Evolence Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Evolence is a wrinkle filler that was originally used in countries overseas and that has more recently been approved for use in the United States. This is not a topical approach to skin care; instead, porcine collagen is injected into the skin to add collagen from within. This is in contrast to traditional collagen injection, which sees the use of bovine collagen that has been used in wrinkle fillers popular in the recent past, Evolence uses collagen derived from pigs. The theory behind this procedure is that, since pigskin is closer to human skin, there is no need to test for an allergic reaction prior to the treatment. This means that, according to claims, patients can see positive results in just a single visit to their doctor's office.

Wrinkle fillers like Evolence have been around for some time, and are still used by some cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists. However, with the risk and discomfort associated with such procedures, many consumers have turned to topical treatments for their anti-aging needs. The good news is that many of the topical formulas have been improved so that results can be as effective as those obtained with a needle in a doctor's office. The other drawback to cosmetic injection procedures like Evolence is that they have to be repeated on a regular basis in order for the results to continue. This can be both inconvenient and quite costly to the consumer, especially when compared to purchasing a tube of topical treatment that can easily be applied at home every day.

Product Details

The procedure will generally take place in the office of a cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist. There is no need for a test procedure, since few complain of reactions to the Evolence wrinkle filler formula. To avoid any type of discomfort during the procedure, a topical anesthesia is applied. The session is completed fairly quickly, and most patients can return to a normal routine immediately afterwards.

The most common side effect to the Evolence procedure is swelling at the sight of the injections and some mild discomfort, which can usually be treated with over the counter pain medication if necessary. Results are often achieved with a single treatment session, although the injections will need to be repeated every six months to maintain the benefit. There will be a significant cost attached to Evolence treatments and most insurance companies will not cover cosmetic treatments like these.

The Good

  • The procine collagen used in Evolence is closer to human skin than traditional bovine collagen, so there is no need for a test run prior to treatment.
  • The results of the procedure will last up to six months.

The Bad

  • As with any medical procedure, there is always some risk involved.
  • The cost of Evolence may be much higher than that of topical treatment.
  • The procedure will have to be repeated to maintain results.

The Bottom Line

Cosmetic procedures are a very personal decision, and should never be entered into lightly. There will always be a degree of risk and discomfort associated with these treatments. The good news is that women today do not have to opt for such procedures, and instead they may choose from the many effective, scientifically advanced topical treatments that are now available.
