How can karisma treatments help?

The extra-special element of this treatment is in the inclusion of the world’s first injectable Type-1 collagen, Karisma! Due to it’s non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, it gives a filling and slightly volumetric effect, meaning we can see some results immediately after the treatment.

Until now, collagen has been obtained from animal tissues. The collagen in this treatment is extremely special because it’s actually produced by genetic engineering by silkworm butterflies meaning it has better biocompatibility – it’s identical with human collagen meaning our cells recognise it immediately, so know how and where to use it, giving results straight after the treatment which continue to improve in the weeks following.

What other benefits does it give?

  • It accelerates the multiplication of fibroblasts – the cells that produce collagen and elastin
  • It aids and accelerates tissue regeneration
  • It is non-immunogenic, hypoallergenic, and does not cause allergic reactions, so a safer option than dermal fillers
  • Fantastic for glycation lines (vertical cheek lines), deep lines around the mouth & chin
  • Improves the quality, thickness, density and firmness of the skin
    Intense, deep skin hydration
  • A fab alternative to dermal fillers

How the treatment works

Find out more about the karisma collagen biostimulator treatment process and what you can expect at Rediscovered Skin Clinic.

01

Consultation

We assess your skin quality, hydration levels, and areas of concern to decide if skin boosters are the right fit. This is about improving the condition of your skin, not adding volume.

02

Treatment Prep

Your skin is cleansed and numbed for comfort, and the treatment areas are carefully mapped out. We’ll talk you through exactly what to expect before we start.

03

Treatment Process

Tiny injections deliver hydrating and regenerative ingredients directly into the skin, improving elasticity, texture, and overall glow. Think better skin, not bigger features.

04

Aftercare

You may have small bumps or slight redness for 24–48 hours. Skin gradually becomes more hydrated, smoother, and healthier over the following weeks.

What this treatment works well with

Karisma collagen biostimulator works synergistically with other treatments to enhance both immediate and long-term results. While it stimulates the body’s natural collagen production to improve skin structure and elasticity, dermal fillers provide instant volume and contour. Chemical peels help refine skin tone and clarity, and micro-needling further boosts collagen while improving texture. Together, these treatments create a smoother, firmer, and more radiant complexion with lasting rejuvenation.

FAQs

You will generally start to see improvement in hydration levels in your skin around 1-2 weeks after your first treatment. The best results come in the weeks following as your collagen network is rebuilt.

We can apply a numbing cream to the treatment area for 20 minutes before treatment so the process is not painful although there may be minor discomfort as the product can sting a little.

The results of improved skin hydration and reduced skin pigmentation last 6 to 9 months.  This may vary and does depend on factors such as the structure and condition of your skin, lifestyle factors and age.

The procedure has no downtime (although as with any injectable treatment there may be bruising and swelling) and the patient can immediately continue as normal.  On occasions there may be significant swelling in the under eye area.

As with all our treatments you will have a full consultation and medical history taken.  Treatment with skin boosters is not recommended in the following instances; 

If you have a skin infection in or near the treatment area or are unwell in any way (even a cold). 

If you have previously experienced allergic reactions to any of the ingredients or local anaesthetic 

If you are taking any medicines which affect bleeding, such as aspirin or warfarin, or have a bleeding disorder. 

If you are taking steroids or have autoimmune disease.  

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding 

If you are currently or have recently completed a course of Roaccutane (Isotretinoin acne treatment) in the last 18 months.  

If you have suffered from keloid scars, scleroderma or epilepsy

Your skin may have pin prick marks & tiny blebs/bumps at the injection site. There may be some redness, swelling, tenderness, and bruising which should settle within the next few days. Makeup should not be worn for 12 hours.
