JULÄINE™: The most powerful biostimulator available in Surrey. Find out about it in our aesthetic clinic based in Esher, Surrey
If you’re exploring cutting-edge aesthetic treatments in Surrey, JULÄINE™ (often styled “Julaine” or “JULÄINE of Sweden”) is fast becoming one of the most talked about. In this blog, we’ll explain exactly what JULÄINE is, how it works, how it compares to other PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) treatments like Sculptra, what it can treat, who’s ideal, risks, what a treatment course looks like and how much it typically costs.
What Is JULÄINE™?
JULÄINE™ is a next-generation injectable treatment based on poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It’s a biostimulator, not a dermal filler. Rather than simply “filling” wrinkles or volume loss, JULÄINE stimulates your body to produce its own collagen over time. It uses a patented microsphere technology (called LASYNPRO™) with uniform, high-purity PLLA microspheres to achieve smoother, more consistent results, longer lasting effects, and a better safety profile. The product is CE-marked in the UK/EU, meaning it has met regulatory safety standards.
How Is JULÄINE™ Different from Other PLLA Products Like Sculptra?
While both JULÄINE and Sculptra are PLLA-based biostimulators (i.e. they trigger collagen formation), there are some important differences:
- Particle / microsphere technology & uniformity: JULÄINE uses more uniform, smooth microspheres; the LASYNPRO™ manufacturing is intended to reduce aggregation and improve integration in tissue. This helps significantly reduce risks of uneven texture and nodule formation.
- Inflammatory profile and side effect management: Due to its higher purity and uniform microsphere size JULÄINE does not require any post treatment massaging protocol by comparison to Sculptra, which has stricter protocols (e.g. massage after injections) to prevent lumps.
- Onset, longevity & number of sessions: Many reports indicate that JULÄINE™ begins to show visible improvements around 2-3 months after treatment, with peak effect around 6-9 months, and lasting up to about 2 years depending on individual factors. Sculptra is well known to last similarly, but some may need more sessions or more vials for similar effect.
- Less downtime – A standard JULÄINE™ treatment for the face uses a single vial of product which is comprised of 5ml by comparison to Sculptra which is often 2 vials comprising between 18-20ml. There is therefore much less swelling and downtime following a JULÄINE™ treatment.
How the Science Works (for a Lay Person)
Here’s a simple explanation of how JULÄINE works in the skin:
- Injection – Microspheres of PLLA are injected under the skin (deep dermis or superficial fat) into areas of volume loss, hollowness, sagging or fine lines.
- Foreign body reaction & fibroblast activation – The body recognises these microspheres as a “signal” to begin repair. Fibroblast cells are stimulated to produce collagen (especially type I and III collagen), which gives structure, elasticity, and thickness to the skin.
- Gradual improvement – Unlike fillers, which give immediate volume, the effect of JULÄINE builds over weeks to months as new collagen forms and integrates. The microspheres degrade slowly over time — the PLLA is biodegradable.
- Maintenance – After the initial course of injections, the collagen built remains for many months. Some clinics recommend periodic maintenance treatments (often yearly or every 12-18 months) to sustain results.
What Issues Can JULÄINE™ Treat?
JULÄINE is versatile. Some of the conditions or aesthetic concerns it is used for include:
- Facial volume loss: cheeks, temples, midface hollowing
- Skin firmness and elasticity: reducing sagging or laxity e.g. jawline, lower face, neck
- Fine lines & wrinkles: surrounding smile lines, nasolabial folds, marionette lines
- Texture and thickness of skin: often improves dull or thinning skin
- Scarring: acne scars, stretch marks and post-weight-loss skin laxity
Who Is the Ideal Candidate?
JULÄINE is best suited to someone who:
- Wants natural improvement rather than “sudden, dramatic volume”
- Is willing to wait weeks/months to see results (patience required)
- Has early-to-moderate signs of ageing: sagging, hollowness or skin thinning
- Has realistic expectations about what biostimulators can do vs fillers
- Is medically healthy and not pregnant or breastfeeding; no active skin infection or major inflammatory skin disease in the treatment area.
Risks & Side Effects
As with any injectable treatment, there are potential risks. JULÄINE’s safety profile appears good, and many clinics report few serious adverse events, but be aware of:
- Redness, swelling, bruising at the injection site
- Tenderness or mild discomfort
- Delayed onset nodules or small lumps (though reports suggest lower risk with JULÄINE due to uniform microspheres)
- Risk in patients prone to keloid or hypertrophic scarring
- The usual contraindications: pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain autoimmune conditions
What Does a Treatment Course Look Like?
Here’s what most clinics in Surrey / London report:
| Step | Treatment Count / Timing |
| Consultation | Initial medical assessment to make sure candidate is suitable. |
| Number of Sessions | Usually 2-3 sessions per treatment area, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. |
| Duration per Session | Typically 30–60 minutes per session depending on the size of the area being treated. |
| When Results Appear | Subtle changes often visible in weeks; more noticeable improvements around 3 months, peaking around 6-9 months. |
| Duration of Effect | Up to 18-24 months in many patients; maintenance sessions (once per year or so) may be needed. |
Rough Pricing Guide (Surrey & London)
Here are some ballpark costs you might see in clinics in Surrey / Greater London:
- Single session: from £900 upwards for smaller areas or one vial.
- Full course (2-3 sessions): typically £1,200-£3,000+ depending on the number of vials, treatment area.
If you are in Surrey and looking for a natural, long-lasting alternative to dermal fillers, JULÄINE™ offers many compelling advantages. Because it stimulates your own collagen, the improvements look more natural over time, with fewer risks of overfilling. The new microsphere technology makes it safer and more predictable compared to older PLLA treatments like Sculptra.
For people who value gradual, subtle rejuvenation, want to avoid the “puffy” filler look, have sagging, hollowing, early aging, or skin thinning — and are prepared to invest in 2-3 sessions — JULÄINE™ is absolutely worth considering..
