Collagen Procedures

 

 

 

Collagen injections are temporary fillers for smoothing out facial wrinkles. As the body’s natural collagen layer diminishes from aging, sunlight and lifestyle factors, collagen replacement injections fill in the unwelcome areas smoothing lines, wrinkles and/or adding definition to the lip border.

Collagen has been proven safe and effective for over 15 years. Like your own natural collagen, your body gradually absorbs collagen so ongoing treatments are necessary to maintain results. If you decide to discontinue the treatments, the collagen is simply reabsorbed and your face gradually returns to its natural contours. Treatments generally last three to six months.

A skin test is required 30 days before the first collagen injection can begin, although, the new human collagen does not require a skin test. Please call our office to decide which collagen treatment is right for you.
 

 


Permanent Collagen Implants (ePTFE Wrinkle Implants)
Soft ePTFE facial implants are designed specifically for use in the deeper frown lines, nasal furrows, and the mid-facial area. Collagen implants are used to re-contour your face and provide definition to your cheeks, chin and lips.

The implantation procedures for the lips and nasolabial folds are performed under a local anesthetic. A small incision is placed at either end of the treatment site and the implant is gently inserted and positioned. The incisions are closed with a suture and the procedure is typically completed in less than an hour.
 

 

 

Collagen injections give your skin a plumper, smoother appearance. The treatment replenishes the skin's natural collagen, a protein which serves as the support structure for the skin.

The natural beauty of your skin is enhanced as the contour of the support structure is restored.

By supplementing your skin's own collagen, this therapy helps smooth facial lines as well as most types of scars, and can make your lips more full and youthful in appearance.



Advancements in Collagen Replacement Therapy
