The Benefits of Collagen Injections

You see the word collagen a lot these days: it’s in your favorite lotion, vitamins, and just about every product found in the store aisle, such as masks, serums, hair products, and even food. Each of these products claims to boost or restore collagen production. But do you know why it’s so beneficial? 

What Exactly is Collagen?

Collagen, one of the most abundant proteins in the body, connects the body’s tissues and helps the skin retain its shape and protect it from tearing and deformation. The vast majority of collagen in the human body is found in the skin, ligaments, tendons, organs, and bones.

As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, diminishing our skin’s elasticity and leading to unsightly wrinkles, sagging skin, joint pain, and cartilage degeneration. In addition, sun exposure and other factors such as genetics, stress, smoking, and toxins in the environment can reduce collagen production. As early as our 20s, our collagen production begins to decrease.  

Collagen Injections

Collagen injections are a cosmetic procedure performed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles such as crow’s feet and laugh lines. It can also be used to add fullness or definition to the lips and cheeks. 

During the procedure, collagen is injected beneath a wrinkle or in the lips. Your body absorbs the collagen over a few months. Collagen treatments can be customized to meet individualized needs – for example, whether it is used to fill in deep depressions in the skins or to eliminate superficial lines.  

The quick in-office procedure is easy to administer. And many patients are happy to discover that collagen injections provide immediate results.

 

The injections can be used in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures, such as laser skin resurfacing treatments, and facial treatments such as photofacials, Botox injections, and facelifts. Treatments are commonly repeated every three or four months to maintain a healthy youthful appearance.

Why You Should Get A Collagen Injection

Yes, collagen is mostly known for keeping skin tight, flexible, and smooth. When we are youthful and have an ample amount of collagen, our body can more easily keep our skin healthy, reducing the appearance of lines, wrinkles, veins, stretch marks, and cellulite.

Collagen injections help your skin look firmer, increases its smoothness and elasticity, and most importantly, helps our renew and repair our skin cells.

Other benefits of collagen include:

·        Improves skin and hair

·        Reduces joint pain and degeneration

·        Boots metabolism, muscle mass, and energy

·        Strengthens nails, hair, and teeth enamel

·        Improves organ health

·        Improves gut health and digestion

·        Protects cardiovascular health

Collagen also helps form connective tissue and therefore strengthens the protective lining of the gastrointestinal tract, helps joint stiffness and mobility, makes hair shiny, increases energy, and helps balance your body and its overall structure and elements (tendons, muscles, bones, etc.).

A healthy diet and lifestyle can help prevent the decrease of collagen production.

Maintaining higher levels of collagen may not make you age backwards like Benjamin Button, but your skin will tell a different story, making you appear more youthful than ever before.

We look forward to helping you maintain your best appearance. To learn more about the benefits of collagen, and if you are a candidate for collagen injections, call The Vein Institute & MediSpa in Kingwood, Texas, today at (281) 312-0208 to request an appointment, or request an appointment online.
