Collagen Injections in Tunbridge Wells

Collagen is essential for maintaining firm, youthful and resilient skin. As natural collagen production declines with age, skin may lose elasticity, volume and smoothness.

At our Tunbridge Wells clinic, we offer advanced collagen injections, collagen induction therapy and collagen stimulating treatments designed to improve skin elasticity and support long-term rejuvenation.

What Are Collagen Injections?

One of the innovative methods we occasionally use in clinic is Karisma Collagen Injections, a collagen biostimulator designed to support natural skin regeneration using hyaluronic acid and recombinant type I collagen.
One of the formulations we offer is Karisma, a non-crosslinked collagen injectable made with recombinant type I collagen, hyaluronic acid, and carboxymethyl cellulose. It is particularly suited to patients who want visible rejuvenation with minimal volume change.

Rather than creating a heavy filler effect, this treatment focuses on improving hydration, firmness, and subtle lift while maintaining natural facial balance.

Unlike traditional dermal fillers, collagen injections are designed to support the long-term restoration of the skin’s natural support structure. They work by stimulating fibroblasts and encouraging the skin’s own regenerative response, helping to improve quality, elasticity, and firmness over time.

Benefits

What Problems Does the Service Solve?

Our collagen anti-ageing treatments are ideal for those experiencing:
Fine lines and dynamic wrinkles
Loss of firmness or sagging
Uneven skin tone or rough texture
Post-acne scars or enlarged pores
Dehydrated, tired-looking skin
It’s also an excellent solution for those looking to delay the need for more invasive procedures. Our clients report visibly smoother, plumper, and more resilient skin — with results that evolve and improve over time.
Collagen treatments may be suitable for individuals experiencing reduced skin elasticity, early signs of ageing, mild volume loss or skin laxity.
Rather than focusing solely on filling lines, collagen rejuvenation treatments aim to improve overall skin quality, firmness and structural support.

How It Works

How Collagen Injections Work

Collagen injections work by delivering a bioactive formulation into the skin to support tissue repair and stimulate new collagen production. This helps reinforce the skin’s structural integrity while improving hydration and resilience.

The treatment is ideal for patients who want visible yet natural-looking improvement in skin quality without significantly changing facial contours. It can be especially helpful where the skin has started to look thinner, less elastic, or less supported.

These treatments are often chosen by patients in their late 30s to 60s who want to address early signs of ageing, mild volume loss, or reduced skin firmness in a subtle and progressive way.

Our approach to collagen rejuvenation is grounded in skin biology. When collagen stimulating treatments like biostimulator injections are introduced into the dermis, they activate fibroblasts — the cells responsible for producing new collagen and elastin.

This process of neocollagenesis continues over several weeks following the treatment, delivering gradual, natural improvements to skin density, tone, and elasticity. Some collagen therapies use polynucleotides, while others combine collagen with hyaluronic acid for added hydration.

Karisma collagen injections stimulate natural collagen production and improve skin structure. When combined with treatments like Mesotherapy and PRP (Twilight Therapy), they work synergistically to enhance skin rejuvenation by improving absorption and boosting overall results.

Treatment Process

Getting Ready for Treatment

Avoid anti-inflammatory medications 24 hours prior
Avoid active skin treatments (such as chemical peels, laser, or microneedling) for at least 1 week before your Karisma treatment.
Let us know if you have any active skin infections, cold sores, or are feeling unwell—we may need to reschedule your session.
If you’re prone to cold sores, consider taking a preventive antiviral as advised by your practitioner.
Discontinue retinol or retinoid-based products at least 3–5 days before treatment, as they may cause skin irritation or sensitivity.
Stay well-hydrated in the days before your visit
Arrive makeup-free on the treatment day
Inform your practitioner of any medications or supplements
Plan to avoid intense heat or exercise right after treatment

Post-Treatment Care

Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 6 hours after treatment. After that, you may gently cleanse the skin.
Do not apply makeup for the first 12–24 hours to prevent irritation or infection.
Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, steam rooms, hot baths, and excessive heat for 24–48 hours, as these can increase swelling or bruising.
Refrain from consuming alcohol for 24 hours after treatment, as it can worsen swelling or bruising.
Do not use retinol, AHA/BHA acids, or exfoliating products for 5–7 days post-treatment, as the skin may be more sensitive.
Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 1 week. Always use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher if you’re going outdoors.
You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising, which is normal and typically resolves within a few days.
Cold compresses may be applied to reduce swelling, if needed.
Use only gentle skincare for 3 days
Contact the clinic with any prolonged redness or discomfort

Who Are Collagen Injections Best For?

Collagen injections are best suited to patients who want skin rejuvenation rather than dramatic volumising. They are often appropriate for those noticing:

mild skin laxity
loss of firmness
early volume depletion
dehydration in the skin
changes in texture and elasticity

Whether you are looking to address mild volume loss or simply want a more regenerative, non-surgical treatment approach, collagen injections can offer a refined and natural-looking option.

Frequently Asked Questions About Collagen Treatments

How do collagen injections work?

Collagen injections stimulate the body’s natural collagen production rather than simply adding volume. Over time, this improves skin firmness, elasticity and overall texture.

What is collagen induction therapy?

Collagen induction therapy activates controlled skin regeneration, encouraging new collagen formation within the dermis and supporting long-term skin rejuvenation.

Are collagen stimulating treatments better than dermal fillers?

Collagen stimulating treatments focus on improving skin quality and structural strength, whereas dermal fillers primarily restore lost volume. The most suitable option depends on your aesthetic goals.

Is collagen treatment effective for anti-ageing?

Yes. Collagen anti-ageing treatments help improve skin elasticity, reduce fine lines and enhance firmness by supporting natural collagen production.

How long do collagen rejuvenation results last?

Results develop gradually and may last longer than traditional fillers, as the treatment stimulates natural collagen renewal. Maintenance sessions may be recommended depending on individual response.
