What is Ultracol 200?
Ultracol 200 is a collagen booster made from PDO (polydioxanone) — a material used safely in surgical sutures for over 30 years — processed into fine spherical microparticles. It is injected directly into the dermis to stimulate your own collagen production. The 200 type uses thicker particles than the 100 type, so it is mainly used where volume and contour correction is needed, such as under-eye hollows, deep nasolabial folds, and sunken cheeks.
How it works
When the fine PDO particles are injected into the dermis, they stimulate fibroblasts so that your skin produces its own collagen. The injected particles break down into water and carbon dioxide over roughly 4-6 months and are naturally absorbed, while newly formed collagen fills in volume and firmness. Unlike a filler that creates instant shape, Ultracol 200 works gradually — collagen begins forming from about 4 weeks after the procedure and the effect builds over time.
Key benefits
- Improves volume in hollow areas and refines facial contours naturally
- Boosts skin firmness through your own collagen production
- Softens fine lines and folds such as nasolabial lines
- Improves skin texture and the appearance of pores
- Changes begin around 3-4 days and are most visible near 8 weeks (results may vary by individual)
Who it's recommended for
- Those whose under-eyes or cheeks look hollow, making the face appear tired
- Those bothered by deep folds that make them look older
- Those who prefer a natural improvement over the obvious volume of filler
- Those looking for a collagen booster with a relatively low risk of nodules
- Those who want to build and maintain collagen over several sessions rather than a one-off treatment
Ultracol 200 at Seye Clinic
Before your Ultracol 200 treatment, the Seye Clinic medical team carefully checks your skin condition, the areas of volume loss, and the degree of improvement you want before deciding on the amount and injection sites. A PDO collagen booster works most naturally when collagen is built up gradually over several monthly sessions rather than injecting a large amount at once, so our team follows a principle of honest, unexaggerated dosing and consultation tailored to each area. We also guide you through recovery and the follow-up schedule.
