CosmoDerm & CosmoPlast

The way your skin looks is directly related to the way your skin is supported. Collagen is actually part of the natural support structure of your skin. Wrinkles form when this natural collagen layer thins during the course of aging. Other factors that weaken the collagen fibers include exposure to the environment, disease, injury, heredity, and lifestyle.

CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast, made of highly purified human-based collagen, can be injected into your skin to fill certain lines and facial furrows. Based on the results of a clinical study conducted by Inamed Corporation, a pre-treatment skin test, to determine if you might have an allergic response, is not required.

CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast collagen implants are injected into the collagen layer just below the surface of the skin, and are used to fill in unwanted lines and wrinkles and restore the border of the lip. Treatment results are immediate and may last anywhere from three to six months, depending on the area being treated and the amount of collagen used to achieve optimal correction. Without ongoing treatments, the injected collagen is gradually absorbed by the body and your face returns to its original appearance.

You may ask what is the difference between CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast is. CosmoDerm collagen was formulated especially for people with small or shallow wrinkles or scars. It can be particularly effective in smoothing delicate frown and smile lines, as well as fine creases that develop at the corners of the eyes and above and below the lips. It can also help correct certain kinds of shallow scars.

CosmoPlast collagen was designed to treat depressions requiring a stronger treatment material. It is used for pronounced wrinkles and scars and for areas upon which more stress is exerted (such as the corners of the mouth

CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast collagen implants may be used alone or in conjunction with one another.

Dr. Roche will work with you to develop a treatment program to meet your individual needs.
