Collagen and facial skin care

Collagen and facial skin care

Collagen is the most important protein in the skin, determining its youthfulness, firmness, tone, and elasticity. About 75% of this protein is found in the skin and is its main building block. Skin with optimal collagen content appears smooth, healthy, and youthful. Unfortunately, with age, collagen synthesis naturally declines, and its metabolism slows (the breakdown of old collagen is also slowed due to reduced enzymatic activity), leading to the appearance of wrinkles, deterioration of skin tone, and facial puffiness due to decreased elasticity of the vascular walls, which also contain collagen.

What problems can collagen cosmetics solve?

Contrary to popular belief, collagen is not able to penetrate deeply into the skin. This is due to the large size of its molecule. However, it has other important properties.
Collagen has a high ability to attract moisture and retain it for a long time, providing comfortable and long-lasting skin hydration. In addition, collagen creates a breathable film that effectively prevents water loss from the skin, without having a comedogenic effect. Moreover, due to the large size of the molecule, collagen is able to instantly fill in wrinkles and quickly provide a smooth and even skin texture. Collagen also promotes effective skin regeneration and can quickly restore it in case of microdamage. This valuable ingredient is highly tolerable and suitable for use even by those with sensitive skin.
Collagen is an excellent component of cosmetics, helping to maintain the activity of other ingredients, such as peptides.

According to modern scientific data, it is recommended to think about comprehensive daily anti-aging care by the age of 30. This is due to the prevention of the aging process, which is directly related to the natural gradual decrease in collagen synthesis, as well as long-term exposure to many negative factors, such as solar radiation, pollution, chronic stress, bad habits, unbalanced diet, hyperactive facial expressions. 
At the initial signs of age-related changes, the main ones of which are a dull complexion, unusual dry skin, the first expression wrinkles, a tired appearance, puffiness or dark circles under the eyes, it is recommended to include a specialized set of products in your routine daily care.
