Collagen stimulating fillers, like hyaluronic acid fillers, are performed in the same manner and both offer excellent facial rejuvenation results. HA and collagen stimulating fillers improve the look of the skin by removing fine lines and wrinkles and also filling in areas where volume is lacking. At our clinic in Norwich, we offer collagen stimulating fillers to give skin a plumper, smoother look and feel. Collagen is a key part of your skin’s structure. It forms a network of fibers within your skin that acts like a framework.
In young skin, the collagen framework is intact and the skin remains moisturised and elastic. Over time, the support structure weakens and the skin loses its elasticity. The skin begins to lose its tone as the collagen support wears down.
We use Ellansé™ and Radiesse™ which work to restore lost volume and shape with natural looking results. With immediate results and continued benefits, collagen stimulating fillers work by stimulating your body’s own natural collagen.
What are collagen stimulating fillers effective for?

Collagen stimulating fillers are injected into the skin. The gel carrier acts as an instant filler, providing immediate correction. As the gel carrier is absorbed (within 8-12 weeks) the calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres act as a scaffold and stimulate the production of new collagen in and around them.
Eventually the microspheres degrade into calcium and phosphate ions and are removed from the body in a natural process of elimination.
For 72 hours before the treatment avoid Alcohol , Vitamin A, C, or E, Gingko Biloba, Garlic & fish oils, St Johns Wart supplements and medications such as Ibuprofen, Aspirin as these can increase the risk of bruising.
There may be some redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising which should settle within days.
Makeup should not be worn for 12 hours following treatment. Please refrain from drinking alcohol on the day of treatment. You should follow the aftercare advice provided by Joolia Gilvey.
Collagen Stimulating Fillers are expected to last 12-24 months; in some cases the duration may be shorter or longer than expected. It will always degrade over time and you will return to your pre-treatment state without further treatment.
