ABOUT:
Ultracol 100 is an injectable treatment based on polydioxanone (PDO), a biodegradable polymer that has been used in medical applications, including absorbable sutures. The concept behind the treatment is different from simply placing a conventional volumising filler beneath the skin. Instead, PDO is used to stimulate a biological response within the treated tissue.
How Does It Work?
When PDO microparticles are introduced into the skin, they act as a temporary stimulus to the surrounding tissue. The body's response to the material can encourage collagen production and remodelling. As the PDO is gradually broken down, the newly formed collagen can contribute to improvements in the appearance of firmness and texture. This makes PDO biostimulation particularly relevant for individuals who are beginning to notice changes in skin quality but may not require significant volumisation.
What Can Ultracol 100 Help With?
Treatment may be considered for concerns including:
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Mild skin laxity

Uneven skin texture

Certain areas where skin quality and support have declined
Skin Quality Rather Than Immediate Volume
One of the key concepts behind PDO biostimulation with Ultracol 100 is gradual improvement. Rather than relying entirely on an immediate filling effect, the treatment works through a biological process in which collagen is gradually remodelled.
This means that the final appearance develops progressively and may continue to evolve following treatment.
