A Natural Alternative to Fillers and neuromodulators in Montreal
If you’ve been researching non-surgical skin rejuvenation and want a natural, long-lasting solution, biostimulants may be exactly what you’re looking for. At Dermagiz in Montreal, we specialize in advanced, physician-led treatments that support your skin’s ability to regenerate itself from within.
In this article, we’ll explain what biostimulants are, how they differ from dermal fillers, and why more and more patients are choosing options like Poly L lactic acidand calcium hydroxyapatite to restore volume, firmness, and a healthy glow—gradually and naturally.
What Are Biostimulants?
Biostimulants are injectable treatments that stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that simply “fill” areas of lost volume, biostimulants encourage your skin to rebuild its own structural support over time.
At Dermagiz, we offer two Health Canada–approved biostimulants:
- Poly L lactic acid (poly-L-lactic acid)
- Radiesse® (calcium hydroxylapatite)
Both are safe, effective, and ideal for long-term rejuvenation. The results appear gradually over several weeks and look incredibly natural.
Why Choose Biostimulants at Dermagiz?
Dr. Juan Gomez-Izquierdo brings a medical approach to every aesthetic decision. As a licensed physician trained in facial anatomy and dermatologic care, he tailors each treatment to the patient’s unique skin condition, age, and aesthetic goals.
At Dermagiz, you can expect:
- Doctor-performed injections with clinical precision
- Gradual, collagen-boosting results
- No overfilled or unnatural appearance
- A full consultation to determine whether Poly L lactic acid or Radiesse® is right for you
What Areas Can Biostimulants Treat?
Biostimulants are especially effective in areas where skin volume has diminished due to aging:
- Cheeks and temples
- Jawline and chin
- Marionette lines
- Décolleté (chest area)
- Hands
They are not recommended for lips or very superficial areas but are ideal for deep dermal support and improving overall skin texture.
What to Expect from a Biostimulant Appointment at Dermagiz
Your visit begins with a comprehensive assessment. Dr. Juan will evaluate your facial structure, skin laxity, and collagen levels. If biostimulants are suitable for you, the treatment is quick—typically 20 to 30 minutes.
There is no downtime. You can resume normal activities right away, with just a few simple aftercare instructions (like massaging the area gently for a few days).
How Long Do Biostimulants Last?
One of the greatest advantages of biostimulants is their longevity. Results build gradually over 6 to 12 weeks and may last up to two years, depending on your skin condition and lifestyle.
Most patients need two to three sessions spaced a few weeks apart, followed by yearly maintenance.
Are Biostimulants Right for You?
If you’re in your 30s to 60s and looking for a non-surgical way to revitalize your skin, biostimulants could be an excellent fit. They’re ideal for patients who:
- Prefer natural, gradual changes
- Want to improve skin firmness, elasticity, and glow
- Have mild to moderate volume loss
- Are not interested in traditional dermal fillers
