Ocean Drive Plastic Surgery

One of our core concepts at Ocean Drive Plastic Surgery is to invest in, and improve collagen production in patient’s skin. As we age, our skin loses two of its greatest attributes: Elastin, which allows skin to be flexible, and Collagen, which allows skin to appear soft, firm, and vital. Currently, there is no surgical or nonsurgical modality that can replace the elastin in our skin. However, there are a number of therapies that we employ on a daily basis to improve collagen production. At Ocean Drive, our team of providers is prepared to provide a multitude of interventions designed to maximize your skin’s collagen production. We call these therapies “Collagen Induction Therapy”, and there are a number of different pathways that can be followed to achieve your goals. Our approach is to create the best possible plan for your individual lifestyle, your treatment goals, and as always respect how much cost and downtime you can afford. We will review these modalities in order of cost.
