One of the soft tissue fillers approved by the FDA for filling out wrinkled lines in the facial area is the temporary absorbable filler material, collagen. It is a naturally occurring substance preferred by a lot of cosmetic surgery patients who pay heed to play safe. These collagen injectables can be either made of collagen that occurs in the dermis, bones and tendons of the human body or it could be extracted from cows in a highly purified form. While collagen does occur naturally in the human face, it has been observed to lose its tautness with age resulting in the formation of wrinkles. A cosmetic surgeon introduces this filler into the human body via injection after which it is absorbed by the host and treated as inherent to the host body. However, use of collagen injectables

Collagen is a protein material with superior mechanical properties. It consists of collagen fibrils composed of a staggered array of ultra-long tropocollagen (TC) molecules. Theoretical and molecular modeling suggests that this natural design of collagen fibrils maximizes the strength and provides large energy dissipation during deformation, thus creating a tough and robust material. The molecular model of collagen developed by Markus Buehler, an assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, explains for the first time the distinctive structure of collagen, a material key to healthy human bone, muscles and other tissues. The new model shows collagen’s structure from the atomic to the tissue scale. An improved understanding of nature’s most abundant protein could aid the search for cures to such ailments as osteoporosis, joint hyperextensibility and scurvy, all recognized as arising from diseased collagen. It could also guide engineers’

Facial Modifications with Collagen by Ricardo de SilvaThere are many different procedures that plastic surgeons can use to restore and rejuvenate the human face. Facelifts, Botox, brow lifts and many other procedures can all be used to create a more youthful and smooth appearance.
