Rethinking biostimulators in aesthetics

Many of today’s aesthetic consumers are embracing a growing awareness of the importance of feeling good from within. Rather than striving to look as young as possible, they are drawn to innovative aesthetic treatments that enhance natural features and promote a healthy, refreshed appearance.¹

 Biohacking—the art of fine-tuning your own biology—has even become a buzzword. With regenerative biomaterials, clinics can meet these demands and attract new, high-value target groups.

The next evolution in aesthetic medicine

The evolving consumer demands have led to a new branch of aesthetic medicine—regenerative aesthetics. Whereas regenerative medicine seeks to replace tissue that has been lost or damaged due to disease or trauma, the goal of regenerative aesthetic treatments is to regenerate soft tissue that has been lost or damaged due to the aging process.²

Regenerative aesthetics has the potential to attract a new set of patients, people interested in biohacking and longevity. They belong to a segment of consumers who would perhaps not consider a dermal filler procedure but desire to achieve lasting skin health via innovative and biocompatible technologies.

Skin care with regenerative biomaterials

Thanks to recent scientific advances, biomaterials have evolved from providing inert support (such as titanium or ceramic materials) to bioactive materials that are able to trigger or promote the regenerative potential of tissues.³ This makes them very interesting to use in skin care applications.

Regenerative treatments, whether they are cell based (stem cells), based on bio cues (growth factors), or based on biomaterials, are required to meet certain standards: They must be able to promote tissue regeneration in the body and skin without causing damage to the donor site, risk prosthetic rejection, or lead to long-term infection.⁴

Regenerative treatments must also be meaningful for the aesthetic patient and lead to visible and natural-looking skin rejuvenation, with minimal or no downtime, and little to no long-term side-effects.

Why PLLA is a good choice for regenerative aesthetics

Poly-L-lactic acid, PLLA, is a polymer consisting of repeating units of L-lactic acid, a naturally occurring molecule in the body and skin. L-lactic acid plays a protective role in maintaining skin health. In recent years, research has demonstrated that L-lactic acid works as a physical physical signaling molecule that protects skin cells from dysfunction and premature aging.⁵

PLLA is biodegradable, breaking down into harmless L-lactic acid, making it suitable for aesthetic products.⁶

The design of the PLLA material is essential, and this is where innovation comes into the picture. Research has established that round and smooth microspheres of PLLA provide the best results in terms of tissue integration and in minimizing inflammatory response.^7-10 Learn more here why particle properties are key in biostimulator injections.
