Collagen the substance that maintains youthfulness, the closest thing to the fountain of youth you can get your hands on. It comes in a pill form as a supplement, you can find it in face creams, actually you can find it in most products that have anything to do with anti aging skin care. As far as collagen supplements go - do they really work?, read on to see what I found out.
The use of collagen supplements became a interest to me when I begin to notice fine lines and wrinkles forming in my facial skin. I believed that these collagen supplements that I had found would cure my wrinkles and stopping any further damage to my skin.
After doing much research before I purchased these collagen supplements, I learned that collagen is a protein in our bodies that plays a important role in skin structure. As we age our bodies produce less of this protein which causes the skin to loose firmness and flexibility, resulting in wrinkles and sagging skin.
From learning about what collagen does for the skin, I thought that these collagen supplements were exactly what I needed for my skin. But after even further research I found out that due to the complex molecular structure of collagen, it cannot be absorbed into our bodies.
So whether collagen is contained in supplements or creams, it is of no use to you because it cannot be absorbed by the skin, or by the body effectively if taken in supplement form.
What I learned was that to effectively increase collagen for the purposes of skin care, you have to find a way promote to the regrowth of collagen in your body from within.
Now that you know collagen supplements or creams that contain collagen do not work, the next step is to find products that contain the effective proven ingredients that will promote the regrowth of collagen from within for effective skin care.
