Collagen is great revitalizing material
that is used widely on different parts of the face to
rejuvenate wrinkles, tired, lackluster appearances. It
is commonly injected into the lips to provide definition
and a plumper, sometimes poutier, look. Its is also often
used to smooth out wrinkles between the nose and corners
of the mouth, and for the wrinkles bordering the mouth.
Collagen can also flatten obvious scars.
Collagen is a natural
substance that replenishes the body's own layer of collagen
under the skin. So, when injected into the skin in implant
form, they are accepted as a recognized material, and
immediately stimulate the existent, though diminished,
original collagen. A visible change occurs right after
the injection, so patients walk out of their treatments
feeling a renewed confidence. The results usuually last
for about 3-6 months, depending on the amount of collagen
used the area of the face that was treated.
A collagen treatment usually takes
about 30 minutes to administer. Most patients are able
to get right back to work or other normal routines immediately
following the treatment.
