Here's what the experts say about it. Not only do many products contain those seller-confident claims that they can improve skin elasticity and firmness, but also attract comments from people who assure, as far as they can, that their collagen supplements have done just that. Powders and liquids seem like a tempting, easy, and sometimes even delicious way to boost the results of your skincare routine. But is the desired complexion really possible by sprinkling some magic collagen dust in your coffee? There is no doubt that collagen has its benefits, but this begs the question: Does drinking collagen or taking it as an oral supplement like collagen pills actually improve your skin? And if so, what does collagen actually do for your face? What is collagen and what is its relationship to the skin? Collagen is the main structural protein in the epidermis. Without it, the skin begins to crack, resulting in fine lines and sagging. This process is inevitable as we age because the collagen in our bodies decreases as we age, in part due to environmental factors, such as exposure to sunlight and pollution. How do you take collagen? Digestible collagen supplements, like the kind you can pour into coffee or any beverage of your choice, only started appearing a few years ago, with health brands and influencers touting powders as the new miracle cure for skin, hair, and joint health. Now there are two main types on the market which are marine collagen which is generally made from fish. And animal collagen that comes from cows and pigs where collagen is found in the bones and tissues of these animals. Collagen is formulated in powder form, while others come from ingredients as a liquid to drink. Pills and chewing gum are also common. Does drinking collagen really improve skin? Experts say it's unlikely, especially without evidence. Despite the po[CENSORED]r belief that collagen supplements can help strengthen our skin, there is not enough evidence for this really, especially since collagen is a large molecule that is digested by the intestine into smaller pieces when taken orally, so when you take powders or supplements, you do not see Our skin is the complete collagen molecule, but rather individual protein parts or amino acids. In other words, you are not reaping the full benefits of the collagen molecule because it is broken down in the body first. Additionally there is a misconception that by drinking collagen, it immediately transfers to your face and thus improves complexion. In fact, collagen doesn't know where it goes in your body. Although it is widely believed that collagen supplements can help strengthen the skin, there is not enough scientific evidence for this really. Based on expert opinions, it is clear that more scientific evidence is needed on collagen and how it benefits the skin. However, take these "benefits" with some reservations as they are ultimately just marketing claims. One thing we know for sure is that hydrolyzed collagen has antioxidant properties, so it can be beneficial, although the specific effects on the skin remain unknown. Are collagen supplements safe? Collagen supplements are likely to be safe, but instead, look for products that contain ingredients known to improve and stimulate your collagen. That's until we get more data and facts, especially traditional collagen-boosting treatments like topical retinol. Bottom line: While collagen consumption is usually safe, there is currently no sure way to know if it can strengthen and benefit the skin until more confirmed clinical evidence is done. We recommend that you speak to your dermatologist to see if you should start incorporating retinol products into your skincare routine. Especially since retinol has been proven to help smooth fine lines and remove cracks. More:
