Biostimulators

What Are Biostimulators?
Biostimulators are advanced injectable treatments that work differently than traditional dermal fillers. Instead of simply adding volume, they stimulate your body to produce new collagen over time, leading to gradual, natural looking improvement in skin firmness, thickness, and facial contour.
At Eden Aesthetics in Brooklyn, New York, we use two leading biostimulators:
- Radiesse®
- Sculptra®
Both are FDA approved and widely used for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
How Do Radiesse and Sculptra Work?
Biostimulators are injected into targeted areas of the face to activate collagen production deep within the skin.
- Radiesse® provides immediate structural support while stimulating collagen, making it ideal for sharper jawlines, chin enhancement, and cheek definition.
- Sculptra® works more gradually, encouraging collagen growth over time to restore volume and improve skin quality subtly and naturally.
Results develop over weeks to months and can last significantly longer than traditional fillers.
What Can Biostimulators Treat?
Biostimulators are well suited for those looking to address:
- Facial volume loss due to aging
- Softening of the jawline or chin that needs more definition
- Hollow or sunken cheeks that need natural restoration
- Loss of skin firmness or thickness
- Early signs of aging without the appearance of obvious wrinkles
These treatments are especially popular for those who want noticeable improvement while maintaining a completely natural, "undone" appearance.
