Calcium hydroxylapatite collagen stimulator injections in Montreal

A calcium hydroxylapatite collagen stimulator does two things at once. The gel that carries it lifts a fold the moment it is placed, and the microspheres inside it prompt your skin to build its own collagen over the following weeks. The result holds for 12 to 18 months.

Overview

What the treatment does, and how a first visit goes.

01

What does a calcium hydroxylapatite collagen stimulator do?

It works on two timescales. The gel it is suspended in fills a fold the moment it is injected, so the change is visible when you leave. Underneath, calcium microspheres form a scaffold your skin builds new collagen around, and that is what carries the result once the gel has been absorbed.

That combination is the reason to choose it over a plain filler. A fold that has been smoothed and a face that has rebuilt some of its own structure hold differently, and the result lasts 12 to 18 months rather than a few months.

The material is firmer than hyaluronic acid, which is why it belongs in areas that want structure. Your practitioner will steer it away from the lips and the skin around the eyes, where it is not appropriate.

02

What areas can it treat?

It suits areas that want structure: a fold that has deepened, a jawline that has softened, the back of the hand where volume has gone. In a diluted form it is also used across larger areas, where the aim is skin quality rather than lift.

It is not used in the lips, the skin around the eyes, the area between the brows, or the nose. Your practitioner assesses the whole face at consultation and will tell you which areas suit it and which want a different product.

Areas treated

Where this treatment is used

Every area is assessed on its own. Some are treated together in one visit, some are better left for another day, and we will tell you which is which.

  • 01

    Cheeks and midface

    Volume across the cheekbone, which lifts everything below it.

  • 02

    Nasolabial folds

    The folds from nose to mouth. The best-documented use for this material.

  • 03

    Marionette lines

    The lines running down from the corners of the mouth.

  • 04

    Jawline

    Definition from chin to ear, where a firmer material holds its shape.

  • 05

    Chin and pre-jowl

    Projection at the chin, and the hollow that forms just ahead of the jowl.

  • 06

    Temples

    The hollow above the cheekbone that narrows the upper face.

  • 07

    Hands

    The back of the hand, where tendons and veins stand out as volume goes.

  • 08

    Neck

    Skin quality and crepiness, treated in a diluted form.

  • 09

    Décolleté

    The chest, where sun exposure and sleeping position both leave lines.

  • 10

    Upper arms

    Skin laxity along the inner upper arm, treated in a diluted form.

Why patients choose it

What you can count on, every visit

Smooths deeper folds

Nasolabial folds and marionette lines ease the moment the product is placed.

Stimulates your own collagen

Calcium microspheres form a scaffold the skin builds new collagen around.

Visible the same day

The lift is there when you leave, and it keeps improving over the following weeks.

Holds 12 to 18 months

Longer than a hyaluronic acid filler, because the collagen outlasts the gel.

Improves skin texture

Diluted across a larger area, it works on skin quality rather than volume.
