PCL refers to polycaprolactone, which is a biocompatible and biodegradable material commonly used to stimulate collagen production. As with any injection of product, the procedure itself triggers a tissue repair process. Subsequently, the PCL filler brings about a healing cascade that eventually stimulates and remodels collagen. Typically, PCL microspheres are suspended in CMC gel, meaning they can only result in localised effect and cannot spread out into the entire face.

The illumia Injectable Liquid PCL is microparticle-free, and it is also homogenously soluble in water. When injected uniformly into the dermal or subdermal layer, the liquid PCL spreads out into the entire face while degrading naturally via hydrolysis. It can then help to rejuvenates skin through collagenesis and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, even out skin textures, and slow down signs of ageing altogether.

There are a total of 10 injection points, and you will normally see visual results such as smoother and plumper skin 1-2 weeks after the treatment. It usually takes about 6-12 months for the liquid PCL to get degraded in the body, so it is recommended to take a total of 3 treatment sessions at 4 week interval.
