Uniquely You
Biostimulators at Elixir Aesthetics in Tampa, FL.
Biostimulators are excellent options for clients who are invested in their long-term aesthetic goals. These long-lasting modalities stimulate the body to produce more collagen and elastin in the skin slowly over time leading to a naturally smoother, volumized, and lifted appearance… a more youthful version of your OWN face or body. At Elixir Aesthetics, we offer two Biostimulators: Sculptra and Radiesse. Schedule your Tampa Biostimulator consultation and experience naturally glowing skin for yourself.
Science Like Magic
What are Biostimulators?
Biostimulators are injected deep below the skin to encourage long-lasting collagen and elastin production from the foundational layers. This sudden stimulation and collagen output leads to the gradual tightening, smoothing, and volumization of the face and body which can last for years to come.
At Elixir Aesthetics, we offer Sculptra and Radiesse. Both have the capacity to promote the production of healthy, new collagen in the skin. Depending on your skin condition and treatment area, your provider will curate a custom elixir to achieve your goals. Both modalities require a series of treatments and periodic maintenance sessions to achieve long-lasting results.
A Foundation that Lasts
What can Biostimulators do?
Biostimulators provide your body with the stimulation it needs to keep your skin vibrant and healthy.
Typically, biostimulators are employed for global volume restoration, but can also be tailored for other specific treatments. Because they work slowly over time and produce a subtle long-term improvement, they are ideal for clients who desire a very natural approach to the aging process. Treatments can be performed on both the face and body. Biostimulators are commonly used in facial areas such as temples, cheeks, and jawline. Biostimulators can also be used in a variety of body areas such as chest, abdomen, arms, buttocks, and upper knees to provide subtle volume and improve texture and skin laxity.

Simple and Rewarding
Biostimulator Preparation and Procedure
Please arrive at your treatment without makeup. A topical numbing ointment may be applied prior to treatment to reduce the minor discomfort. After the treatment area is cleaned, your provider will meticulously administer the product to the treatment areas with either a thin needle or micro-cannula and the area is massaged.

Worth The Wait
Biostimulator Recovery, Results, and Aftercare
Your provider will educate you on how to care for the area post-treatment. In order to disperse the product effectively, you will be instructed to massage the treatment area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days. Your first massage will be performed in-office by our trained professionals.
Immediately after your injections, you will see transient volumization of the area. Depending on which Biostimulator Tampa patients use, it make take several days to weeks for their body to resorb the liquid that is mixed with the biostimulator and return to baseline. Several weeks later, once your body has had time to respond to the collagen production signal, the treated areas will show signs of re-volumization. Makeup can be applied within several hours and most clients feel comfortable resuming social activities that day. Avoid strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours. Although recovery is typically rapid, you may experience bruising, swelling, and minor discomfort after the procedure.
Maintaining your Biostimulator results
The saying is true… good things take time. Biostimulator treatments take four to 13 weeks for full effect to gradually develop. Typically two to three sessions are required for optimal improvement. Depending on your treatment area, age, and variety of lifestyle factors, results can last several years. Yearly maintenance treatments with less product are recommended to continue to stimulate collagen as the natural aging process takes place.
BiostimulatorsFrequently Asked Questions

If you will be better served via another procedure, we are here to guide you to what will give you optimal results.
