Abstract:
A surgical method for implanting cadaver collagen for the restoration of lesions caused by the loss of collagen. The skin is perforated and a pocket is created under the skin. Human cadaver collagen is then introduced into the pocket and the skin perforation is closed. Over the next several months, the cadaver collagen is replaced by endogenous collagen.
