What is Collagen

Collagen is a natural substance found in the skin, muscles, tendons and bones. It provides a kind of frame to the body of humans and animals.

There are several forms of collagen, some of which are used to smooth wrinkles or lips swell. Bovine collagen is extracted from the skin of dead cows, sterilized and liquefied. It can be injected into the lips to swell or under to soften wrinkles. But the bovine collagen is eventually absorbed by the body, which is why its effects last only about three months.

Marine Collagen is also used in wrinkle creams. Marine collagen is extracted from the food industry residues, mostly waste of fish or shrimp.

Other substances, not from the skin of dead cow, can be used to swell the lips. The Alloderm is extracted from the skin of dead people and allows for larger lips. It is made of thin sheets of human collagen dried by the cold that can be rolled and placed after incision in the lips of a person to give them more volume. This product undergoes a special treatment to reduce the risk of rejection by the body and gets rid of any diseases. The Alloderm was a time used successfully in the treatment of burns. It is also used in treatments to enlarge the penis several layers of Alloderm strips are then placed around the shaft of the penis to make it grow.
