Drug: Collost (Collost)
Collostotherapy is a minimally invasive innovative technique that is used in the beauty industry to renew, restore and rejuvenate the skin. The effect is due to the action of the drug Collost - a natural collagen complex.
Collost particles are identical to collagen synthesized in human tissues. It consists of an internal frame that gives the skin elasticity, density, and smoothness.
Aggressive external and internal factors contribute to the destruction and reduction of the production of this important compound, which immediately affects the condition of the skin. With deep injection, Collost gel replenishes the lack of collagen fibers and activates the natural mechanism of collagenosis.
How is the Collostotherapy procedure performed?
The duration of the procedure is individual and is about 30-40 minutes. The surface of the skin is cleansed of cosmetics and sebum. Next, a cream with an anesthetic effect is applied or an anesthetic injection is performed.
Collost injections are administered in a sitting or lying position, depending on the location of the affected area. Collost is introduced pointwise or at an angle.
The final stage is a massage in the area where the drug is administered to ensure even distribution.
Results of the procedure for introducing Collost
After administering injections, you should not expect instant results, but you should also not be afraid of your appearance.
At first, the skin will turn sharply pale; a whitish coating and purple areas with pronounced swelling may appear on it. The natural color should be restored in 3-4 hours, and then you can leave the beauty salon on your own. If you have your own transport, then you won’t have to think about how to spend these 3-4 hours. After a day, the appearance will be the same as before the procedure.
The result of the anti-aging procedure can be assessed only after a month, not earlier.
How long the effect will last after the administration of Collost depends on the patient’s age, individual problems, as well as lifestyle. The qualifications of the cosmetologist also play a role.
When using injections for rejuvenation and correction of defects in the facial area, the effect lasts up to a year, when treating acne - up to six months. In the future, you will have to return to normal therapeutic measures or repeat Collost.
In order not to be disappointed with the result, you need to properly care for your skin after the procedure:
- Avoid ultraviolet radiation, cover your face with a visor on sunny days, and avoid visiting the solarium for 2 weeks.
- It is necessary to avoid thermal procedures for a week - these include baths and saunas.
- Procedures for further correction of appearance cannot be performed within 2 weeks.
- Decorative cosmetics can be used 3 days after the procedure, however, when removing them, it is necessary to avoid active mechanical effects on the surface of the skin.
To make your appearance flawless, collostotherapy is combined with the following procedures:
- Chemical peeling. The upper dermal layer is burned out by applying chemical components. In combination with Collost injections, the skin is effectively renewed.
- Microdermabrasion - peeling with diamond chips. Biogel is administered 2 weeks after microdermabrasion, which helps speed up the restoration of the skin and shorten the rehabilitation period.
- Botox injections. If 2-4 procedures with Collost are carried out 2 weeks before the administration of botulinum toxin, the skin regeneration process will go faster and the skin will quickly smooth out. In addition, immobilization of the facial muscles will not be so conspicuous; the appearance will look more natural.
Cosmetologists recommend combining Collost with various types of laser treatments. In this case, the rejuvenation effect lasts up to 1.5 years.
Efficiency
Collost fills voids in tissues, saturates them with active substances and “building” material for natural renewal. The relief is leveled, structure and density are restored, and skin turgor improves. The high regenerating and rejuvenating effect of collotherapy allows us to consider it as an alternative to surgical techniques.
Collotherapy effectively eliminates scars, scars, stretch marks, while restoring and rejuvenating the skin.

Why Collost is better than other beauty injections
Often, for wrinkles or other skin changes, cosmetologists recommend undergoing various procedures, for example, mesotherapy, Botox injection or biorevitalization.

Stages of the procedure?
Introduction Collost does not require preliminary preparation. You call the clinic, make an appointment at a convenient time - and you don’t need to follow any diets, hide from the sun or refuse to take a hot bath.
Before proceeding directly with the administration of Collost, the doctor will conduct allergy tests to find out whether you are hypersensitive to collagen. If after 15 minutes there is no redness at the injection site, the cosmetologist proceeds directly to the procedure, which takes place in 4 stages:
- Skin cleansing
- Anesthetic treatment. This step will make the procedure painless
- Administration of the drug using linear, micropapular, tracer or layer-by-layer techniques
- Applying a soothing cream
What areas can Collost help with?
The drug is used to restore:
- Facial skin. The gel eliminates purse-string, frontal, nasolabial wrinkles, normalizes complexion, eliminates post-acne and vascular spots
- Areas around the eyes. With the help of Collost, crow's feet, age-related drooping of the upper eyelid, bags under the eyes are eliminated
- Necks. The procedure helps to get rid of wrinkles on the neck, which are difficult to remove with other drugs.
- Belly. Collost removes stretch marks and scars in this area
- Breasts. This eliminates sagging skin and smoothes out wrinkles in the décolleté area.
- Hips, buttock areas. Injectable collagen has a lifting effect, eliminates stretch marks and spider veins
- Backs. In this area, injections are performed in the presence of stretch marks, post-acne or hypertrophic scars
- Limbs. Collost moisturizes the skin, restores its tone, eliminates spider veins
Post-acne treatment
Skin changes after acne are actually scars.
Collost solves this problem:
- It fills the space under such a scar, lifting it
- Being absorbed, it gives rise to the formation of healthy tissue inside the skin, which will displace scar tissue.
Thus, the effect of introducing Collost during post-acne lesions will be their gradual smoothing and restoration of normal skin texture.
Collost for removal of scars and stretch marks
If a scar is essentially a “pile up” of collagen fibers, then stretch marks (striae) are areas of rupture of collagen and elastin fibers. Both of these problems are solved by the introduction of Collost: healthy skin is formed at the site of injection of the drug, and it replaces both the scar and the striatal defect.
Collostotherapy is the method of choice for the treatment of scars and stretch marks. It is an excellent alternative to laser treatments or chemical peels, which are harmful to the skin and can lead to serious complications.
The drug is effectively used to treat skin that has undergone age-related changes.
It triggers the restoration of the dermis at the molecular level, therefore:
- Not only facial wrinkles are smoothed out, but also folds in the lower third of the face and on the neck
- The oval of the face is tightened
- Moisturizes the skin
- Reduces the severity of age spots
- The work of the sebaceous glands is normalized
Recovery after the procedure
The rehabilitation period after the injection of Collost takes several minutes - until the traces of injections disappear. No restrictions are required on this or subsequent days.
The final effect of Collost injection will be noticeable after 2-4 weeks.
Consequences of the procedure
Collost is a natural remedy, the molecular structure of which is completely identical to that of humans. Therefore, the drug does not cause complications . Only in some cases, redness occurs at the injection site, which quickly passes.
