Collagen

Overview Of Procedure

Collagen is a natural protein that provides structure and is found throughout the body in skin, muscle, tendon and bone. The collagen fibers are woven together like threads in a fabric to form a framework. It provides the skin texture with resiliency and shape. Collagen in human skin is very similar to the collagen in some animals, and as a result animal collagen has many medical applications, including sutures and heart valves.

Collagen Corporation invented Zyderm collagen, a reconstituted bovine material that is safe, relatively simple to use, and provides immediate improvement in deep furrows, indented scars, and congenital loss of tissue. This material has been in high demand through the '80s and '90s, known as a product that will reverse many of the signs of aging, such as thinning of the lips, overhanging of the cheeks, as well as improving the "sad" look of the lower mouth/chin area.
