"Come on, let's find out if collagen skincare is really effective in taking care of the skin!"
Collagen is a protein that helps form flexible and structural fibers in various body tissues such as skin, tendons, bones, ligaments, and muscles. In the skin, collagen plays a role in maintaining its firmness and elasticity. However, as age increases, collagen production tends to decrease. To address the decrease in collagen production, many skin care products on the market contain collagen, with the aim of restoring lost collagen. However, the effectiveness of these products in replacing the function of collagen in the body still raises many questions.
Several studies have shown that the use of collagen supplements can improve skin elasticity by restoring collagen in the middle layer of the skin. However, the benefits of topical collagen in skincare products are not fully clear or well-documented. The use of topical collagen tends to be more helpful in increasing skin hydration to prevent excessive moisture loss.
The decrease in skin elasticity and collagen production generally occurs in the dermis layer and deeper adipose tissue. Skin care products containing collagen topically have not been proven to reach these layers and stimulate collagen production.
There are various types of skin care products that contain collagen, such as serums, moisturizers, eye creams, and masks. When choosing collagen skin care products, it is recommended to look for products that contain hydrolyzed collagen, amino acids, or collagen peptides because of their optimal absorption ability.
Until now, no research has found any negative side effects of using topical collagen as a skin care product. However, like with other new skin care products, there is a possibility of skin reactions, including a rash commonly referred to as allergic contact dermatitis.
In addition to using collagen-based skin care, there are still several ways to stimulate natural collagen production in the body. Some of them are: Consuming foods rich in collagen, amino acids, and vitamin C. Using sunscreen with at least SPF 30 regularly. Avoiding smoking. Undergoing microneedling treatment.
