Plumping Gel-to-Serum Treatments

Kiehl's 1cc* CollaShot Plump Serum Revives Deflated Facial Volume

The 1cc* CollaShot Plump Serum is a new skincare launch from Kiehl's in the form of a bouncy gel-to-serum form designed to support visibly plumper-looking skin, enhanced firmness, well-defined facial contours, overall radiance, and more. This collagen serum features Recombinant Collagen Polypeptides to support the skin's natural renewal process in a Supra-Liposomal delivery system for results that are delivered instantly and over time—without a needle. Packaged in a compact bottle that resembles an injectable, the serum features Vitamin B12, which gives the formula its natural pinkness.

Sagging, hollowed, dryer-looking skin can result from rapid GLP-1-driven weight loss, and as people experience "Ozempic face," brands are answering the call with hyper-targeted skincare solutions to address facial deflation, wrinkles, and a lack of elasticity and firmness.
