Poly-L-Lactic (Plla)
Discover the rejuvenating effects of Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) treatment, a leading solution in the world of aesthetic medicine for facial volumization and skin revitalization. Our dedicated professionals offer a comprehensive PLLA treatment to address various concerns and promote a natural, youthful appearance. Explore the details of our PLLA treatment below.
Overview
PLLA is made with biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which is gradually and naturally absorbed by the body and helps to rebuild lost collagen through a series of injection treatments. It works deep under the skin to gradually replace lost collagen to correct skin creases, wrinkles, folds and scars, and for skin aging. PLLA works over time to replace collagen – the underlying cause of facial aging – results are not immediate. You will see a gradual change in the appearance of your skin over several weeks as the treatment effect occurs, creating a natural, volumized look. Results can last up to 2 years.
Key Features
-
PLLA encourages the production of collagen over time, resulting in improved skin elasticity and volume.
-
The effects of PLLA are gradual, providing a natural-looking outcome that evolves over a few weeks.
Benefits
Facial Volumization: PLLA treatment enhances facial volume, addressing areas prone to volume loss and sagging.
Wrinkle Reduction: The stimulation of collagen helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, creating a smoother complexion.
Long-Lasting Results: Enjoy long-lasting results as collagen continues to improve skin quality even after the treatment sessions.
Additional Information
Consultation
Before starting PLLA treatment, we conduct a thorough consultation to understand your specific aesthetic goals and concerns. Our experienced practitioners will create a customized treatment plan to address your unique needs.
Aftercare
Please note that (PLLA) is a powder which must be reconstituted and suspended in sterile water before injecting it into the skin. Immediately after your treatment you will feel full in the areas treated, which is a direct effect from the water injected into those areas. This fullness will completely disappear over several hours. Collagen stimulation will naturally start to occur approximately 8-12 weeks after the treatment and will reach a peak within the first 6 months. Please do not equate the lack of immediate results with treatment failure – the results are delayed and will be slowly increasing over time.
* During the first 24-48 hours after treatment, you may experience redness, swelling and tenderness in the treated areas. This is normal and will resolve over the next 2-4 days.
* Bruising at the site of injection is also possible.
* Swelling and bruising can give the appearance of ‘unevenness’ in the area treated. This will settle once the swelling and bruising has gone.
* Avoid Alcohol, caffeine, hot drinks, and spicy food for 24 hours, as these may exacerbate bruising.
