Deep and long-lasting biostimulation

Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is a biostimulator that does not merely fill, but stimulates tissues to produce new collagen. It is indicated for:

  • Significantly hollowed and gaunt faces
  • Volume loss in temples and cheeks
  • Thin skin lacking firmness and tone
  • Body skin laxity (buttocks, arms, knees)
  • Patients seeking gradual and natural-looking results

Typically, 2–3 sessions spaced about one month apart are scheduled; results build up over the months and can last up to two years.
