Collagen Injection
Collagen has been mainly used in
cosmetic procedures and as skin substitutes for burn patients. Collagen
is a natural substance that is found in skin, muscle, tendons and bones
and provides structural support. Collagen injections and treatment are
safe, non-surgical procedures that softens lines and furrows on the face.
A collagent injection can last anywhere between one to six months, although
in some people one injection of collagent may be sufficient for up to
two years. Your surgeon or specialist may suggest combining collagen injections
with other cosmetic procedures to achieve the best possible results.
