Artecoll®
Defy time and enjoy long-lasting youthful skin


Benefit:
A filler injection that delivers lasting correction of your wrinkles, other skin depressions, and volume augmentation of the lips, maintaining it indefinitely and safely.

How it works:
Artecoll’s primary ingredient, PMMA, an inert material with decades of medical experience within the human body, is blended with a small amount of collagen. A series of tiny injections are made under the skin’s surface, filling the gaps and raising skin to its normal height. Over time, the collagen dissipates and is replaced with new collagen created by the body, binding the Artecoll in place for a long-lasting effect.


   
Best Suited For: Length of Treatment: How it Feels:
There are very few restrictions regarding who can be treated. Usually 30 to 45 minutes. Artecoll contains an anaesthetic that works to minimize discomfort. The needle used is very fine and the injection is virtually painless.
     
Downtime: Frequency Required:  
Minor swelling, redness, bruising, tenderness or itching may last one to two days (up to one week for lip injections). Results should be visible five years or longer. Though the implant permanently remains, the cosmetic effect will
eventually diminish as new wrinkles are formed.
