A collagen stimulator is an injectable treatment that encourages your body to produce more collagen naturally. Rather than adding instant volume like traditional fillers, it works gradually to improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall quality by promoting fresh collagen growth.

Benefits

• Long-lasting improvements, often 1–2 years
• Enhanced skin texture and elasticity through boosted collagen
• Natural softening of fine lines and wrinkles
• Stimulates tissue renewal for a firmer, more youthful complexion

Booking a consultation with our experienced doctors at our Southbank cosmetic clinic near Melbourne’s CBD is the best way to discuss your concerns and goals and design the right plan for you.

The Process

Step 1: Initial consult

On arrival, you’ll complete a short medical questionnaire to ensure your treatment is safe and appropriate. We’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations and create a personalised plan. We’ll also review potential risks or complications. If you choose to proceed, treatment can often be performed at the same visit, or you can rebook.

Step 2: Treatment

The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the number of areas and techniques used.

Common side effects include:

• Bruising
• Redness
• Tenderness

Step 3: Aftercare

Immediately after treatment:

• Avoid lying down for at least 4 hours
• Do not rub or massage the treated area (unless instructed)

For the next 48 hours:

• Refrain from strenuous exercise; walking is fine
• Avoid excessive heat and sun exposure

For 1 week:

• Apply sunscreen SPF 30+ daily
• Avoid facial massages

For 2 weeks:

• Avoid laser treatments
• Refrain from dental procedures if the lower face was treated
• Do not get tattoos
