Treatments for Collagen Stimulation: How IPL, Aerolase, and Plasmage Work

April 17, 2025

Achieving youthful and healthy skin is a goal for many, and one of the key factors in maintaining a vibrant complexion is collagen production. As we age, our body's natural collagen production decreases, leading to a loss of skin firmness and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, with the advancement of medical aesthetics, various laser treatments have emerged as effective solutions for stimulating collagen production. At Shmily Aesthetics in Seattle, we offer innovative treatments like IPL, Aerolase, and Plasmage to help you achieve smoother, firmer skin.


Understanding the Importance of Collagen


Collagen is a protein that provides structure and elasticity to the skin. It's the substance that keeps your skin plump and firm. Unfortunately, factors such as aging, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices can lead to the breakdown of collagen, affecting the skin's texture and overall appearance.


How Laser Treatments Stimulate Collagen Production


Laser treatments have become popular non-invasive options for boosting collagen production. They work by targeting the deeper layers of the skin, encouraging the body's natural healing processes and collagen production. Let's explore how IPL, Aerolase, and Plasmage work to enhance skin health and appearance.


IPL and Collagen Production


Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a versatile treatment that addresses a variety of skin concerns, including collagen stimulation. IPL uses broad-spectrum light to target the chromophores in the skin. This light energy is converted into heat, stimulating collagen production and improving overall skin texture. The treatment helps reduce signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles while also addressing issues like hyperpigmentation and sun damage.


Shmily Aesthetics utilizes state-of-the-art IPL technology that ensures safe and effective treatment tailored to your specific needs. With each session, you should notice improvements in your skin's firmness and appearance, making IPL an excellent choice for those seeking a non-invasive path to youthful skin.


Aerolase for Skin Rejuvenation


Aerolase, particularly the Neo Elite laser, is renowned for its efficacy in promoting skin wellness. The unique 650-microsecond technology of Aerolase delivers energy to both the hemoglobin and melanin in the skin, creating a focused response that results in increased collagen production. This process minimizes fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.


What sets Aerolase apart is its ability to provide comprehensive results safely and comfortably for all skin types, including darker tones. Clients at Shmily Aesthetics benefit from Aerolase's precision and comfort, experiencing clearer, healthier skin without downtime.


Plasmage and Collagen Boosting


Plasmage is a cutting-edge treatment that uses plasma energy to create a controlled point of heat on the skin. This heat triggers the skin's natural healing process, leading to increased collagen production and skin tightening.


The precision of Plasmage makes it perfect for targeting specific areas of concern, such as fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes or mouth. Unlike other treatments, Plasmage effectively stimulates collagen without affecting the surrounding skin, leading to improved skin texture and reduced signs of aging.


Complementary Treatments: Biostimulators


Alongside laser treatments, biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse provide an effective complementary option for collagen stimulation. These treatments work by promoting the body's own collagen production over time, improving skin texture and firmness.


At Shmily Aesthetics, our biostimulators are expertly applied to enhance skin tone and elasticity, offering long-lasting results that continue to improve with regular sessions. Combining biostimulators with laser treatments can provide a holistic approach to combat signs of aging.


Choosing the Right Treatment for You


When it comes to choosing the best treatment for collagen stimulation, it's essential to consider factors like your skin type, concerns, and desired outcomes. Our experienced team at Shmily Aesthetics offers personalized consultations to determine the most suitable treatment plan for your needs. Whether you opt for IPL, Aerolase, or Plasmage, you're in safe hands with our skilled professionals who are dedicated to providing exceptional care.
