 The Truth About "Collagen Injection"

   Beware of breast augmentation and noselift procedures using injected "collagen". 

     Very cheap but they actually use "silicone oil".  Silicone oil has been banned for cosmetic surgery and produce unfavorable 'permanent' complications.

  • Complications on silicone oil injections
    • post silicone oil injection of the nose
      • swollen, warm and reddish nose due to reaction/inflammation caused by the silicone oil
      • injected silicone oil is difficult to remove; a special surgical instrument and technique is needed to adequately remove this
      • this patient underwent a two stage procedure: first, removal of the injected silicone oil, and second, rhinoplasty with the use of soft type silicone implant

 

READ THIS if you want any of the following:
  • wrinkle treatment (forehead frowns, nasolabial folds, depressed corners of mouth)
  • lip augmentation
  • correction of acne scars
  • augmentation of chin/cheekbones
  • augmentation of depressed cheeks

     Now what if we tell you that you can have all these done without having to go under the knife (yes, without surgery), would you like that?

     Now you can replace the lost volume of your skin with revolutionary products known as "dermal fillers".  When injected under the skin, the dermal fillers add volume to the skin, smoothing unwanted lines and wrinkles.  They provide immediate, natural looking results with more than a decade of proven safety. 

Fast and Simple

     Cosmetic corrections need neither hospitalization nor general anesthesia and do not need recovery time. After the injection, you will hardly feel any discomfort, and you may go back to work immediately.

     A very fine needle is used which makes the pain minimal.  You can see the results immediately.  "What you see is what you get".

Temporary and Permanent

     There are two kinds of dermal fillers, the temporary (Hylaform) and permanent (Aquamid)

     Hylaform is made from highly purified hyaluronic acid, a natural sugar found in all living cells that attracts and binds water, hydrating the skin and giving it volume. The effect would be smooth skin without the unwanted lines and wrinkles lasting for up to a year!  Price per mL is at US$ 350.

     Aquamid on the other hand is a completely transparent gel composed of 97.5% water and 2.5% cross-linked polymer.  The method of usage is the same except that it is non-resorbable, and thus lasting. Price per mL is at US$ 500.
