Collagen has rightly earned its place in everyday conversation. Beginning in our mid-twenties, collagen and elastin synthesis slows, and the architecture that once gave our complexions volume, radiance and elasticity becomes less active. Collagen-boosting treatments re-engage the same repair pathways that sustained our most youthful skin.

How can I tell if my collagen production is declining?

Even when we expect our skin to change, it can be surprising, if not a little unsettling, to see features shift before we feel ready. Common signs of collagen loss include gradual deflation of facial contours, more visible tear troughs or under-eye hollows, softening of the jawline with early jowling, and fine lines that begin to etch into static wrinkles. Skin can look thinner or crepey and may not “snap back” as readily.

Benefits of collagen production

Why collagen matters is simple: it is the primary structural protein that gives skin its firmness and resilience while supporting tissues beneath.

• Replaces and repairs damaged dermal matrix for clearer, more even, more luminous skin

• Rebuilds the skin’s internal scaffolding to improve firmness and lift

• Enhances elasticity and tensile strength, helping soften lines and improve texture

What treatments stimulate collagen best?

The most effective non-surgical treatments work by triggering controlled wound-healing and neocollagenesis, encouraging your skin to lift, tighten, smooth and renew over time. Some results can be seen soon after treatment, while deeper improvements emerge progressively over weeks to months as new collagen and elastin are laid down.

We take a multimodal approach, combining therapies to match your goals and starting point:

Hyaluronic acid (HA) gels

Modern HA gels (commonly referred to as fillers) restore lost volume and refine contours at the temples, under-eyes, cheeks, jawline and chin. While HA primarily replaces volume and attracts water for better skin hydration, it pairs strategically with biostimulating treatments in comprehensive lift plans.

Ultherapy® microfocused ultrasound with real-time imaging

Ultherapy delivers precise thermal coagulation points at targeted depths (dermis and SMAS) to stimulate robust collagen remodeling and natural lifting in the most collagen-rich layers of the face, brow, jawline, neck and décolleté. It is a non-invasive option for patients seeking visible lift and definition without surgery.

Biostimulators: Radiesse® (calcium hydroxyapatite) and Sculptra® (poly-L-lactic acid)

These regenerative “sculptors” trigger natural collagen production to soften etched lines, restore structure in areas of deflation, and subtly lift as they improve the skin’s internal support. They are especially valuable for lower-face volume loss and jawline definition, and for rejuvenation of the hands.

Hydration booster injectables: SkinVive® by Juvéderm® and Restylane® Skinboosters

Micro droplet injections of soft HA improve skin quality by enhancing hydration, smoothness and fine lines from within. These pair beautifully with energy-based tightening to amplify glow and texture.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) photorejuvenation

IPL improves dyschromia (discolouration) such as sun spots and redness and can support collagen remodeling for smoother, more even skin tone. Clearer, brighter skin often makes lifting results appear more pronounced.

Microneedling with SkinPen®

Thousands of precisely controlled micro-channels stimulate the release of growth factors and synthesis of new collagen and elastin, improving fine lines, texture and the look of pores. Series-based plans build results cumulatively.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for skin quality

Your own concentrated platelets deliver growth factors that can improve fine lines, under-eye quality, overall tone and certain scars. PRP is frequently layered with microneedling for synergistic collagen stimulation.

Ultherapy® is our gold-standard collagen-stimulating lift

Ultherapy reactivates collagen production to rebuild the skin’s supportive framework at meaningful depths. Using ultrasound visualization, we can see where we are treating and deliver powerful energy with precision. For patients seeking a lasting, non-surgical solution to skin laxity of the face, neck and décolleté, Ultherapy offers natural-looking lift without incisions. It can also be targeted for refined goals such as brow elevation or jawline contour.

The true benefits of Ultherapy®

• Lifts and tightens lax skin of the face, brow, jawline, neck and décolleté without surgery

• Smooths and softens lines by stimulating new collagen and elastin

• Minimal downtime for most patients, with transient tenderness or redness possible

• Progressive, long-lasting improvement over 2 to 6 months as new collagen matures

• Combines seamlessly with biostimulators, HA fillers, microneedling, IPL and medical-grade skincare for maximal, natural results
