Polylactic acid

Stimulation of collagen production

Imagine less wrinkles, increased volume and restoration of skin firmness - all possible by polylactic acid. This procedure is ideal for those who desire long-term results and deep rejuvenation. Polylactic acid is an incredible anti-aging weapon. This biodegradable and non-toxic material is perfect for those who naturally desire a more youthful and radiant appearance. It is used to stimulate the production of collagen in the skin, which leads to the restoration of elasticity and a youthful appearance of the skin. It is a minimally invasive procedure that is performed using thin needles or cannulas. 

Polylactic acid stimulates the production of collagen, which is the basic building block of our skin. With age, collagen production decreases, leading to the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin. This procedure acts directly on the given problem and rejuvenates from the inside.

Results are not immediate but gradual. Within a few weeks after the procedure, your skin will naturally begin to regenerate and look younger, healthier and firmer. What's even better is that the results last for 2 years unlike fillers.​

At MP CLINIC we use JuveLook and Lenisna products. Although the uses of the products are different, the common factor is the content of polylactic acid (PDLLA) and non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid.

 
What is polylactic acid?

Polylactic acid is a component that is normally found in our body, specifically in muscle tissues. It is becoming a fast-growing trend in the cosmetics industry for its effects on skin rejuvenation and improving the overall appearance of the skin. It works on the principle of stimulating the production of collagen in the skin.

Areas

One of the main advantages of this procedure is its wide application. However, it is most often used on the face, neck, décolleté and hands, which are often exposed to the sun and show signs of aging. The application also includes other areas such as the inner arms, abdomen and thighs where it can help reduce sagging skin.

Benefits of the treatment
  • long-term stimulation of collagen production

  • the result will last up to 2 years

  • the skin is off, brightened, without wrinkles

  • significant reduction of pores

  • it is a biodegradable and non-toxic material

The treatment

After evaluating the condition of the skin, a decision is made on a specific product. After agreeing and clarifying any questions, the application site will be thoroughly cleaned so that there is no risk of infection and no remnants of make-up or other cosmetic products remain on the skin. Subsequently, the mixture of substances is injected into the skin using a cannula or needle. Juvelook is applied mainly to the skin with small needle punctures, while Lenisna is delivered to deeper tissues via a cannula. A local anesthetic may be used to minimize pain and discomfort during treatment.

After the treatment

The treatment is absolutely safe and minimally painful.

Depending on the type of skin and its response to the applied substance, slight swelling at the injection site, skin sensitivity, redness, itching, soreness or bruising may be observed. All these side effects are quite common and will disappear within a few days.

It is also advisable to limit sunbathing and direct exposure to the sun for at least one week or until the adverse effects have subsided. If this rule cannot be followed, it is advisable to cover the skin or use creams with a high SPF factor.

Contraindication

An absolute contraindication is a known allergy to polylactic acid or any of its components. Therapy should also not be performed in case of diabetes, blood clotting problems, systemic diseases such as lupus, pregnancy, breastfeeding and active infection in the treated area.​​​​​

Lenisna

 

Lenisna products differ in their specific composition, where they contain larger doses of polylactic acid (170 mg) and hyaluronic acid (30 mg). It is therefore mainly used to treat deeper subcutaneous areas, to achieve a lifting effect and to reduce deep wrinkles. In addition to the face, it can also be used to lift the buttocks, décolletage, tighten the skin on the abdomen and above the knees, reduce cellulite or correct sunken cheeks.

LENISNA particles provide even and natural volume and stimulate the production of own collagen in the subcutaneous tissue.
