We do not fill—we switch on
A filler fills. A stimulator builds
A filler gives volume immediately and on its own. A collagen stimulator is a signal: it sets fibroblasts to work, and the skin builds up its own framework. The effect does not arrive instantly—but it looks like your skin rather than like a treatment.
What to expect
Choosing the product
Radiesse gives visible remodeling straight away plus stimulation
The collagen-based products—Collost and Sferogel—work more gently and gradually, rebuilding density. What suits you is decided by the doctor, based on the condition of your skin and your goal
The session
The product is placed across the mapped areas
Topical anesthetic is applied; some protocols are performed with a cannula within the dermis—with that technique there is no pain. The appointment takes up to 60 minutes
Recovery
Mild swelling for up to 3–5 days, possible bruising for up to 7–10 days
For swelling, a cold compress through a cloth for 5–10 minutes helps
The result builds
The full effect unfolds over 2–3 months as collagen is synthesized, and it lasts longer than with fillers
This is an investment in skin quality, not a one-off correction
Your doctor will tell you what fits at your consultation
Indications
For those who want a lasting, natural anti-age effect without any change to their features.
Sound familiar? Let’s talk it through in person
Your doctor will examine your skin, tell you honestly whether this method is right for you, and put together a plan. A consultation commits you to nothing
Indications are not yet a protocol
Your doctor tailors the area, number of sessions and settings to your skin. Three questions and we’ll name your protocol, price included
The essentials, answered
How is it different from fillers?
A filler fills volume by itself. A collagen stimulator triggers the production of your own collagen—the effect does not arrive immediately, but it looks more natural and lasts longer.
When will the result be visible?
Radiesse gives noticeable remodeling almost straight away, Collost and Sferogel work gradually. For all three the full effect comes in 2–3 months, once new collagen has been synthesized.
How many sessions do I need?
Usually a course of 2–3 sessions. The exact number depends on the product and the initial condition of your skin—the doctor will draw up the plan at the consultation.
How is this different from dermal fillers?
A filler replaces volume where it is missing—it works with shape. A collagen stimulator works with skin quality: it makes the skin denser and firmer but does not change your features. The two are often combined within one protocol.
What should I avoid afterwards?
For the first 24 hours: do not massage the area, no makeup, exercise, alcohol or swimming pool. For the first 3–7 days: no steam room or hot baths, no tanning bed, SPF 30–50 is mandatory, no peels or scrubs, and avoid pressure on the treated area.

Three products—three mechanisms
Collagen stimulators differ not in “strength” but in how exactly they trigger renewal. That determines both the speed of the effect and how the session feels
Calcium hydroxylapatite. The only one of the three that gives visible remodeling straight away—while also stimulating your own collagen
Native undenatured collagen. It works as a matrix: the skin completes its own framework along the given template
A complex of collagen, hyaluronic acid, amino acids and peptides. Gentle, gradual restoration of density
All products are registered in Russia. Which one suits you is determined by the doctor at the consultation—based on the condition of your skin, the area and your goal
The result does not come straight away
This is the key difference from fillers: a collagen stimulator does not fill volume, it triggers the production of your own collagen. So the effect builds—and it lasts longer
Almost nothing on the outside
Radiesse gives visible remodeling straight away. The collagen-based products work more quietly: the process is going on inside
The work goes on inside
Mild swelling is possible. Collagen synthesis has already started, but the eye cannot see it yet
Denser skin, a sharper contour
The full effect has unfolded. This is the point at which the result is assessed
The result holds
The doctor will set the maintenance plan based on how you respond
