What are the newest trends for fillers in 2026?

2026 is a year where subtle, beautiful results with science-backed formulas take the lead.

Scientific innovation is being led by what patients want today; natural-looking results, harnessing your body’s existing healing and rejuvenation processes, and the best consistency or formula to provide optimal results that are long-lasting and safe. The newest trends in 2026 follow this theme with a push towards fillers and techniques that maximize your body’s collagen production and mimic your skin’s existing quality; so they’re not obvious and look natural. 

Biostimulatory fillers are making waves for good reason

Traditional dermal fillers are out!  Make way for Biostimulatory fillers that do exactly what the name suggests; they harness your body’s biological response to stimulate  the production of structural proteins like collagen and elastin. While traditional fillers literally “fill” the face, often with hyaluronic acid (HA), biostimulatory fillers work with your body’s regenerative power. You can imagine that a result that’s paired with the  natural process of plumping or restoring volume looks more natural: and that’s a big part of the benefit here. Results continue to show up long after treatment as the cell turnover accelerates and the visual results of collagen production (volume, smoother skin, radiance) start to appear.

How biostimulatory fillers tie into a comprehensive skincare treatment plan

One key component of Dr. Dusan Sajic’s 5 Dimension Skin Plan™ is addressing the natural structural skin loss that happens to us all. This includes the collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid (HA) that naturally decline over time, weakening the skin’s foundation. This can also accelerate concerns like laxity and thinning skin, making biostimulant fillers like Radiesse increasingly appealing for patients seeking a natural, beautiful result. 

Why is everyone so excited about biostimulatory fillers for 2026?

The way that biostimulatory fillers work allows for two phases of outcomes: results that appear immediately like traditional fillers; including some filling of wrinkles and lines from the filler itself, and gradual progressive improvements that appear over the months following treatment as your body builds new elastin and collagen. By continually reinforcing the supportive scaffolding that supports a youthful appearance, this dermal filler has long-lasting benefits.

Biostimulatory filler benefits:

1. Provides Immediate results to address volume loss or depleted areas
2. Activates your body’s natural healing and rejuvenation response for results that are subtle
3. Stimulates the cells that produce collagen (fibroblasts) to generate new collagen
4. naturally absorbs back into the body as the results of collagen continue to appear and support the natural scaffolding of the face
5. Produces long-term, natural results that last up to 12-18 months.

These fillers may contain Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) like Radiesse, or Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA) like Sculptra. 

Diluted filler technique allows for a more even, subtle result

While Radiesse results are typically more even and smooth than some other fillers, a skilled injector may dilute a biostimulatory filler when applying to delicate areas like the eyes, neck, cheeks, or backs of hands. This practice is trending for a similar reason; results that look natural and harness your body’s natural healing response is a hallmark of regenerative medicine. While fillers are typically used to boost volume, diluted formulas are more focused on an outcome that supports the cellular matrix and supportive scaffolding underneath the skin, providing holistic support that elevates the skin on the  face or body as a result. 

Other aesthetic trends we’re seeing for 2026

• Combination treatments: We’ve been passionate about holistic care since deRMA’s inception, because we know that maximizing outcomes means personally pairing treatments and designing custom strategies for each unique patient. As this concept becomes more mainstream, more practitioners are realizing that combining treatments like injectables and taking a more multimodal approach to signs of aging can result in more optimal results.
• A focus on longevity and regenerative medicine: Having a medical background means that we’re always considering your overall health and wellness, even when you’re coming to us with an aesthetic inquiry. Markets are beginning to shift this way as well; even the increased interest in biostimulatory fillers shows that patients are curious about effective treatments that don’t just treat the immediate or put a band-aid on a concern. They’re looking at long-term regenerative cosmetic results.
• Expanded use of injectable treatments for uses beyond the face: Dermal fillers and injectable treatments are increasingly being used to treat scars, address aging on the back of hands and body, and to treat medical concerns. As we gain a wider cultural understanding and acceptance of injectables and what they do, we also see a rise in how they’re applied.
