Collagen is one of the most important structures of the skin that give skin its elasticity and tautness.
As you age, your skin gradually starts losing its natural collagen which in turn leads to a reduction in facial volume, which in turn makes the skin more lax and results in the formation of folds and wrinkles.
Collagen stimulators like Ellansé are biocompatible and biodegradable and contain Poly L Lactic Acid which naturally stimulates the collagen forming cells to produce its own natural collagen to restore facial volume. By restoring facial volume, jowls are lifted which in turn reduces the lines and folds.
Ellansé is a collagen stimulator that is injected and acts like a dermal filler Ellansé has a two fold action, it not only corrects wrinkles and folds, it also stimulates your own collagen to achieve longer lasting results.
It is made from Poly-L Lactic acid and Polycaprolactone: both of which have been used extensively in medicine for many years.
The benefits of ellansé are:
- Immediately corrects lines and folds.
