POLY-L-LACTIC ACID
Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) is an advanced injectable treatment designed to stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production for gradual, long-lasting rejuvenation.
Unlike traditional fillers that add immediate volume, PLLA works beneath the surface to restore structure and firmness from within — giving you smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin over time.
This biostimulator treatment helps your skin rebuild its own collagen matrix, resulting in natural, progressive improvement that can last up to two years.
Encourages your body to produce new collagen, improving skin elasticity and density for results that strengthen over time.
Restores youthful volume and smoothness subtly and progressively — avoiding the overfilled or artificial appearance sometimes associated with traditional fillers.
Results can last up to two years as the newly generated collagen continues to support and revitalise the skin’s structure.
Smooths fine lines, improves tone, and enhances skin resilience by addressing the root cause of aging — collagen loss.
Ideal for facial rejuvenation, including cheeks, temples, jawline, and lower face. It can also improve skin quality in areas such as the neck and décolletage.
A non-invasive treatment that allows you to resume daily activities with little to no downtime — perfect for those seeking subtle rejuvenation without recovery time.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
PLLA is a biostimulatory injectable treatment (brands include Sculptra® and Olidia®) that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production to gradually restore volume, firmness, and skin quality.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add instant volume, PLLA stimulates your skin to rebuild its own collagen over time. This creates subtle, natural-looking improvements that develop gradually.
Common areas include the cheeks, temples, jawline, and chin. It can also be used for overall facial rejuvenation and to improve skin laxity in areas such as the décolletage or body.
Results appear gradually over 6–12 weeks as your body produces new collagen. Improvements continue to develop with each session and last well beyond the treatment course.
PLLA results can last up to 2 years or more once a full course is completed, making it one of the longest-lasting injectable treatments available.
Typically, 2–3 sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart are recommended. The exact number depends on your starting point and desired outcome.
The procedure is well tolerated. PLLA is injected into the skin with a fine needle or cannula, and local anaesthetic can be used to minimise discomfort.
Downtime is minimal. You may notice swelling, redness, or small lumps at the injection sites for a few days. Massaging the treated area (as advised by your practitioner) is important for best results.
Yes. PLLA treatments such as Sculptra® and Olidia® have been used worldwide for many years. When performed by a qualified professional, they are considered very safe.
Absolutely. PLLA works well alongside dermal fillers, skin boosters, toxin, and energy-based treatments to achieve a comprehensive rejuvenation plan.
