Biostimulant Products and Skin Renewal

Our skin is the largest organ of our body. Skin health and beauty are among the most important topics in dermatology. Biostimulant products offer effective solutions for revitalizing, tightening, and providing a brighter, firmer appearance by stimulating collagen production. In this article, I will thoroughly examine what anti-aging procedures and biostimulant products entail, how they work, how they are applied, and the advantages they offer.

What is Mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy is a general term for a treatment method. It refers to treating cells originating from the mesoderm layer of the skin. This involves addressing the cells in the middle layer of the skin that are responsible for its quality.
Skin revitalization and tightening refer to procedures aimed at achieving a younger and healthier skin appearance. These treatments reduce fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes, and sagging, resulting in a firmer, smoother, and more youthful look.

What is a Youth Vaccine?

The term "youth vaccine" refers to specially formulated products containing vitamins, minerals, polynucleotides, and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, administered into the skin via micro-needling (mesotherapy).
It is a general term encompassing various products that differ significantly in composition. The choice of an appropriate product should be based on age and the specific needs of the skin.

Examples of tailored ingredients include:

• Trehalose & Hyaluronic Acid for a lifting effect
• Biomimetic Peptides for mesobotox effects
• Arbutin for blemish treatments
• Glutathione and Taurine for antioxidant effects
• Polylactic Acid for collagen and elastin production

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin with a high moisture-retention capacity. It helps maintain the skin's hydration balance, making it appear fuller, smoother, and more radiant. With aging, the skin's hyaluronic acid levels decrease, leading to dryness, a dull appearance, lifelessness, and fine wrinkles. These issues can be addressed with hyaluronic acid injections.

Lifting Vaccine (6-Point or 9-Point Lifting)

The lifting vaccine involves injecting specific areas of the face to achieve a lifting effect, enhancing skin tightness and correcting sagging and drooping. These injections, containing non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and collagen-stimulating components, help reduce wrinkles and sagging.

What is Collagen, and What Does It Do?

Collagen is a protein that plays a crucial role in the skin, bones, muscles, and connective tissues. It provides elasticity and firmness to the skin, contributing to a youthful and healthy appearance. With aging, collagen production declines, leading to sagging, wrinkles, and a loss of elasticity. Biostimulant products aim to counter these effects by enhancing collagen production in the skin.

What Are Biostimulant Products?

Biostimulant products are substances that stimulate skin cells to accelerate natural healing and regeneration processes. These products enhance collagen production, resulting in a more youthful, firm, and radiant skin appearance. Common ingredients in biostimulant products include:

• Polycaprolactone
• Polylactic Acid
• Calcium Hydroxyapatite

Polycaprolactone and Polylactic Acid

Polycaprolactone and polylactic acid are two key biostimulant ingredients that stimulate collagen production to firm and rejuvenate the skin. By being injected beneath the skin, they address sagging caused by aging and environmental factors, offering significant benefits in skin tightening treatments.

In Summary

Biostimulant products are innovative and effective solutions that stimulate collagen production by the skin's own cells, revitalizing, tightening, and addressing sagging issues. These treatments contribute to a younger, firmer, and more radiant skin appearance, enhancing quality of life.

Choosing the right product should involve careful consideration of the skin's needs and the ingredients in the products.
For more information about skin health and to explore personalized treatment options, consulting a dermatologist is essential.
