How does Lanluma® work?
Lanluma® is a dermal filler based on PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid), a biocompatible substance that stimulates the production of collagen naturally present in the skin. Lanluma® injections are used to restore volume to the face and body, correct signs of cutaneous aging and improve skin quality. Lanluma® is biocompatible and 100% biodegradable.
PLLA microparticles are encapsulated in the tissues just a few days after injection, gradually promoting the production of new collagen. This tissue reaction gradually takes hold, helping to reduce loss of volume and correct wrinkles, fine lines, hollows and folds.
This aesthetic treatment achieves natural results, similar to those of cosmetic surgery, with reduced risks and recovery time.
What are its indications?
By stimulating natural collagen production in depth, Lanluma® creates volume and can be used to reshape your face and body. The volumizing effect smoothes skin irregularities and improves contours for a better-shaped face and figure.
The main indications are as follows:
- Correct wrinkles and facial folds
- Restore volume to cheeks, temples and cheekbones

As with any medical treatment, Lanluma® injections present risks and potential complications. Common side effects include mild pain, swelling, bruising and redness at the injection site.

At a glance
Between 30 and 60 minutes, Lanluma® also contains a local anesthetic for greater comfort during injection and reduced risk of hematoma.
On an outpatient basis, 3 days before the session, it is important not to take aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs, as they may increase the risk of bleeding and bruising.
It is recommended not to touch the area treated with Profilho® or massage it for at least 24 hours.
After the session, we recommend avoiding the sun, sauna, steam bath and sports for 24 to 48 hours, as they may increase the risk of inflammation and swelling.
Immediately. It is essential to massage the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 2 weeks, in order to distribute the product evenly.
The result
An immediate effect is seen over a limited period. Results are then progressive. After 6 weeks, a visible improvement is seen: skin depressions are corrected and wrinkles smoothed. Skin structure is also restored.
Results take hold gradually over a period of 2 to 3 months, and last for two years. Neocollagenesis (production of new collagen) continues approximately 9 to 10 months after treatment. At the same time, the PLLA will be progressively degraded and completely reabsorbed.
We recommend 2 to 4 sessions spaced two months apart, depending on your expectations.
