What are Collagen Injections?

Injectable Zyderm and Zyplast collagen are natural derivates of purified bovine (cow) collagen, which basically replaces the natural collagen skin loses with age. Collagen is injected beneath the skin to plump up creased and sunken areas of the face by filling deep facial wrinkles such as laugh (smile) lines and crow's feet and provides instant results. Collagen can also fill in scars. Injectable bovine collagen in the most popular substance used for soft-tissue augmentation in the US.

FDA Approval Since 1981: Collagen injections were approved by the FDA in 1981. Since then, over 2 million people worldwide have received collagen injections. More than 796,526 people had collagen injections in 2001alone and the ASAPS states collagen to be, "a safe, time-tested and effective treatment."

How collagen is injected: Collagen is injected with a tiny needle into skin depressions. Several injections may be required, depending on the length and depth of the wrinkle and can be completed in less than an hour. Afterwards, patients can return to work and/or other activities.

Maintenance: Additional injections would be necessary every three to six months to maintain results. Patients should discuss maintenance options with their plastic surgeon.

Resurfacing and Facelifts: Collagen and Fat Injections can be performed in conjunction with a resurfacing procedure or facelift.

Risks: Slight bruising. Pre-testing for allergic reaction is recommended by the ASAPS.

Most interviews, or doctor - patient consultations, last no more than (30) thirty-minutes. During that time a tremendous amount of critical information will be exchanged between you and your doctor. For a variety of reasons, your ability to remember, recall and utilize this information hours or days later is considerably diminished. As a plastic surgeon that has conducted thousands of consultations over the past thirteen years, it is my experience and point of view that most patients DO NOT recall critical elements of information gathered during the interview process. These videotaped segments present accurate and reliable information that you need to understand in order to make informed choices. You will be able to review these tapes and this information as many times as you need, and with whom you wish to, in the privacy of your own home.
