Collagen Loss

The gradual structural changes that come with age.

What you may notice

  • Skin that feels thinner than it used to
  • Slower bounce-back after expressions
  • A general sense of "structure" fading over time

The right treatment — and whether you're a good candidate for it — is always confirmed during a consultation.

About collagen loss

Collagen loss is the gradual structural change that comes with age: skin that feels thinner than it used to, slower bounce-back after expressions, and a sense that structure is fading over time.

The treatments for it prompt the skin to rebuild. Sculptra, a poly-L-lactic acid biostimulator, works with your body to rebuild its own collagen gradually. Morpheus8 stimulates collagen and elastin beneath the surface with radiofrequency microneedling. PRP uses growth factors from your own blood to trigger the skin’s regenerative processes, and Venus Viva’s NanoFractional radiofrequency sets off the skin’s own healing response to renew treated tissue.

Which of these suits you — often more than one, sequenced over time — is confirmed with Dr. Marcelin at your consultation.

How we approach it

01

Tell us what you notice

Start with what you see in the mirror, not a treatment name — that’s what this page is for.

02

We confirm it in consultation

Dr. Marcelin evaluates your anatomy and skin to confirm what’s actually driving the concern.

03

You get a plan, not a menu

Often one concern is addressed by a combination of treatments, sequenced over time.
