Bovine Collagen For Lip Augmentation in Costa Rica

The main challenge of lip augmentation is the quality and type of material to be used or inject into the lips to make it bigger and fuller. Medical professionals before actually tried a lot of injectable materials such as paraffin and liquid silicone but too bad that both were a failure. However, medical science did not stop until they found an effective injectable material to use and it was on the year of 1980 that an injectable bovine collagen was introduced which has been used as standard filler for the other material or fillers used in today’s lip augmentation plastic surgery in Costa Rica. 

However, bovine is rarely used now because it doesn’t last long and the preparation takes too long because a lot of tests are performed first. Through continuous research and studies of medical experts, biocompatible fillers were developed in the late 1990’s. Biocompatible materials include autologen, collagen, dermalogen, alloderm, radiance, and Gore-tex implants. Until now, these fillers are widely used in Costa Rica plastic surgery. There are even new materials used and one of which is Restylane.
