Repairing damaged skin and inducing collagen generation may be affected with a variety
of treatments. It is very difficult to know what treatment would be the best for
you without first consulting with a board-certified physician with the experience
and training required. Below we list a number of common skin treatments. Not all
treatments may be appropriate for your skin and may not be effective for you. A
