Therafill — Phuket | Lushwood Clinic

Therafill is a collagen-stimulating injectable (PCL) that boosts natural collagen, softens shallow grooves and refines skin for a smoother, firmer, natural look

Overview

Therafill is an injectable containing Polycaprolactone (PCL), a biodegradable collagen stimulator, used to fill shallow grooves, refine and firm the skin and restore elasticity. It suits early ageing, shallow grooves, or anyone wanting to boost skin quality for a healthy, natural look. Results are gradual and natural and should be performed by an expert physician.

Benefits

How it works

PCL is injected into the appropriate layer; beyond immediate fill, it prompts fibroblasts to build new collagen over several weeks, so skin looks smoother, firmer and more elastic naturally — usually done per the doctor's plan.

Duration: 30-45 minutes

Downtime: Minimal — slight swelling/bruising for 1-3 days

Suitable for: Early ageing, shallow grooves, wanting a collagen and skin-quality boost

Results & Timeline

Skin looks smoother and firmer as new collagen forms — noticeable within a few weeks and improving over time, with softened shallow grooves. Usually done per the doctor's plan for best results. Results vary by individual.

How it compares

Therafill is a PCL-based collagen stimulator focused on skin quality and firmness, similar to Sculptra/Ultra V, but different from HA filler which adds instant volume/shaping and is enzyme-reversible. The choice depends on your goals and the doctor's assessment.
