JULÄINE
JULÄINE™
Collagen Biostimulator in London
JULÄINE™ is an advanced collagen-stimulating injectable (biostimulator) that rejuvenates the skin from within by encouraging the body to rebuild its own collagen and elastin. Unlike dermal fillers, which create instant volume, JULÄINE™ works gradually and naturally to restore the skin’s structure, firmness, and radiance.
For patients seeking subtle, long-lasting improvement without looking “done,” JULÄINE™ represents a new standard in regenerative aesthetics. By enhancing skin quality over time, it leaves you looking fresher, healthier, and more confident.
At Dr Paul Elgey Aesthetics in London, we specialise in bespoke, natural results. JULÄINE™ fits seamlessly into this philosophy, helping patients achieve a rejuvenated appearance that feels authentic and balanced.
Benefits of JULÄINE™
Collagen regeneration – restores the skin’s own support structure.
Natural results – no sudden changes, just gradual rejuvenation.
Improved skin quality – enhanced firmness, density, texture, and radiance.
Long-lasting effects – results can last 12–24 months or more.
Low maintenance – fewer top-ups compared to some fillers or skin boosters.
Versatile use – effective for midface, jawline, chin, perioral region, neck, décolletage, and hands.
Safer than older PLLA injectables – refined microsphere technology reduces the risk of nodules and means massage is no longer required after treatment.
What Areas Can JULÄINE™ Treat?
JULÄINE™ is suitable for patients who want to improve:
Midface / cheeks – restoring contour and firmness.
Jawline – sharpening definition and structure.
Chin – improving projection and balance.
Lower face – softening marionette lines and early jowling.
Neck & décolletage – improving fine lines and crepey texture.
Hands – restoring youthful density.
It is not used for lip augmentation but complements other treatments beautifully when improving the overall harmony of the face.
Treatment Process & What to Expect
At Dr Paul Elgey Aesthetics, your JULÄINE™ journey is personalised to your goals.
1. Consultation
We begin with a detailed facial analysis, reviewing your skin health, history, and treatment goals. Every plan is bespoke, ensuring results that enhance your natural features.
2. Treatment
The procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes. After cleansing and applying anaesthetic if needed, small amounts of JULÄINE™ are carefully injected into targeted areas.
3. Recovery
You may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising, which typically resolves within 1–3 days. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
4. Results
Unlike fillers, results are not instant. Improvements appear gradually over 2–3 months as new collagen forms, with full results developing after completing the treatment course.
5. Longevity
Effects typically last 12–24 months, with some patients enjoying benefits for up to 3 years. Maintenance sessions can extend results.
JULÄINE™ vs Other Treatments
JULÄINE™ vs Dermal Fillers
Fillers provide instant volume and lifting.
JULÄINE™ improves underlying skin quality and firmness over time.
Many patients combine both: fillers for structure, JULÄINE™ for regeneration.
JULÄINE™ vs Sculptra (older PLLA)
JULÄINE™ uses more uniform microspheres, reducing inflammation and the risk of nodules.
No need for post-treatment massage (required with Sculptra).
Results are smoother and more predictable.
JULÄINE™ vs Skin Boosters & Polynucleotides
Skin boosters improve hydration and glow.
Polynucleotides repair and rejuvenate at a cellular level.
JULÄINE™ works deeper, regenerating collagen networks for structural integrity.
A comprehensive anti-ageing plan may include a combination of these treatments, tailored to your unique needs.
Safety & Risks
JULÄINE™ has an excellent safety profile when performed by an experienced medical professional.
Common side effects
Mild redness
Swelling

How Does JULÄINE™ Work?
JULÄINE™ is powered by poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) microspheres, a clinically proven material used safely in medicine for decades. Its formulation is designed to trigger the skin’s natural healing and regenerative pathways, resulting in the production of new collagen fibres.
Here’s the process:
Injection: Tiny, uniform PLLA microspheres are injected into targeted areas of the skin using a cannula.
Stimulation: Fibroblasts (skin cells responsible for collagen production) are activated, producing new type I and type III collagen.
Regeneration: Over weeks and months, collagen networks rebuild skin thickness, resilience, and elasticity.
Absorption: The PLLA is gradually broken down and absorbed by the body, leaving only your natural collagen behind.
This slow and steady process avoids the “sudden change” that some patients worry about with dermal fillers. Instead, improvements unfold gradually, making JULÄINE™ ideal for patients who want natural-looking anti-ageing results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes JULÄINE™ different from dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers provide instant volume. JULÄINE™ stimulates your skin’s own collagen, gradually improving firmness, density, and texture over time.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients need 2–3 sessions, spaced 3–6 weeks apart, for best results.
When will I see results?
Subtle improvements may be noticed within weeks, but the most significant changes develop after 2–3 months.
How long do results last?
On average 12–24 months, with many patients reporting results lasting up to 3 years.
Is the treatment painful?
The results of polynucleotide treatments can last up to 6-12 months and are influenced by factors such as the individual’s skin type, age, and lifestyle. To maintain optimal results, regular treatment sessions as advised during your consultation at our London, Dublin, and Dubai clinics are recommended.
What’s the downtime?
Most patients resume daily activities immediately. Temporary swelling or bruising may last a few days.
Is JULÄINE™ safe?
Yes, when administered by a qualified medical professional. It has a strong safety record and is CE-marked in Europe.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Many patients benefit from combining JULÄINE™ with fillers, skin boosters, or polynucleotides for a layered approach to rejuvenation.
Who should avoid Juläine?
Those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or with certain medical conditions may not be suitable. This will be fully discussed in consultation.
