Hybrid Filler (PLLA + HA)
Collagen stimulation meets instant volume
Our advanced hybrid filler combines two powerful ingredients – Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) and Hyaluronic Acid (HA) – to deliver both immediate rejuvenation and long-term collagen stimulation. This treatment is ideal for patients who want visible lift, hydration, and a progressive skin-firming effect.
What is Hybrid Filler?
Hybrid filler is the latest generation of injectable rejuvenation. It blends HA, known for its hydrating and plumping effects, with PLLA, a bio-stimulatory compound that encourages your skin to produce its own collagen over time.
Unlike traditional fillers that focus purely on volume, hybrid fillers work on multiple levels – giving you a more natural, longer-lasting result.
How it works
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA) provides instant hydration and structure
- PLLA stimulates collagen production deep within the skin
- The result: a gradual improvement in firmness, elasticity, and glow over several weeks
This dual-action approach means your skin not only looks better immediately, but also continues to improve long after treatment.
Why choose hybrid filler over PLLA alone (e.g., Sculptra)?
While PLLA-based injectables like Sculptra are highly effective for collagen stimulation, they don't provide immediate results. In fact, several sessions are often needed before any visible improvement appears.
Hybrid filler solves this limitation by incorporating Hyaluronic Acid, which gives your skin a noticeable boost in volume and hydration straight away, while the PLLA works in the background to gradually firm and lift the skin over time.
In addition, the HA component helps reduce the risk of nodules, a rare but known side effect associated with PLLA-only treatments. The smooth, hydrating base of HA improves the product's distribution and integration in the skin, making it safer and more predictable.
This makes hybrid fillers ideal for those who want the best of both worlds:
- Immediate enhancement
- Gradual, long-term improvement
- Fewer treatment sessions needed
- Lower risk of delayed side effects like nodules
