Why we NEED collagen

Collagen is essential to overall youthful look of our younger faces. As we get old, the collagen supply decreases which can result in an increase of wrinkles and  fine lines, and decreasing smoothness and suppleness of the skin. The good news is that these signs of aging can be slowed down if your total body collagen levels can be increased. Since collagen cannot be absorbed through the skin people have turned to supplementation. The problem is the traditional sources of collagen (bovine, and porcine) were not considered to be all that well absorbed.

According to Organic Beauty and Skin, in recent times there has been an advancement in collagen supplementation with the emergence of collagen peptides (especially fish collagen peptide). Studies range in demonstration from showing increase absorption after ingestion, to other positive efficacious markers of absorption such as the synthesis of new collagen fibres, and positive effects on the skin as would be expected by an increase in collagen.

Dr. Spiller Biomimetic Skin Care Collagen Aqua Plus is a soft, moisturising emulsion with a high content of Collagen-Hydrolysate to increase elasticity and tonicity; slowing down the ageing process. Skin is nourished and refreshed for a smooth, radiant complexion. With increasing age, the content of Collagen in the connecting tissue is reduced and the remaining Collagen loses its elasticity and water absorption capacity, Collagen Aqua Plus counteracts these effects.
