Ellansé in Penang | CANVAS Medical Clinic
The polycaprolactone (PCL) collagen stimulator that corrects on the day and keeps building for months — with results that can last two years or more. Physician-administered at Gurney Walk, George Town, for cheeks, temples, chin and jawline contour that ages gracefully with you.
What is Ellansé?
Ellansé is an injectable of polycaprolactone (PCL) microspheres — a bioresorbable polymer with a long history in dissolvable sutures — suspended in a carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) gel. Like Radiesse, it acts twice: the gel gives immediate, natural-feeling correction, while the PCL microspheres stimulate your own type I collagen — the strong, youthful collagen — for months.
What distinguishes Ellansé at CANVAS Medical Clinic in George Town, Penang, is longevity: because PCL resorbs slowly, the collagen scaffold persists longer than most biostimulators, with results typically maintained for two years or more depending on the version used. It suits patients who want contour restored once — and then simply maintained.
How it works
- Consultation & planning. Your physician assesses volume loss and facial balance, and selects the Ellansé version and volumes appropriate to your anatomy and how long you want the result to last.
- Treatment session. Product is placed precisely in the planned zones. You see the corrected contour immediately — what you leave with previews the shape to come.
- Collagen takes over. Over eight to twelve weeks, PCL microspheres stimulate your own type I collagen, which gradually replaces the gel carrier as the source of the result.
- Long maintenance arc. Results are typically maintained for around two years or more. Reviews are scheduled so top-ups happen only when genuinely needed.
Benefits
See it on the day
The gel carrier delivers immediate correction — no waiting months to know how you'll look.
The strong collagen
PCL stimulates predominantly type I collagen, the structural protein most associated with youthful firmness.
Exceptional longevity
Among the longest-lasting resorbable injectables available — commonly two years or more.
Natural movement
Treated areas stay soft and mobile; the result is rebuilt tissue, not a static implant.
Fewer appointments
One well-planned session per area is often sufficient, unlike multi-session biostimulators.
Cost-efficient over time
Longer duration means fewer repeat treatments across the years.
Who it's for
Ellansé may be suitable if you:
- Want restored cheek, temple, chin or jawline contour that lasts
- Prefer to see an immediate result rather than wait for gradual change
- Are tired of repeating shorter-lived filler treatments every year
- Want a natural-feeling result that moves with your expressions
- Have realistic goals and want them planned around your anatomy
- Value fewer, better-planned clinic visits
Ellansé is not used in the lips or tear troughs, cannot be dissolved once placed, and is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or with active infection in the treatment area. Suitability is always confirmed at consultation.
Ellansé vs Sculptra vs Radiesse
All three are collagen biostimulators, but they occupy different points on the immediacy–longevity spectrum. Sculptra (PLLA) is fully gradual — nothing on day one, everything built over a course. Radiesse (CaHA) balances a strong immediate result with twelve to eighteen months of support. Ellansé (PCL) pairs an immediate result with the longest maintenance arc — typically two years or more.
Which is right depends on the area, your timeline and how your tissue responds. At CANVAS all three are on formulary, so the recommendation is driven by your face — not by what happens to be in the fridge.
