Collagen

Collagen is a key component of the skin which gives it volume and firmness. As you age, collagen production begins to slow down, causing skin tissue to become thinner and weaker. This loss of strength and volume causes skin to sag, and creates fine lines that eventually deepen into more pronounced wrinkles.

Dr. Mentz offers a number of both surgical and non-surgical options to correct the damage caused by the breakdown in skin’s collagen. Cosmetic fillers such as Sculptra® Aesthetic and Radiesse® actually work to stimulate the production of collagen, while hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Perlane® Juvederm®, and Restylane® immediately add facial volume and fill in facial creases.

For those who would like a more effective and long-term rejuvenating option, a facelift, brow lift, or eye lift will more dramatically improve appearance by smoothing skin and lifting sagging facial features to give the face a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
