What Is Biostimulation?
Biostimulation, when referring to its use in skin, is a treatment approach that “wakes up” your skin’s own healing mechanisms and works by activating your cell’s natural ability to repair, regenerate, and ultimately rejuvenate tissue. It helps the skin rebuild collagen and elastin, improving its strength and structure, stimulates blood flow, decreases discoloration and redness, and reduces inflammation, which is a hallmark of aging.
Biostimulation in the skin can be achieved in various ways by using products and devices such as:
- Growth factors
- Polynucleotides/DNA fragments (sodium DNA or salmon sperm)
- Exosomes
- Microneedling with or without energy, such as radiofrequency
- Injectables such as Sculptra and Radiesse
All of these approaches stimulate collagen, elastin, microcirculation, and cellular repair — leading to firmer, smoother, healthier-looking skin over time.
Biostimulation does not produce instant results because your body needs time to respond. Most patients notice subtle changes starting around 2–4 weeks, which peak at 8-12 weeks, and continue to improve for 3-6 months. Best results ensue with a series of treatments paired with supportive skin care, and maintenance treatments every 6-12 months, depending on the treatment.
Why Choose Biostimulation?
- Boosts your fibroblast cells to produce new and better-quality collagen and elastin
- Improves skin texture, firmness, and hydration
- Supports ongoing rejuvenation
- Improves skin repair mechanisms
- Promotes gradual, subtle and ongoing natural-looking results
- Reverses signs of cutaneous aging, skin dullness, pigmentation and skin laxity
Biostimulatory Treatment Options at DTC Dermatology
DTC Regenerative Facial Treatment also known as a “Mermaid Facial”
Much more than a facial, this is a customized treatment using a blend of exosomes, polynucleotides, and growth factors delivered via tiny hollow needles into the skin. It boosts radiance, reduces fine lines, improves skin discoloration, increases hydration, and supports tissue repair.
For further details refer to the following:
Hyper-Blended Sculptra® or Radiesse®
These products are not just traditional fillers — they are collagen stimulators when blended in customized ways and injected superficially into the dermis. They gradually rebuild volume and firmness by encouraging your fibroblasts (specialized cells in the skin) to produce new collagen and elastin over weeks and months. This leads to improved skin tone, radiance and firmness, and reduces crepiness. It can be used on practically all skin, but is especially beneficial in the face, neck, décolleté (chest) and arms.
For further details refer to the following:
Radiofrequency microneedling - Morpheus8®
Combines microneedling of the skin using sterile needles of various lengths into the deep dermis and fat layers, accompanied by the delivery of radiofrequency energy to deeply stimulate collagen and elastin formation, tighten skin, and improve texture. It is effective to treat skin laxity, reduces fat excess in areas and improves scarring. It can very nicely rejuvenate the face, neck, and jawline, as well as treat many other areas on the body such as inner arms, thighs, buttocks, and knees.
