What’s Behind the Collagen Injections?
When someone is considering getting collagen injections to help fill any problem areas with their skin and lips, they might wonder what it is that collagen is made from. Collagen is actually part of the connective tissue in animals. To be more specific, it is a protein in this tissue and it makes up about one quarter of a mammal’s protein altogether. This protein is found naturally within the human body, but decreases over time. Through the use of collagen you can plump lips more naturally, decrease scar tissue appearance, and fill areas plagued by wrinkles, more so than with toxins like Botox.
