Lanluma Collagen-Stimulating Injections

Lanluma is an innovative biorejuvenation product designed for aesthetic and anti-aging skin treatments. It is commonly used for skin rejuvenation, enhancing facial contours, and improving overall skin quality.

It is a type of biostimulator – an injectable treatment to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and enhance overall skin firmness and elasticity. It is often used for areas like the face, neck, and decolletage to restore volume and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin. As a biostimulant, its effects typically develop over time as collagen builds up, offering a gradual improvement in skin quality.

Lanluma is used contains polycaprolactone (PCL), a biodegradable polymer. This works to trigger renewal and rejuvenation responses within the skin for a naturally younger and fresher look.

Collagen restoration

This approach is more gradual than dermal filler as it works by replenishing your own facial collagen which restores volume in the face that has been lost over time.

Collagen is the protein your body produces to give your skin a firm and youthful appearance, but from an early age (25 years) the amount you produce slows down and facial volume is lost.

Lanluma can redress the balance by stimulating collagen production again.

This treatment can be used to gradually and subtly smooth out lines, wrinkles and folds, as well as tackling loss of facial volume which can happen with the natural ageing process or dramatic weight loss.

Lanluma can be used to treat:

• Deeper wrinkles, lines or folds
• Hollow areas e.g. gaunt cheeks, temples
• Cheekbones – to add definition
• Jowls – to lift up saggy jowls
• Improvement of skin texture and elasticity
• Treatment of skin laxity (sagging or loose skin)

Lanluma Procedure

Lanluma is injected with a fine needle or cannula into specific areas of the skin. The depth and technique of injection can vary based on the area being treated and the desired outcome. Techniques are optimised to avoid bruising or damaging vessels.

To start, a course of treatments is required and the number of treatments required will depend on age and skin condition. Directly after treatment the fullness is visible due to initial swelling and water content of the product, therefore, you will see a reduction in a couple of days. Collagen stimulation is a slow and gradual process so the first real results can be noticed four to six weeks after the first treatment. Please note that in some patients a difference may not be noticeable for more than 6 weeks. Results of Lanluma collagen stimulation are long-lasting but need maintenance.

Patients can normally return to work immediately after treatment.

Lanluma may be combined with other treatments. The timing of any combination of treatments will be agreed upon during consultation.
