What is COVA, the Collagen Volume Injection?

Typical filler procedures involve injecting

a gel-like substance directly under the skin to create volume.

In contrast, COVA promotes skin tissue regeneration and collagen synthesis, leading to a more natural-looking volume.

Over time after the procedure, volume can gradually improve through the skin's natural regenerative power.

With filler procedures, there is a possibility that the injected substance may clump unexpectedly or shift its position.

However, COVA is naturally absorbed and diffused within the skin tissue, which can alleviate concerns about such inconveniences.

COVA is based on PDO (Polydioxanone), a component that gradually breaks down and disappears within the body.

In areas like around the eyes or mouth,

where the skin is thin and sensitive,

filler procedures can sometimes result in the treated area being noticeable or over-corrected.

COVA can be applied relatively naturally even in these delicate areas.

With COVA, concerns about serious side effects such as vascular occlusion or embolism, which can rarely occur with filler procedures, can be reduced.

In this regard, COVA can be an alternative that reduces the burden of the procedure.

Compared to procedures like Juvelook Volume or other collagen-inducing injections,

COVA includes a physical support structure, which helps patients feel some degree of volume immediately after the procedure.
