With an injectable treatment, the product is placed directly into the skin or tissue. A topical treatment works from the surface, so we shouldn\u2019t assume that the two will produce the same response or the same results.<\/p>\n<p>At the clinic, we use a number of treatments that sit within the wider regenerative aesthetics conversation, including <a href=\"https:\/\/drpreema.com\/treatments\/injectables\/polynucleotides\/\" title=\"Polynucleotides London\">polynucleotides<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/drpreema.com\/treatments\/injectables\/profhilo\/\" title=\"Profhilo London\">Profhilo<\/a>, alongside non-injectable approaches such as <a href=\"https:\/\/drpreema.com\/biostim-treatment-london\/\" title=\"Biostim treatment London\">Revision D\u00b7E\u00b7J BioStim<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For me, it isn\u2019t about one being better than another. It comes back to what we\u2019re actually trying to improve.<\/p>\n<p>If skin quality is the main concern, that\u2019s a very different conversation from treating loss of facial structure, more significant laxity or pigmentation. And importantly, not every patient who wants to improve their skin needs or wants an injectable treatment.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/drpreema.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/revision-dej-biostim-before-after-3-treatments.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Revision D\u00b7E\u00b7J BioStim before and after three treatments showing improvement in visible skin quality&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Revision D\u00b7E\u00b7J BioStim Before and After 3 Treatments&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_height=&#8221;480px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||-30px||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;6px||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Montserrat||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Prata||||||||&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Prata||||||||&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;10px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Montserrat&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Do topical biostimulators really work?<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Prata||||||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; inline_fonts=&#8221;Montserrat&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<p>Based on the evidence we have so far, I think there is good reason to be interested in topical biostimulation.<\/p>\n<p>For <a href=\"https:\/\/drpreema.com\/biostim-treatment-london\/\" title=\"DEJ Biostim London\">D\u00b7E\u00b7J BioStim<\/a> specifically,<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/40277079\/\" title=\"DEJ Biostim Clinical Study 2025\"> published research<\/a> has shown changes in collagen and elastin alongside measurable improvements in fine lines, skin laxity, smoothness, radiance and overall skin quality.<\/p>\n<p>But this is still an emerging area, and I\u2019d like to see the research continue to develop.
