Collagen / Dermalogen

Collagen and Dermalogen are filler materials that can smooth wrinkles, improve scarring, and enhance the lips. When used to treat facial areas, these natural fillers will stimulate your body's own collagen layer, producing an immediately-replenished skin tone.

In a quick and easy in-office procedure, collagen and dermalogen implants are injected into the natural collagen layer just under the surface of the skin. Because the implants are made of a natural substance, the body recognizes them as their own. Results are immediate. This process usually takes about a half hour, and most patients get back to their regular routine right after it's done.

Most patients enjoy the smoothing results of these implants for about 3 to 6 months, although the exact duration of results can vary based on the area being treated and the extent of treatment. The collagen dermalogen implants can wear down with time, so most patients pursue repeat procedures. You can work with your doctor to determine the treatment plan that will most benefit your needs.

Some topical creams and moisturizers may help to rejuvenate the outer layer of skin and help the appearance of results. However, the key ingredient for treatment of the important sublayers of the skin is alpha hydroxy acids. If a topical solution lacks this ingredient, it will not reach those deep layers, and thus will not have the replenishing effect of collagen or dermalogen implants.
