Collagen is a protein substance which cosmetic surgeons have been
using effectively and safely in hundreds of thousands of patients
over the years to treat facial wrinkles and scars, as well as to
augment lips.
Most patients require a skin test prior to treatment, since approximately
two percent of patients show an allergic reaction to this substance.
Ninety eight percent tolerate the test without a mild reaction and
proceed with one to four Collagen treatments over the course of
a year. Results are immediate and, except for slight redness or
puffiness which usually subsides by the next day, little recovery
time is necessary. The effects of Collagen last from three to six
months and then additional treatments are needed to restore the
skin to its desired state.
Every year thousands of men and women achieve great success with
Collagen. Smooth skin can make you more comfortable with yourself
and confident with others. For additional information or personal
