PDLLA skin booster · Singapore

PDLLA skin booster for collagen, volume and hydration.

Poly-D,L-lactic acid combined with hyaluronic acid: it hydrates and plumps the skin straight away, then stimulates collagen so texture and firmness keep improving.

What is a PDLLA skin booster?

Hydration now, collagen over time.

A PDLLA skin booster is an injectable that combines PDLLA (poly-D,L-lactic acid) microparticles with hyaluronic acid (HA). The HA gives an immediate boost of hydration and a slight plumping effect, while the PDLLA works on long-term collagen stimulation, so it functions as both a collagen biostimulator and a filler.

Also called the PDLLA Collagen Regenerating Booster, it is a non-surgical anti-ageing skin rejuvenation treatment formulated to restore skin volume, intensely hydrate and stimulate natural collagen production. It plumps the skin and promotes structural remodelling to address acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, saggy skin, stretch marks, enlarged pores and dull skin.

This hybrid injectable uses PDLLA, a biodegradable polymer that stimulates natural collagen synthesis by activating fibroblasts in the skin. This improves skin structure and firmness, and enhances elasticity and texture over time. As collagen density increases, skin can look smoother and more elastic, supporting gradual skin rejuvenation.

  • Hydration + collagen — HA works now, PDLLA over the following weeks
  • About 45 minutes — including numbing time
  • Little to no downtime — redness usually settles within an hour
  • 1–2 years — typical duration, depending on the regimen

How it works

How does a PDLLA skin booster work?

Two components work on different timelines. The hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps the skin straight away, softening fine lines. The PDLLA microparticles activate fibroblasts to build new collagen, so skin texture and firmness keep improving over the next few weeks as collagen density increases.

Immediate hydration and plumping

The HA provides an immediate boost of hydration and a slight plumping effect, bringing rapid hydration and glow to dehydrated, dull skin.

Who is PDLLA suitable for?

The PDLLA formulation is designed for use on the face, neck and décolletage, where it helps give the skin a smooth, youthful look. Your doctor checks your skin, goals and medical history first to confirm it suits you.

  • Dry & dull skin

    The HA in the product provides rapid hydration and glow to dehydrated, dull skin, helping to brighten it.

  • Enlarged pores

    Collagen stimulation helps reduce pore size, for smoother, more radiant skin.

  • Wrinkles & fine lines

    Hydration and collagen stimulation together give a sustained improvement in skin quality and an increase in skin thickness, smoothing wrinkles and lines.

  • Acne scars

    Collagen remodelling improves the appearance of atrophic (depressed) acne scars.

  • Saggy skin & lost volume

    Replenishing collagen gives a more resilient skin structure, and restores and increases skin volume.

Your treatment journey

Discuss your goals. Numb. Inject evenly. Resume your day.

  1. Consult

    Discuss your skin goals with our doctor before treatment. Each person's skin is different, and some people may need longer or more sessions.

  2. Numb

    Topical anaesthetic cream is applied to numb the treatment area and minimise discomfort during the injections.

  3. Treat

    The PDLLA solution is delivered with an injector gun for even distribution. The whole procedure takes approximately 45 minutes, including numbing time.

  4. Aftercare

    Redness and swelling should subside within an hour. Make-up can be worn after 30 minutes, and physical activities can be carried out later that day.

Safety & expectations

Each person's skin is different, so discuss your skin goals with our doctor before treatment.

Redness and swelling usually settle within an hour. As with any injectable, bruising, tenderness or small bumps can occur; even delivery with an injector helps minimise nodules. Seek urgent care for severe pain, pale or mottled skin, or any change in vision after treatment.

PDLLA Filler: frequently asked questions

What is PDLLA filler?

PDLLA filler, also called a PDLLA skin booster or Collagen Regenerating Booster, combines poly-D,L-lactic acid microparticles with hyaluronic acid (HA). The HA hydrates and slightly plumps the skin straight away, while the PDLLA stimulates the skin's own collagen over time, so it works as both a collagen biostimulator and a filler.

How long does a PDLLA skin booster last?

A PDLLA skin booster is long lasting: results typically last 1 to 2 years, depending on the treatment regimen. Each person's skin is different, and some people need longer or more sessions, so the doctor will discuss a plan based on your skin goals before treatment.

When will I see results from a PDLLA skin booster?

Immediately after a PDLLA skin booster, the skin appears hydrated and plumper, with reduced fine lines. Over the next few weeks, skin texture and firmness continue to improve as collagen production is stimulated. Results vary with each person's skin condition, so it is important to discuss your goals with our doctor first.

Is there downtime after a PDLLA skin booster?

There is little to no downtime after a PDLLA skin booster. Any redness and swelling at the injection sites should subside within an hour, you can wear make-up again after 30 minutes, and physical activities can be resumed later the same day.

Does PDLLA treatment hurt?

A topical anaesthetic cream is applied before PDLLA treatment to numb the area and minimise pain or discomfort during the injections. Numbing time is included in the roughly 45 minutes the procedure takes, and the injector gun spreads the product evenly across the treated area. Tell your doctor if you are anxious about discomfort.

Can PDLLA help acne scars and enlarged pores?

Yes. The PDLLA Collagen Regenerating Booster promotes collagen remodelling, which improves the appearance of atrophic (depressed) acne scars. Stimulating collagen also helps reduce pore size, leaving skin smoother and more radiant. Your doctor will assess your scars and pores and advise how many sessions may help.

How is PDLLA different from a PLLA collagen biostimulator?

Both use lactic-acid-based polymers that stimulate collagen. PDLLA is combined with hyaluronic acid, so it also hydrates and plumps the skin straight away, and it is delivered into the skin with an injector gun. Our collagen biostimulator uses poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) mainly to correct facial volume loss over a course of sessions.

Is a PDLLA skin booster suitable for all skin types?

PDLLA addresses a wide range of concerns across the face and neck, which makes a PDLLA skin booster suitable for most adults and skin types, after an assessment. It is designed for use on the face, neck and décolletage. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have a skin infection, so they can confirm it suits you.
