How PLLA Works

PLLA particles act as tiny collagen "activators." Once injected, they signal your skin to create new collagen fibers, improving volume loss, texture, and elasticity. Results build slowly over 3–6 months and can last up to two years as your own collagen matures. This makes PLLA one of the most effective tools in regenerative dermatology.

Where PLLA Is Placed

PLLA is injected through a series of carefully mapped points across key facial and neck areas:

• Cheeks: Restores natural contour and treats mid-face volume loss.
• Temples: Rebuilds support in an area that often hollows with age.
• Lower face: Softens smile lines, smooths marionette lines, and improves jawline structure.
• Pre-auricular (in front of the ear) area: Helps lift the lower face by reinforcing tissue support.
• Chin: Enhances firmness and smooths textural changes.
• Neck: Micro-injections strengthen thin, crepey skin and improve horizontal lines.

Rather than filling specific lines, PLLA treats the entire structural framework, making the skin tighter, thicker, and more resilient.

Treatment Plan

Most patients need 2–3 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart to stimulate an optimal collagen response. Maintenance is typically once yearly. Because PLLA is a global treatment, it is often used on the whole face and neck during the same visit for balanced, natural-looking results.

How It Supports Long-Term Skin Health

By restoring collagen—your skin's main support protein—PLLA improves firmness, smooths contours, and enhances texture from within. Over time, patients notice healthier, stronger, and more youthful skin that continues to improve months after each session.

PLLA injection therapy is one of the most effective ways to treat the face and neck comprehensively while investing in long-term Skin Health.
