin's foundation from within
The Power of Collagen
Collagen is the most abundant protein in your skin, providing the structural framework that keeps it firm, smooth, and youthful. By stimulating your body's natural collagen production, we can restore this foundation for lasting improvement in skin quality.
After age 25, we lose approximately 1% of our collagen each year. This gradual loss leads to wrinkles, sagging, loss of volume, and decreased skin elasticity. Collagen stimulation therapies work by triggering your body's natural healing response, prompting fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin.
Why Collagen Matters
Structural Support
Collagen provides the scaffolding that keeps skin firm and prevents sagging.
Hydration
Collagen helps skin retain moisture for a plump, healthy appearance.
Elasticity
Works with elastin to maintain skin's ability to bounce back.
Radiance
Healthy collagen contributes to a smooth, glowing complexion.
Our Collagen Stimulation Treatments

- Months 4-6: Optimal results as collagen continues to build
- 1-2+ Years: Results maintained as long as new collagen persists
Supporting Collagen Production
Maximize your collagen stimulation results with healthy habits:
Protect from Sun
UV exposure breaks down collagen. Daily SPF is essential for protecting your investment.
Avoid Smoking
Smoking accelerates collagen breakdown and impairs healing.
Nutrition
Protein, vitamin C, and antioxidants support collagen synthesis.
Rest & Hydration
Adequate sleep and water intake support your body's healing processes.
