COLLAGEN
for Wrinkles and Scars

Collagen is actually part of the natural support structure of your skin.  Wrinkles form when this natural collagen thins.  This loss is mostly a factor of aging, but exposure, pollution, health, heredity and lifestyle also play roles.  Without enough collagen, wrinkles and lines start to form wherever the skin moves.  Collagen Replacement Therapy (using ZydermÒ and ZyplastÒ collagen implants), replenishes the skin's collagen layer, smoothing lines and wrinkles, and adding definition to lip borders from the inside out.  The results are immediate.

Collagen Replacement Therapy has been proven safe and effective for well over 20 years.

ZydermÒ and ZyplastÒ collagen implants are natural products derived from highly purified bovine collagen that is injected just under the surface of the skin. 


Before injection


After injection

Like your own collagen, your body eventually absorbs this collagen, so ongoing treatments are necessary to maintain results.  If you discontinue treatments, the new collagen is simply reabsorbed and your face gradually returns to its natural contours.

While healing time varies, many people return to work the same day.  People absorb collagen at varying rates, but treatments generally last 3 to 6 months.

You and Dr. Neiman will tailor a treatment program to meet your individual needs.  No matter which options you choose, be sure you receive enough collagen to achieve the look you want.
