Indonesia's Skincare Market Highlights Sunscreen Use for 50+ and Collagen Stimulator Treatments

Skin‑care experts advise people aged 50 and older to use a broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily to protect against photo‑aging, loss of collagen and elastin, and skin‑cancer risk. Daily sunscreen is deemed the most essential product, with additional emphasis on moisturisers to maintain skin barrier function as the skin thins and becomes drier with age.

Separately, VandS Clinic, a Korean aesthetic provider operating in Indonesia, South Korea and Japan, promotes collagen‑stimulating injectables as a longer‑lasting alternative to conventional skin boosters. The clinic offers three types of collagen stimulators, including Sculptra (poly‑L‑lactic acid) which activates fibroblasts to produce new collagen, and Radiesse, which combines volume support with gradual collagen growth. Prices start around Rp 596,000 per 1 cc. Clinic spokesperson Seol explained that the treatment encourages the body’s own collagen production, delivering results that develop over four to six weeks and last significantly longer than hyaluronic‑acid fillers.
