Bio Lifting

Firmness that builds gradually, as your own collagen responds, rather than an immediate change in shape.

30 min · Course of sessions

What it is

An injectable treatment using biostimulatory ingredients — such as polynucleotides, amino acids or vitamin complexes — to encourage your own collagen and elastin production, gradually improving skin firmness and tone rather than adding volume.

Who it's for

Guests with early skin laxity or a loss of overall firmness who prefer a gradual, collagen-led improvement over an immediate volumising effect. Often chosen as a complement to structural filler rather than a replacement for it.

What happens at your appointment

A short assessment of skin firmness and elasticity, then a series of small injections across the treatment area — commonly the full face or neck. Sessions run about 30 minutes.

Results & recovery

Because the effect relies on stimulating your own collagen, results build gradually over several weeks per session rather than appearing immediately. A course of sessions is typical for a noticeable change.

Questions

Bio Lifting — frequently asked

Twenty answers written by our physicians.

How is Bio Lifting different from filler?
Filler adds volume directly. Bio Lifting stimulates your own collagen and elastin to gradually firm the skin, so the change builds over weeks rather than appearing immediately.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream is available, and most guests find the small injections comparable to a skin booster session — mild discomfort rather than significant pain.
How many sessions will I need?
A course of 3–4 sessions, spaced two to four weeks apart, is typical to see a meaningful firming effect.
How soon will I see results?
Because it relies on stimulating your own collagen, initial changes are subtle for the first few weeks, with more noticeable firming after two to three sessions.
How long does the appointment take?
Around 30 minutes including a brief assessment and the injections themselves.
How long do results last?
The firming effect typically lasts several months after a completed course, with maintenance sessions recommended every few months to sustain it.
Is it suitable for early signs of laxity?
Yes — it's often chosen specifically for early, mild laxity where a gradual, natural-building approach is preferred over more immediate treatments.
Can it be combined with filler?
Yes — Bio Lifting is frequently used alongside structural filler, addressing skin quality and firmness while the filler addresses shape and volume.
What is the downtime?
Minimal. Small bumps at injection points usually settle within a day, and most guests return to normal activities immediately.
Will I bruise?
Small bruises are possible given the number of injection points, though generally mild and easily covered with makeup.
Is it suitable for the neck?
Yes, the neck is a common treatment area, particularly for guests noticing early looseness that structural filler wouldn't suit.
What are the risks?
Bruising, swelling and mild tenderness at injection points are the most common. Serious complications are rare and are covered in the consent you review at consultation.
Is it suitable for men?
Yes — skin laxity affects all genders and the treatment protocol doesn't differ based on gender.
Can it be done alongside Botox?
Yes, the two are often planned together as part of a broader facial refresh, addressing both movement lines and skin firmness.
How is it different from Profhilo?
Both are biostimulatory approaches to skin quality, though the specific ingredients and injection protocol differ — we'll recommend whichever suits your skin and goals better at consultation.
Who performs the treatment?
Only physicians and specialist nurses trained in biostimulatory injection techniques, following the same medical protocol as every treatment at this clinic.
What should I avoid beforehand?
Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medication for 24–48 hours where possible, to limit bruising.
Can it help with crepey skin texture?
Yes, improved collagen production is one of the more effective non-surgical approaches to crepey texture, alongside good sun protection and skincare.
Is it painful compared to filler?
Generally comparable to or slightly milder than structural filler, since the product itself is designed to spread and integrate rather than hold a fixed shape.
How soon can I have another session?
Sessions within a course are typically spaced two to four weeks apart to allow each treatment to take effect before the next.
