COLLAGEN STIMULATORS:
Sculptra
Newport Beach
Sculptra is an innovative cosmetic treatment available at E&G Aesthetic Institute that offers remarkable benefits for facial rejuvenation and enhancement. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works as a collagen stimulator via a series of treatments. It is comprised of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) – an absorbable, semi-permanent, injectable implant that can be used to gradually restore volume and stimulate collagen and elastin formation in the skin. This makes it an excellent choice for individuals seeking long-lasting results and a more youthful appearance without adding significant volume.
One of the key benefits of Sculptra injections is its ability to address volume loss and skin laxity, making it ideal for restoring facial contours and reducing the signs of aging. As a trusted Sculptra provider in Orange County, our clinic specializes in this advanced treatment, ensuring optimal results and patient satisfaction with minimal injection sites using our advanced cannula techniques.
Patients who choose Sculptra can enjoy a gradual improvement in their skin’s texture, elasticity, and overall appearance. Whether it’s filling in deep lines, fine lines and wrinkles or enhancing cheekbones and chin contours, Sculptra offers versatile solutions for facial enhancement. Our experienced aesthetic specialists use Sculptra to create natural-looking results tailored to each patient’s unique features and aesthetic goals.
For those interested in non-surgical butt lifts or chin augmentations, Sculptra is a great option. Our Sculptra treatments are designed to provide safe, effective, and long-lasting outcomes, giving patients the confidence to look and feel their best.
Radiesse
Newport Beach
Radiesse is a type of biostimulator filler that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the face. It is a dermal filler that adds volume and consists of small calcium hydroxylapatite spheres in a gel substance.
When administered beneath the skin, Radiesse instantly restores volume and begins to stimulate the production of the body’s own collagen to tighten and firm the skin. As time passes the gel breaks down naturally leaving behind the calcium hydroxylapatite spheres. These spheres encourage the body to produce collagen, which aids in maintaining skin volume, skin integrity and smoothness.
Radiesse is frequently used to treat “smile lines” aka nasolabial fold lines, “marionette” lines, midface and cheek volume loss and other facial creases. At E&G Aesthetic Institute, it is a beloved product that yields phenomenal results for rejuvenating the hands and buttock.
Radiesse is phenomenal in improving skin quality. On average, the results from treatment with Radiesse may last up to 2 years before a maintenance treatment is recommended.

EZ PRF GEL for Undereyes Newport Beach and Volume Restoration
Experience the rejuvenating power of PRF injections, harnessing your body’s natural healing abilities to revitalize your skin and unlock a radiant, youthful appearance.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) involve using a concentration of the patient’s blood that is rich in growth factors. The procedure involves drawing a tube of your blood and spinning it through a centrifuge in order to concentrate the platelets. The activated platelets release growth factors to stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells in the injected area.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Botox, Fillers and biostimulators?
While Botox, fillers, and biostimulator treatments are all cosmetic treatments that help restore a youthful appearance, they function in very different ways. Botox (neuromodulators) temporarily relax muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles that are caused by repeated facial expressions, making them ideal for treating forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, neck bands and lines that are present when you animate your face.
Dermal fillers like Restylane®, JUVÉDERM® and RHA add volume and contour to treatment areas impacted by age-related volume loss or deficits. This aids in plumping lips, contouring cheeks, balancing your side profile, and defining the jawline without affecting muscle movement.
Biostimulatory fillers such as Radiesse, Radiesse with PRP and Sculptra on the other hand, don’t just provide instant improvement to the treatment area. Their effects increase gradually over time by stimulating collagen production, resulting in gradual, long-lasting skin rejuvenation and improved texture and volume.
What are Collagen treatment for Face?
Collagen stimulating treatments such as SkinPen microneedling with or without PRP and PRF are amazing skin rejuvenating treatments that increase facial collagen and elastin through a series of controlled micro-injuries with small surgical grade needlles (SKINPEN).
SKINPEN is the only FDA approved microneedling device clinically studied and having demonstrated beneficial improvement in fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and skin texture. When coupled with Platelet Rich Plasma (release of growth factors) or Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix (SLOW release of growth factors), studies have shown skin cells demonstrate improved skin density, increased production of glycosaminoglycans within the connective tissue, improved skin integrity, and enhanced production of collagen levels and elastin.
What is a biostimulator?
A biostimulator is a type of collagen induction therapy that is injected into the skin or applied topically with the goal of boosting collagen production through your body’s natural inflammatory response. It is targeted at improving skin health on various skin types by improving skin texture through the production of fibroblasts that increase the deposit of collagen and elastin on the skin barrier.
These collagen boosting treatments can include injectables like Sculptra, Radiesse, Ariesence (Platelet derived growth factor – PDGF), PRP (platelet rich plasma), PRFM (platelet rich fibrin matrix), Umbilical Cord Allograft derived Exosomes, and more. When combined with a collagen enhancing treatment such as Skinpen Microneedling, laser treatments, or chemical peels (COSMELAN MD) the results are amplified and patients report notable improved skin quality and tone.
What is the best treatment to boost collagen in the face?
While there is no “one size fits all” treatment for collagen growth. Umbilical cord allograft derived exosomes and Wharton’s Jelly derived exosomes and stem cells have been anecdotally reported to provide superior results to current collagen regeneration treatments currently on the market. Also considered the best treatment to boost collagen in the face is the tried and tested injectable implant, Sculptra and Radiesse.
When combined with platelet derived growth factors including the popular, “salmon sperm dna facial” or Ariessence (pure PDGF), PRP/PRFM – facial collagen enhancing treatments appear promising in improving sun damage and improving the aftereffects of the aging process.
How long does a collagen treatment last?
Collagen production treatments vary in how long they last depending on the product being injected or topically applied. On average, patients may experience the collagen enhancing benefits for a period of +2 years with maintenance treatments recommended periodically.
Do collagen facial treatments work?
YES! Collagen facial treatments do, in fact, WORK. If coupled with a firming laser such as an Erbium laser treatment or traditional CO2 laser treatment, many patients note improved skin firmness and skin tightening.
How long do Radiesse injections last?
Radiesse injections last on average a period of +2 years. Many patients report it last years. Radiesse results typically last for 12 to 18 months, but with regular touch-up treatments, they can be extended for up to two years. The longevity of the results also depends on factors like skin health, diet, lifestyle, and the severity of the concerns being treated
What are Radiesse injections used for?
Radiesse injections are used to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, specifically nasolabial folds, and it is FDA approved to restore or correct signs of facial fat loss (lipoatrophy) in individuals with HIV. They also help to improve the appearance of the back of the hands and can be used for jawline contouring.
What lasts longer, Sculptra or Radiesse?
Both biotimulators last on average a period of 12 to 18 months with patients reporting up to +2 years. While these collagen enhancing fillers work differently, both stimulate collagen and elastin to the treatment areas.
Does Radiesse really build Collagen?
YES, Radiesse really does build collagen due to the calcium based nature of the filler inducing a collagen inducing immune response.
What is EZ PRF?
EZ PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a natural, injectable biostimulating filler that uses your own blood to rejuvenate and rejuvenate the skin. It involves processing blood to concentrate platelets and fibrin, which are then used to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and address volume loss
Does PRF EZ gel really work?
Yes, PRF EZ gel really works to improve skin quality to the areas where it is injected. It will not restore volume but does enhance the pigment concerns associated with undereyes.
