WHAT IS
COLLAGEN?
Collagen
is a natural protein used to "fill in" wrinkles, scars, and other skin
imperfections.
WHERE
IS COLLAGEN USED?
Collagen
is injected into many types of skin irregularities, including crow's feet,
melolabial folds (smile lines), forehead lines, smoker's lines, frown
lines, acne scars, and others.
ARE YOU
A CANDIDATE?
Not everyone
is a candidate for collagen. Before receiving collagen, an allergy skin
test must be performed to determine if you are allergic to collagen. Allergies
to collagen are rare, but do occur; therefore, testing is important.
HOW LONG
DOES COLLAGEN LAST?
Collagen
lasts between three and six months. When imperfections begin to reappear,
retreatment of collagen is recommended for maintaining the desired result.
