Q:
I love your site! I already have your book and thought
it was excellent, too. My question is about collagen. I have it
injected into my lips and love the results, but want something
that lasts longer. Does dermologen last longer?
Dr.
Loftus Answers: Thank you for the kudos on my site and my
book. They are greatly appreciated. As for you lip injections,
yes, dermologen can be used. The company that makes it claims
that it lasts longer than bovine (cow) collagen because it comes
form humans rather than cows. This makes sense to me, but I have
seen no reports indicating that this claim is true. (nor have
I seen reports indicating that it is false) My guess is that it
does last longer. I think that if you liked the results form your
collagen injection, you would not be disappointed in dermologen.
