If you are beginning to notice facial volume loss, looser skin, or a face that no longer looks as refreshed as you feel, Injectable Collagen Biostimulation (PLLA) offers a subtle, gradual way to support your skin. These collagen injections are made with poly-L-lactic acid, a biostimulator not designed to fill or hydrate the skin right away. Instead, these collagen stimulating injections work with your body to support your natural collagen production over the months ahead.
Your experience begins with a personalized consultation, where a physician listens to your concerns, answers your questions, and creates a treatment plan around you. Every injection is performed exclusively by a licensed physician at both Centre Esthétique Montréal clinics: Old Port and Village.
Injectable Collagen Biostimulation (PLLA) is for clients who prefer their improvement to develop gradually, using their own collagen. These collagen injections differ from a hyaluronic acid dermal filler, which adds volume immediately and may be dissolved if needed, and from a skin booster, which hydrates without adding volume. Collagen biostimulators do neither: they prompt your body to stimulate collagen production on its own, so results appear progressively over the following months.
For the best results, our recommended treatment plan is three vials, with one vial administered every four weeks. During your consultation at one of our Montreal clinics, your physician assesses your facial structure, concerns, and goals, then confirms that this plan is appropriate for you.
Meet with one of our experienced physicians for a personalized assessment of your concerns and goals. Your physician will review your medical history, evaluate your skin or anatomy, discuss suitable treatment options, and answer your questions. If you choose to proceed with treatment on the same day, the consultation fee will be waived.

Before your appointment at one of our Montreal clinics, your physician reviews your medical history, medications, skin, and goals to confirm suitability. When medically appropriate, you may be asked to pause retinoids, exfoliating acids, alcohol, and non-prescribed blood-thinning products. Never stop prescribed medication without medical guidance. A topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand for your comfort.
Your physician prepares the collagen biostimulator beforehand, then places these collagen injections in the planned areas using a fine needle or cannula. Each collagen injection is guided by your facial anatomy. Your appointment lasts approximately 30 minutes. You may feel pressure or a light pinch. Your physician determines the quantity needed according to your individual treatment areas, anatomy, and goals.
Following your session, mild swelling, redness, tenderness, or small bumps at injection points can occur. Most early effects settle within a few days; contact your physician if bumps persist or worsen. Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, alcohol, and direct sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours. Results build gradually over the following months.
At home, use gentle skincare and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen every day. Massage the treated areas only as instructed by your physician. Your sessions are spaced four weeks apart as part of the three-vial plan. Afterward, your physician will recommend a maintenance schedule based on your skin, goals, and response.
Dermal fillers are placed to add targeted volume right away and may be dissolved if needed. Collagen injections do not fill or hydrate the skin directly. Instead, they stimulate your body to produce its natural collagen. The change develops gradually over months, creating support from your own tissue.
These collagen injections are designed for a gradual, progressive change, not an immediate result. Your body needs time to build new collagen. You may first notice a subtle improvement over the following months, with your result continuing to develop after the treatment course. Your physician will explain what is realistic for you.
At Centre Esthétique Montréal, the recommended plan for collagen injections is three vials, with sessions spaced four weeks apart. Your physician will assess your facial anatomy, skin quality, and goals before confirming the number of sessions and amount appropriate for you. Your plan may be adjusted to keep the outcome natural, balanced, and aligned with your needs.
Results vary because collagen stimulating injectables work with your own biology, and natural collagen production, skin quality, lifestyle, and your treatment plan are individual. Rather than promise a fixed number of years, your physician will monitor how your result develops and recommend maintenance when appropriate. This lets your plan respond to your skin and goals instead of following a one-size-fits-all timeline.
At Centre Esthétique Montréal, these collagen injections for the face are used for areas such as the cheeks, temples, and facial folds when gradual support is desired. Your physician examines your facial anatomy and how you have lost volume, then recommends the areas that best suit your goals without over-treating your features.
Yes. After medically supervised weight loss, some people notice a more hollow or deflated appearance in the cheeks or temples, along with less skin support. Collagen injections may support gradual collagen rebuilding and help restore facial volume in a natural looking way. Your physician will determine whether it is appropriate for you.
Most clients describe brief pinches, light pressure, or mild stinging rather than significant pain. A topical numbing cream may be applied before your appointment to improve comfort. Your physician uses a technique suited to your treatment areas and checks in throughout your visit. Tell us if you are anxious or sensitive to injections.
As with any of our injectable treatments, temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising, or small bumps can occur at the injection points. These effects are generally mild and improve in the days following your session, although recovery varies. Your physician will review potential risks, aftercare, and when to contact the clinic before you decide whether to proceed.
Safety begins with proper patient selection, precise placement, and a personalized treatment plan. Before recommending collagen injections, your licensed physician reviews your medical history, medications, contraindications, and potential side effects. If appropriate for you, every injection is performed by a licensed physician at our Old Port or Village clinic in Montreal.
Yes. A personalized consultation at one of our Montreal clinics is required before your first session. Your physician assesses your medical history, medications, facial anatomy, skin condition, and goals, then confirms whether injectable collagen biostimulation is appropriate. If suitable, you may be able to start treatment the same day, subject to the physician's assessment and appointment availability.
