Collagen Replacement Therapy - Dermal Fillers

Collagen Replacement Therapy is a safe, non-surgical treatment that smooths out facial lines, wrinkles and scars by replenishing the natural collagen support layer beneath your skin.

What is collagen?

Skin, your body’s largest and most visible organ, is composed of two layers. The uppermost layer, called the epidermis, acts as a protective barrier. It controls the loss of water from cells and tissues without it, your body would quickly dehydrate. Just beneath the epidermis is the dermis. This layer is primarily composed of a protein called collagen. Collagen forms a network of fibres that provides a framework for the growth of cells and blood vessels. As the main component of the dermis, collagen acts as the support structure for your skin.

Why do lines appear?

When your skin is young, the collagen framework is intact, keeping your skin moisturized and elastic. Young skin is resilient—the facial lines that appear when you smile or frown simply disappear when you stop smiling or frowning. Over time, the collagen framework weakens and your skin loses its elasticity.
