Bioestimulators

Bioestimulators are active substances that act deep within the dermis, helping to replenish collagen levels. Their reinforced collagen structure provides a foundation that slowly restores the skin's toned appearance, helping to reduce deep facial wrinkles and furrows.

This treatment offers a non-surgical facelift to patients with subtle and natural results. Bioestimulators help to remove fine lines, wrinkles, and increase skin volume, which is lost as a result of aging.

• Stimulates collagen production;
• Smooth, natural, and gradual results (no one will notice that you've had this procedure);
• Long-lasting effects (average duration of 24 months);
• Improves areas of the face that have lost volume, including smile lines and cheekbones;
• Biodegradable, biocompatible, and clinically safe;
• Can be applied to various areas of the face, such as cheekbones, chin, neck, and jawline.

It's natural to feel that you can already notice some differences right after treatment. However, this is due to the slight swelling that may occur and the product used to inject the solution (which can be water or saline). However, this swelling will decrease over the days, and all wrinkles or lines will temporarily reappear. About six weeks after the session, real results begin to appear and improve progressively with each treatment session as collagen is restored, and the skin's internal structure improves.

Remember that collagen needs time to develop naturally, and with bioestimulators, it is not injected directly as in some other treatments. But believe us: the final result is worth it!

The bioestimulators used by LHR's medical specialists come from renowned laboratories that have been in the market for several decades. In addition to the quality of the products used, at LHR Clinic, the procedure is performed by certified doctors, making cases of adverse reactions to this treatment very rare.

However, in some cases, milder symptoms may occur. The most common symptoms of bioestimulator treatment are discomfort, swelling, and, in some cases, redness. These symptoms naturally disappear within about a week.

There are very rare cases of small lumps appearing under the skin in the areas where the intervention was performed, but these disappear over time.

To get the most out of each session and achieve the best results, it's important to take some essential precautions:

• During the first 24 hours after treatment, apply an ice pack to help reduce swelling;
• For 5 days after treatment, massage the affected areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day. This 'rule of 5' is essential for optimizing treatment results;
• Avoid sun exposure until swelling and redness have subsided;
• Use high SPF sunscreen.

This treatment is suitable for men and women of different ages who have some skin sagging.

Between the ages of 25 and 30, collagen production slows down. This is the perfect time to start bioestimulator treatment to help maintain collagen levels. This ensures firmer skin for a longer time. Some even call it 'anti-aging prophylaxis.'

Between the ages of 30 and 40, the use of bioestimulators allows for natural reinforcement of collagen and volume in the cheekbone area, perfect for maintaining the jawline and correcting wrinkles.

After the age of 50, this treatment is ideal for restoring facial volume and contours, correcting sagging, and improving the jawline. Patients achieve the results of a complete facelift without surgery.

This procedure is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Patients with autoimmune diseases should be evaluated beforehand to determine if they are suitable for treatment.

The cost of bioestimulator treatment can vary depending on the area to be treated, but in general, each treatment can range from €250 to €500. The fluctuation in these values depends on the type of bioestimulator used in each treatment. It's essential to remember that this is one of the treatments with the longest-lasting results.
