Power Col-Tra
What Is It?
Power Col-Tra is a collagen-stimulating protocol based on poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It does not create volume where it is placed; the change comes from the collagen production triggered while the PLLA is absorbed by the tissue.
What sets it apart from combined products in the same family is that its content sits on a single axis: only the collagen side works here, with no hydrating or tone-evening component. The early period is therefore quiet, while the duration reported in the source data reaches up to 2 years. Face, neck and décolleté can be planned together in one application.

How Is It Done?
Assessment measures skin thickness, the loss of tissue support and the share of volume loss separately; that the result will spread over months is discussed from the outset. The prepared product is delivered with a cannula or needle into the planned layer in an even distribution, after a topical anaesthetic cream. The procedure averages 30 minutes and ends with a demonstration of the massage routine. The plan reported in the source data is 2-3 sessions.
Who Is It For?
Suitable for people with a gradual loss of tissue support in the face and body who want a change spread over time. It is preferred in wide areas such as the temples, below the cheekbone, the cheeks, the neck and the décolleté; the under-eye and lips are not this product’s territory.
Because the treated area is large, the health history is taken in detail. Pregnancy and breastfeeding, active infection in the area, a known problem with scar healing, uncontrolled immune disease and sensitivity to the product content all change the plan.
Results & Duration
The change becomes visible not on the day of application but as the collagen response accumulates: the first difference is usually felt after the second month, and it becomes clearer between the third and sixth months. The duration reported in the source data is up to 2 years and varies with the amount applied; the effect is not permanent and the interval for renewal is set at review.
What Is Not Promised
Power Col-Tra is not a filler: it does not add volume on the day of application and does not change facial proportions. It does not gather sagging skin and does not replace surgical lifting. It has no effect on pigmentation or surface colour problems. No particular degree of firmness, number of sessions or duration is guaranteed.
Key Benefits
- Long-term firmness
- Collagen renewal
- Skin quality support
“When I discuss this protocol I ask the patient one question: can you wait? If the answer is “I want it visible now”, then we meet under a different heading, not this one. PLLA works slowly and quietly.”
— Dr. Sinan Akyürek
Frequently Asked Questions
How does it differ from combined PLA protocols?
Power Col-Tra works only through poly-L-lactic acid. In protocols carrying hyaluronic acid a hydration effect is also felt in the first days, whereas here the entire change depends on the collagen response.
When is the result seen?
The first difference is usually felt after the second month; no assessment is made on the first week.
Where is it applied besides the face?
The neck, décolleté and wide body areas can be planned; the amount and distribution are set at examination.
How long does it last?
The duration reported in the source data is up to 2 years. It varies with age and the amount applied, and it is not permanent.
