Unlike dermal fillers, which create instant volume, JULÄINE™ works gradually and naturally to restore the skin’s structure, firmness, and radiance.
For patients seeking subtle, long-lasting improvement without looking “done,” JULÄINE™ represents a new standard in regenerative aesthetics. By enhancing skin quality over time, it leaves you looking fresher, healthier, and more confident.
At Dr Paul Elgey Aesthetics in London, we specialise in bespoke, natural results. JULÄINE™ fits seamlessly into this philosophy, helping patients achieve a rejuvenated appearance that feels authentic and balanced.
Midface / Cheeks: Restoring contour and firmness
Jawline: Sharpening definition and structure
Chin: Improving projection and balance
Lower Face: Softening marionette lines and early jowling
Neck & Décolletage: Improving fine lines and crepey texture
Hands: Restoring youthful density.
It is not used for lip augmentation but complements other treatments beautifully when improving the overall harmony of the face.
We begin with a detailed facial analysis, reviewing your skin health, history, and treatment goals. Every plan is bespoke, ensuring results that enhance your natural features. The procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes. After cleansing and applying anaesthetic if needed, small amounts of JULÄINE™ are carefully injected into targeted areas. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising, which typically resolves within 1–3 days, and most patients return to normal activities the same day.
Unlike fillers, results are not instant. Improvements appear gradually over 2–3 months as new collagen forms, with full results developing after completing the treatment course. Effects typically last 12–24 months, with some patients enjoying benefits for up to 3 years. Maintenance sessions can extend results.

At our London clinic, we take a personalised, safety-first approach to collagen biostimulation. Every JULÄINE™ treatment plan is tailored to your skin quality, facial structure, and long-term goals, ensuring results that develop gradually and look entirely natural. From how many sessions you may need to how JULÄINE™ compares to other regenerative treatments, we cover everything you need to feel informed and confident before proceeding.
Dermal fillers provide instant volume. JULÄINE™ stimulates your skin’s own collagen, gradually improving firmness, density, and texture over time.
JULÄINE™ is powered by poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) microspheres, a clinically proven material used safely in medicine for decades. Its formulation is designed to trigger the skin’s natural healing and regenerative pathways, resulting in the production of new collagen fibres.
This slow and steady process avoids the “sudden change” that some patients worry about with dermal fillers. Instead, improvements unfold gradually, making JULÄINE™ ideal for patients who want natural-looking anti-ageing results.
Most patients need 2–3 sessions, spaced 3–6 weeks apart, for best results.
Subtle improvements may be noticed within weeks, but the most significant changes develop after 2–3 months.
