Injectable Collagen Stimulator @ $1,200 Nett
Ultracol is a skin booster composed of PDO (polydioxanone) particles that gradually break down in the body and may stimulate collagen production in the treated area. It is commonly used in aesthetic procedures to support improvements in skin texture, elasticity, and the appearance of wrinkles associated with ageing, and may also help address areas with reduced volume.
✓ Supports Collagen Production

✓ Improves Skin Firmness
May help address the appearance of fine lines and skin laxity.
✓ Enhances Skin Texture

Often referred to as liquid threads, Ultracol is a polydioxanone (PDO)–based injectable biostimulator that stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production. It is commonly used to restore volume, lift the skin, and improve overall texture on the face, neck, and selected areas of the body.
PDO was originally developed as a surgical suture material. Ultracol leverages this material and advanced technology to transform it into microscopic particles that can be injected to stimulate collagen regeneration.
Ultracol works by stimulating the skin’s natural regenerative processes. The treatment involves injecting polydioxanone (PDO) microparticles into targeted areas beneath the skin. Once delivered, these microparticles gradually dissolve and trigger the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin.
As collagen levels increase, the skin becomes firmer, more elastic, and better supported from within. This helps to restore subtle volume, smooth fine lines, and improve overall skin texture. Over time, the treated areas appear tighter, lifted, and more rejuvenated, with results that continue to improve as collagen regeneration progresses.
The treatment offers several key benefits that help enhance overall skin quality and appearance.
✅ Stimulates Natural Collagen Production
Activates the body’s natural collagen regeneration process, improving skin firmness, elasticity, and structural support over time.
✅ Softens Wrinkles & Fine Lines
Helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles, crow’s feet, and expression lines, creating a smoother and more youthful-looking complexion.
✅ Firms & Lifts Sagging Skin
Provides a subtle lifting and tightening effect on areas such as the face, jawline, neck, and décolletage without the need for invasive procedures.
✅ Enhances Skin Tone & Texture
Gradually improves skin texture while boosting radiance and hydration for a healthier, more refreshed appearance.
Ultracol is suitable for individuals looking to address early to moderate signs of ageing, including fine lines, wrinkles, and mild volume loss, without undergoing surgical procedures. It is particularly ideal for those who prefer treatments with minimal downtime and a quicker recovery period, allowing them to return to work and daily activities with little disruption.
The treatment is also a popular option for individuals who are not ready for, or may not require, more invasive procedures such as surgical facelifts or extensive contouring treatments. Ultracol appeals to a broad age group — from younger adults who wish to maintain skin firmness and prevent early ageing, to more mature individuals seeking to restore skin structure.
The price of the Ultracol treatment depends on several factors, such as the number of sessions required and your skin conditions.
At V Medical and Aesthetics Laser Clinic, Ultracol 100 treatment costs $1,200 per treatment.
Most patients have reported the treatment to be tolerable, with a mild stinging sensation. Nonetheless, numbing cream will be applied before your procedure to minimise discomfort.
Mild redness or swelling at injection sites may occur but usually resolve quickly. All potential side effects will be reviewed with you before treatment.
For the best results, we recommend undergoing the treatment at least 4 times with intervals of 2 – 3 weeks.
Results can be maintained through a balanced lifestyle, including proper skincare and periodic treatments every 6 to 12 months, depending on your skin condition.
Given the procedure is generally safe and requires little to no downtime, the after-care is generally a breeze.
However, do try to avoid these to avoid skin irritation.
