Collagen Dermal Fillers

Collagen is a natural protein substance found in the body that gives structural support to the skin. It is gradually lost as we age. As collagen fillers are usually derived either from bovine, porcine or cadaveric human sources, the main disadvantage of using one of bovine origin is the risk of allergic reaction. Therefore, one to two skin sensitivity tests need to be done before using bovine collagen fillers.

Collagen dermal fillers can last an average of three months.
