Evolence™

Evolence™ was released in the UK in 2005, as a solution to the common problems which have affected other collagen dermal fillers up until that point. For instance, many found the effects did not last very long and there was noticeable swelling following treatment. Luckily for those who visit our practice, Evolence™ is an entirely natural substance, made up of derived and purified porcine collagen. Those who have the treatment will experience:  

• even skin texture
• smoothed wrinkles
• plumping for a more youthful appearance
• results for up to 12 months
• reduced overall cost due to fewer top up treatment needed
• minimal or no swelling/bruising

While it might sound alarming at first that Evolence™ is derived from pigs (more specifically the tendons in their legs), the benefits for human skin are greatly increased. Porcine collagen imitates human collagen to the closest degree that scientists have found and it is an entirely natural product with no added chemicals or compounds. This is hugely reassuring to all of our regular annual customers requesting Evolence™ treatment, as the chances of an allergic reaction or intolerance to man made materials is ruled out.

Evolence™ has a notable advantage over other collagen products as porcine substances are far more readily accepted by the human immune system than any other. This is why you often see heart valve transplants that are porcine; the body accepts them as its own. With regards to Evolence™, the porcine attributes mean that the body doesn't see it as a 'foreign substance' and the skin's natural collagen stores bind to this freshly injected amount, giving immediate effects. There is minimal inflammation and any puffiness is reduced far more quickly than with other dermal fillers. 

Used on the nasolabial folds and wrinkles (also known as 'smile lines'), skin atrophy and/or trauma, scars and a range of other skin tissue defects, Evolence™ is a product and treatment that we are proud to offer individuals visiting our practice.
