Collagen Injections

Collagen is a substance that is injected into facial lines and scars to fill the depressions and improve facial appearance. It can also be used to create more fullness to the lips. The effects of collagen are temporary, usually lasting about six months. There are other filler agents that will be available and can be discussed with Dr. Silberman at a cosmetic office consultation. For more information you can go to the American Society of Plastic Surgery.
