Additional Information – StiCol Volume
Product Overview
StiCol Volume is an innovative regenerative dermal filler formulated with Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance known for stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that simply add volume, StiCol Volume works from within, gradually restoring facial structure, firmness, and elasticity. The result is a natural-looking, lifted, and rejuvenated appearance that develops progressively over time.

Mechanism of Action
StiCol Volume works through collagen biostimulation. After injection, the PLLA microspheres gradually break down and trigger fibroblast activity, leading to new collagen formation in the deep dermal layers. This process rebuilds the skin’s support structure, improves firmness, and restores youthful contours naturally over time.
