ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method of rejuvenating human skin by implanting a sheet formed of a pliable biocompatible material beneath the skin surface so as to generate a substantially smooth layer that augments a thickness of the skin portion. The biocompatible sheet has preferably a thickness sufficient for substantially camouflaging the underlying anatomical structure (e.g., veins and tendons).
