Collagen Boosting in Your 30s: Why Now Is the Time to Start Biostimulators

Whether we like it or not, by the time we hit our 30s and 40s, it's likely that we’ve started to notice some of the visible signs of aging. Although it occurs at different ages and stages for everyone, you may start to notice changes in facial volume, mild skin laxity, and even slight hollowing, depending on factors such as changes in body fat. During this stage in our lives, our anti-aging efforts can be crucially supported by services known for boosting collagen production. These services can help preserve a youthful appearance and delay additional signs of aging. Today, we’ll look at biostimulator services like Sculptra and Radiesse to learn more about how they can help build collagen in the skin to prevent pronounced loss in the future. 

The Timeline Behind Collagen Decline

Collagen is one of the building blocks for firm, youthful skin that maintains a smooth texture and good elasticity. While collagen production actually begins to drop in our 20s, most of us don’t notice it until the mid to late 30s. By then, without prevention, things like visible volume loss, fine lines, and laxity may start to appear. This is when it may be a good idea to start considering biostimulators like Sculptra or Radiesse. These injectable fillers are designed to stimulate your skin’s own collagen-building process. With the right use, they can help you rebuild the youthful structure and appearance of your skin while also helping to build new collagen that will help you maintain your look for the long term. Both Sculptra and Radiesse provide compounding benefits over time, making maintenance easier and less frequent. 

Younger Clients and Preventative Treatments

While it’s so common online to see advice that encourages people to start getting preventative treatments in their 20s, injector and co-owner of Coco Med Spa, Amy Nguyen, is known for turning people away from treatments they don’t need. While there are other ways to care for your skin and prevent premature aging in your 20s, the need for biostimulators is incredibly unlikely. Although there will always be treatments trending online, it’s important to get educated about age-appropriate treatments by a licensed and experienced professional. Without clear evidence of volume loss, laxity, or hollowing, treatments like Sculptra and Radiesse should be saved for the late 30s and 40s.

Investing in treatments for collagen stimulation as needed in the late 30s and 40s is an unbeatably effective way to reduce the effects and appearance of the aging process.
