Collagen Injections
What to expect
Fountain Valley Maxillofacial & Cosmetic Surgeon | Dr. H. Cyrus Hajarian is a specialist in the facial cosmetic surgery procedure: collagen injections in Fountain Valley, CA. It is important to remember that results are not permanent. Injected material is eventually metabolized by the body. You should not expect the same long-lasting results that may be gained from cosmetic surgery. Results may vary depending on the filler chosen.
Injections are usually performed in the office with topical anesthesia or dental nerve blocks depending on patient preference.
The Treatment
Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that provides support to various parts of the human body: the skin, the joints, the bones and the ligaments. Collagen is used primarily to fill wrinkles, lines and scars on the face and sometimes the neck, back and chest. We currently use Zyderm, Zyplast, Cosmoderm and Cosmoplast.
