Collagen
Collagen is found naturally in human skin layer for scaffolding our skin structures. It provides support, and gives the young firm/smooth skin. When we are aged we loose the ability to produce more collagen and hence lost of elasticity, appearance of wrinkles/fine lines occurred.
The benefits we derived from injectable  collagen is:
1) To smooth out wrinkles and fine lines around the  area of eyes, face, chin and body skin
2) To increase the volume of  lips
3) To elevate scars and depression
4) To prevent sagging  breast and buttock
How Collagen is injected:
It is  injected through a small needle just underneath the skin or by  intravenously (I.V.) If redness develops it will diminish in a few  hours. Patient can continue their normal activities daily.
How Long does Collagen Last?
Initial  injected of collagen will last for four-six months. The collagen will  be gradually absorbed into the body and metabolized. Continuous  treatment of collagen injections within interval can make the collagen  last longer.
Why  Vitamin C added?
Collagen is the most ubiquitous substance  ad found mostly abundance of fibers in connective tissues of human skin.  Connective tissues that is giving us the support, firmer, smoother and  suppler skin. Also, collagen does support our organs, building of  tendons, bones, ligaments, etc.
When collagen is produced, there is a complex series of events that involving the vitamin C. It helps to form the precursor molecule called procollagen, and later to be packaged/modified into collagen. Without vitamin C/ascorbic acid, the production of collagen will be disrupted. That is why vitamin C is added along with collagen injections.
