Evolence™ - a natural treatment you can trust

Evolence™ is based on collagen, which throughout two decades of use has maintained an excellent safety record as an injectable beauty treatment.

Evolence™ has also undergone additional extensive safety testing. Is a pre-test necessary? Evolence™ is a natural product and due to the Glymatrix™ technology it is able to mimic the properties of the natural collagen found in the skin. Therefore, while an allergic reaction is theoretically possible, it is extremely rare. Pre-testing is not a prerequisite to treatment with Evolence™ . Patients with a history of hypersensitivity, particularly know allergies to collagen, should consult their doctor. Can I have Evolence™ treatment if I am pregnant or breast-feeding? The use of Evolence™ during pregnancy or breast-feeding has not been tested, and is therefore not recommended. Can the treated area be exposed to sunlight or extreme cold? During the first few days after treatment, exposure to extremes of temperature or to strong sunlight should be avoided to reduce the risk of inflammation.

How would I receive my treatment of Evolence™ ?

Before treatment the injection site is prepared with an anaesthetic cream to minimize discomfort and pain. Evolence™ is then introduced via a fine needle just below the skin surface -- the implant is slowly injected under the wrinkle as the needle is withdrawn. The treatment should only take between 30 and 60 minutes and the results are visible immediately.

How long do the effects of Evolence™ last?

Collagen has been used in medicine for over a century and has been in common use as an injectable cosmetic material for more than two decades.

However, the major disadvantage of collagen-based fillers is limited longevity; maintenance of results usually requires repeat injections 2 to 3 times per year.

With its patented Glymatrix technology, Evolence™ has set a new standard for the longevity of collagen treatments, with an effect lasting at least 12 months.

Why choose Evolence™ ?

During the natural aging process, the collagen layer which support your skin gradually diminshes, giving rise to wrinkles, lines and folds. You can now counteract these effects. Evolence™ restores your natural youthful appearance by replenishing the lost collagen, adding volume and smoothing away unwelcome wrinkles.

How does Evolence™ remove wrinkles, lines and folds?

Evolence™ is injected just below the skin surface, where it replenishes lost collagen and adds support to your skin's own remaining collagen network. It restores shape and smoothes away wrinkles, lines and folds, quickly and effectively to give your skin texture a soft even tone.

How long do the effects of Evolence™ last?

Evolence™ restores the skin's tone for a period of at least 12 months. This means repeat procedures may not be needed for at least a year -- unlike other treatments that tend to need repeating 2 or 3 times a year. Most importanly, the visible effect of the improved facial contour is maintained throughout the 12 month period.
