A treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural repair process to support firmness and smoothness.
Why Consider Collagen Therapy?
As we get older, our skin naturally produces less collagen, the protein that gives it strength and elasticity. This can lead to fine lines, sagging, or a loss of youthful plumpness. Collagen Therapy aims to gently stimulate your skin to make more of its own collagen, improving texture and firmness over time.
It’s not about overnight transformation. Think of it as encouraging your skin to work from within, gradually restoring its support structure.
How Does Collagen Therapy Work?
Collagen stimulation can be done in different ways, depending on your skin’s needs:
- Microneedling: Creates tiny micro-injuries that prompt skin to heal and produce fresh collagen.
- Energy-based devices (radiofrequency, ultrasound): Deliver controlled heat to deeper layers of the skin, encouraging collagen remodelling.
- Injectable biostimulators: Placed under the skin to boost gradual collagen production.
Your doctor will recommend the most suitable approach after assessing your skin.
What Happens During a Session?
- Before: A consultation helps decide which collagen therapy is right for you. Your skin will be cleansed and prepped.
- During: Depending on the method, you may feel light pricks (microneedling), warmth (energy-based devices), or small injections (biostimulators). Sessions typically take 30–60 minutes.
- After: You may notice mild redness, swelling, or tenderness, which usually settles within a few days. Most people return to their normal routine quickly.
What Kind of Results Can You Expect?
- Gradual improvement in skin firmness and elasticity
- Smoother texture and a more even surface
- Natural-looking results that develop over weeks to months
- Benefits that build with repeat sessions, as collagen takes time to regenerate
Any Side Effects to Know About?
Collagen Therapy is usually well tolerated, but short-term effects depend on the method used:
- Microneedling: Redness, pinpoint bleeding, or mild swelling
- Energy-based devices: Warmth, redness, or tightness in the skin
- Injectables: Bruising or tenderness at injection sites
These effects are typically mild and temporary. Your doctor will go through potential risks and aftercare in detail.
