FACE TREATMENTS
Ellansé
For facial volume loss, wrinkles and longer-lasting collagen-driven contouring
At Clinic RX, Ellansé treatment is personalised according to your facial anatomy, degree of volume loss and aesthetic goals. It may be used to restore selected areas of facial volume, soften folds and improve facial contour and definition.
In Malaysia, Ellansé S is the variant currently available, with results typically lasting up to approximately 2 years. Individual longevity varies according to the treatment area, amount used and individual response.
What Is Ellansé?
Ellansé is an injectable filler that combines immediate volumising with collagen stimulation. It contains PCL microspheres suspended in a gel carrier.
The gel provides the initial contouring effect after injection. As the gel is gradually absorbed, the PCL microspheres remain temporarily within the tissue and stimulate new collagen formation around them.
This makes Ellansé different from conventional fillers that mainly rely on the injected gel itself to provide volume.
How Does Ellansé Work?
Ellansé works in two stages. First, the gel carrier adds volume immediately, allowing the treated area to look more supported or defined after injection.
Over the following weeks, the gel is gradually absorbed. The PCL microspheres then act as a temporary scaffold that stimulates your body to produce new collagen around the treated area.
As a result, the initial gel-driven volume is progressively supported by collagen formation, allowing the result to develop and mature over time.
What Can Ellansé Help With?
- Cheek and mid-face volume loss
- Hollow-looking temples
- Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Chin definition and projection
- Jawline contouring
- Overall facial volume restoration and contouring
- Selected ageing-related volume loss in the hands
The most appropriate treatment depends on your facial anatomy, degree of volume loss and the type of correction you want to achieve.
Areas That Can Be Treated with Ellansé
- Cheeks - to restore selected mid-face volume and support
- Temples - to improve hollow-looking temples
- Nasolabial folds - to soften deeper smile lines
- Marionette lines - to soften selected lower-face folds
- Chin - to improve definition and projection
- Jawline - to enhance contour and definition
- Hands - to restore selected ageing-related volume loss
Other facial areas may be considered depending on anatomy and medical assessment. The injection plan should be individualised rather than using the same amount or placement for every patient.
What Happens During an Ellansé Treatment?
01Consultation & Facial Assessment
The doctor assesses your facial structure, volume loss, previous filler history and treatment goals.
02Treatment Planning
The treatment areas, amount required and injection points are planned for a balanced, natural-looking result.
03Skin Preparation & Numbing
The treatment area is cleansed and numbing may be used to improve comfort.
04Ellansé Injection
Ellansé is injected into the selected areas using an appropriate medical injection technique.
05Aftercare Guidance
You will receive instructions on swelling, exercise, heat exposure and care of the treated area.
What Results Can I Expect from Ellansé?
- Restored volume in selected facial areas
- Improved facial contour and definition
- Softer-looking folds and lines
- Gradual collagen-driven improvement after the initial volumising effect
- Longer-lasting contouring compared with many conventional fillers
The initial volumising effect is visible immediately after treatment, although swelling may temporarily influence the appearance.
Collagen-related improvement develops progressively over the following months. Results are temporary and vary according to the treatment area, amount injected, facial anatomy and individual response.
Who Is Suitable for Ellansé?
- People with selected facial volume loss
- People with hollow-looking temples or reduced cheek volume
- People wanting chin or jawline contouring
- People wanting to soften selected folds and lines
- People seeking a longer-lasting collagen-stimulating filler option
- People who understand that Ellansé is not dissolved in the same way as hyaluronic acid filler
Suitability varies between individuals and should be confirmed during consultation.
Who May Not Be Suitable for Ellansé?
- Active skin infection, open wound or significant inflammation in the treatment area
- Known allergy to product components
- A history of significant filler complications, depending on medical assessment
- Certain autoimmune or medical conditions, depending on medical assessment
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Use of blood-thinning medication without appropriate medical clearance
- Patients who specifically want an easily reversible filler option
Tell your doctor about your medical history, medications, allergies and all previous facial filler or aesthetic treatments before proceeding.
Ellansé Side Effects & Risks
As with any injectable filler treatment, Ellansé can cause temporary injection-related effects and carries uncommon but potentially significant complications.
- Redness, swelling and bruising
- Tenderness at injection sites
- Temporary lumps, firmness or unevenness while swelling settles
Less common complications can include persistent nodules, inflammation, infection or other filler-related reactions. As with any filler injection, accidental injection into a blood vessel is a rare but serious complication that requires urgent medical assessment.
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Ellansé does not have a simple, widely available dissolving agent. This is an important consideration before treatment.
Is There Downtime After Ellansé?
Downtime is generally mild. Redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising may occur immediately after injection.
Swelling is often most noticeable during the first 24-72 hours and then gradually settles. The initial contour becomes clearer as swelling decreases, while collagen-driven improvement continues to develop over the following months.
Ellansé Aftercare
- Avoid touching or massaging the treated area unless instructed by your doctor
- Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat for approximately 24-48 hours if advised
- Avoid alcohol for the period advised if it may worsen bruising or swelling
- Use a cold compress only if recommended
- Avoid makeup for several hours after treatment if advised
- Follow the specific aftercare instructions provided for your treatment area
