Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid / Sculptra / Ellansé
Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid
While muscle-relaxing medication is used to treat expression lines, hyaluronic acid is suitable for filling skin lines and even larger tissue defects. By injecting hyaluronic acid into the wrinkles, it raises the skin level and aligns it with the surrounding tissue. The effect lasts for approx. 6-12 months. Hyaluronic acid is a moisture-binding sugar compound and is also used in cosmetics as an ingredient in skin creams. It occurs naturally in the body, ensures elastic skin and stimulates collagen formation. Hyaluronic acid is found 35% in tendons and ligaments, 56% in the skin and around 9% in other regions such as synovial fluid and lymphatic fluid.

ELLANSÉ® - the first filler with a definable shelf life
ELLANSÉ® is a unique dermal filler that ushers in a new era of safe and innovative solutions for treatments to combat the signs of ageing skin. This biostimulator combines the benefits of immediate correction of wrinkles and volume loss with the stimulation of the body’s own collagen, leading to beautiful, fresh and longer-lasting results.
Safe ingredients
ELLANSÉ® is a clinically proven filler consisting of smooth polycaprolactone (PCL) microparticles in an aqueous gel carrier of carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC). PCL is known as a soft polymer that is 100% bioresorbable and is used in numerous medical applications, such as degradable sutures in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
How does Ellansé® work?
ELLANSÉ® is a biostimulator with immediate results. It is injected subcutaneously in a minimally invasive procedure. Due to the optimal viscosity and elasticity of the gel carrier, facial wrinkles are corrected immediately after treatment. The smooth PCL (polycaprolactone) microspheres stimulate collagen neogenesis and replace the volume of the resorbed carrier. The results are soft and natural.
The Ellansé® quartet
You can choose the duration of correction that suits you best. You can choose from the four models in the ELLANSÉ® family, which differ only in the length of time they last
- ELLANSÉ® S up to 1 year
- ELLANSÉ® M up to 2 years
- ELLANSÉ® L up to 3 years
- ELLANSÉ® E up to 4 years
The treatment areas of Ellansé®
- Nasobial folds

Treatment with Ellansé®

Sculptra®
Many people are looking for treatments that will give them a youthful and fresh appearance. If you are one of these people, we can offer you a treatment that achieves natural and long-lasting results.
Why does the skin look older?
Part of the ageing process is a decrease in the collagen content in our skin. Collagen is a fibrous protein that gives the skin structure and support and helps to maintain its shape. A sufficient amount of collagen ensures a youthful-looking complexion. However, the age-related loss of collagen weakens the internal structure of our skin and makes it thinner.1,2 Ultimately, the loss of collagen leads to sagging, wrinkled skin and a decrease in skin quality.3
What can we do to combat the signs of skin ageing?
If you want to do something about the loss of collagen in your skin, there is an optimal treatment that will restore your skin’s elasticity and give you back your youthful appearance.
Sculptra® is an original biostimulator that works deep within the skin to activate natural collagen production. It is an injectable treatment that gradually restores and improves the structure of the skin with long-lasting results.4-7 In other words, we don’t give your skin collagen in this treatment, we just tell your body to do it.
Since Sculptra® stimulates the body’s own collagen production, the result looks natural and lasts up to at least 25 months.6-12 Good to know is that Sculptra® does not change the proportions of your face.
100 % of the material used with Sculptra® would recommend this treatment to others!10
Sculptra® is the only PLLA injection product approved by the FDA for aesthetic use14. FDA approval requires proof of safety and efficacy of the product formulation in clinical studies.
The treatment program
Sculptra® renews skin texture by improving the quality, volume and tone of the skin, restoring a more youthful appearance.6-13 A typical treatment program consists of two to three restorative treatments over the course of a few months. During this time, you will gradually notice visible improvements in the skin’s elasticity, with a youthful, fresh and natural-looking result that lasts.
