Collagen Stimulation?
What is
Collagen stimulation refers to a category of prescription aesthetic treatments designed to support the body’s natural collagen production over time.
​
Collagen is a structural protein within the dermis that contributes to skin firmness and tissue support. As collagen production gradually declines, changes in skin structure and density may become more noticeable.
​
At The Glow Co. Aesthetics Brisbane, collagen stimulation treatments are considered following consultation and clinical assessment. These treatments are prescription-only and require medical evaluation prior to booking.
Collagen Stimulation Work?
How does
Collagen stimulation treatments activate a controlled biological response within the dermis.
​
This response encourages fibroblast activity, which contributes to collagen production over time. Unlike treatments designed to provide immediate volume or muscle relaxation, collagen stimulation focuses on gradual structural support.
​
Because this process relies on the body’s natural response, outcomes develop progressively and vary between individuals.
​
Treatment planning, product selection and dosing are determined during consultation.
