Do collagen creams work to eliminate wrinkles?
No. The area of the skin where collagen resides is the dermal layer, the second layer down. Creams containing collagen, or anything else, cannot penetrate into the dermal layer. In order to get the collagen to this layer, it must be injected or stimulated to grow with laser technology. Most experienced cosmetic surgeons offer collagen injections, along with other skin treatments, both with and without lasers. To decide whether collagen injections are the best way to go for you, schedule a consultation with Dr. Fante.
