Juläine London explains what collagen injections in London mean today and connects you with the doctor-led practices at UNTIL Marylebone that give Juläine, an injectable that gets your skin making collagen of its own.
The short answer
What a collagen injection is today
Most people who ask for collagen injections now are asking for a collagen stimulator: an injectable that contains no collagen but prompts the skin to build more. Juläine is one, made from poly-L-lactic acid. It is placed in the deep layer of the skin, where the cells that make collagen lay new fibres down around it over the next two to three months, so the skin becomes firmer and the folds from nose to mouth soften.
The change is gradual and the maker gives a lifetime of 12 to 18 months. Juläine injections in London goes through the appointment, and an enquiry is how you reach a doctor at UNTIL Marylebone.

Collagen fillers and collagen stimulators
The first collagen injections, approved in the United States in 1981, were fillers made of collagen itself, taken from cattle and later from pigs and people. Their effect typically lasted three to six months, and allergic reactions were one reason they fell out of use; by 2010 most had been discontinued. What clinics call collagen injections today are usually collagen stimulators, such as poly-L-lactic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite, which prompt your body to make its own collagen. Juläine is one of these; PLLA treatment explains how the material works.
Collagen boosting injections
Clinics use collagen boosting, collagen booster and collagen stimulating for the same idea: an injectable that sets the skin's fibroblasts to work. Poly-L-lactic acid, the material in Juläine, is one such material, and its maker describes a slow, low-inflammatory response that builds collagen around each microsphere. Skin boosters made of hyaluronic acid are often sold alongside them, but they mainly hydrate and are a different treatment. Ask what is in the syringe before you compare two quotes.
Collagen induction treatment
Collagen induction therapy is another name for microneedling: many tiny needle punctures across the skin's surface, with no product left behind. It works on texture and scarring near the surface. A collagen injection places material deeper, where it builds structure and firmness, so the two are sometimes combined but are not interchangeable.
Do collagen injections work?
They can, but the change is gradual and the evidence is still building: a 2024 systematic review of poly-L-lactic acid rated most of it as low quality. In a 2025 study of 36 adults funded by the maker of Juläine, 44.4% had at least one point less wrinkle severity a month after the first session and 63.9% after two months. The maker evaluates results no sooner than four weeks after treatment. Collagen injections do not lift loose skin, Juläine is never used in the lips, and the treatment suits people prepared to wait for the result.
Collagen injections for the face
The maker of Juläine designed it for the nasolabial folds, the creases between the nose and the corners of the mouth. Practitioners in London, including one at UNTIL Marylebone, also publish its use on hollow cheeks and the midface, the jawline and early jowls, the neck, the chest and the backs of the hands. Each area is treated with small amounts in a pattern of points, a session takes 30 to 60 minutes, and one 5 mL vial usually covers both sides of the face at one visit. Ask the doctor which areas they treat most often and why they would choose them for you.
Collagen injections before and after
A collagen stimulator shows nothing useful on the day. Swelling in the first few days can look like an instant result, and the maker says it settles within a few days. The real change, firmer skin and softer folds, appears over two to three months and holds for 12 to 18 months according to the maker of Juläine. The only fair comparison is your own photographs: one set before the first session and another at three months, under the same lighting. Juläine results month by month breaks the timeline down.
How much do collagen injections cost in the UK?
In London, Juläine costs £950 to £1,495 a session and £2,350 to £4,955 for a course of three at the clinics that publish a price, checked on 13 October 2026. Sculptra, another PLLA collagen stimulator, is listed from £400 to £450 a vial at one Marylebone practice and from £550 a session at another; Juläine vs Sculptra compares the two.

FAQ
Collagen injections:
your questions
Do collagen injections contain collagen?
Not the ones most clinics give today. Collagen stimulators such as Juläine contain poly-L-lactic acid, which prompts your skin to make collagen of its own over two to three months. Juläine London explains the difference because a quote for collagen injections can mean several different products.
Are collagen injections safe?
For most healthy adults the common effects are short-lived: redness, swelling and bruising for a few days. Small lumps can occasionally appear weeks or months later, and injections near vessels carry a very rare risk. Juläine London connects you with doctors at UNTIL Marylebone; ask for their GMC number first.
How long do collagen injections last?
The maker of Juläine gives a lifetime of 12 to 18 months for a course, with a review suggested at about 12 months. Some clinics quote longer. Juläine London uses the maker’s figure, and notes that age, sun and smoking all affect how long your own collagen response holds.
Can collagen injections be used under the eyes?
Juläine’s maker does not list the under-eye area among its uses, and its instructions rule out the lips entirely. Under-eye skin is thin and behaves differently from the cheeks. Juläine London suggests asking the doctor at your assessment which treatment suits that area before you plan a course of anything.
Are collagen injections the same as dermal fillers?
No. A hyaluronic acid filler adds volume you see on the day and can be dissolved with an enzyme. A collagen stimulator such as Juläine works through the new collagen it prompts, so the result builds over months. Juläine London covers both, because they solve different problems.
