Collagen's efficacy and role

Functions of collagen

Collagen is a kind of biopolymer. It is the most abundant and widely distributed functional protein in the human body. It is widely used in food, medicine, tissue engineering, cosmetics and other fields. On the skin, the main functions of collagen are:

First, moisturize and nourish.

Collagen contains some pure natural, clean water moisturizing factors, which can help the skin to lock in moisture, and it can also prevent the production of skin melanin, which has a certain whitening and moisturizing effect.

Second, collagen has a certain effect on skin lightening.

Collagen can speed up the metabolism of skin cells, promote the natural shedding of keratin, eliminate pigmentation, and lighten skin spots. Collagen can also adjust the endocrine function of the skin, increase the smoothness of the skin, and maintain the skin's water-oil balance.

Third, collagen has the effect of firming and anti-wrinkle.

When collagen is absorbed by the skin, it can promote the production of active skin cells, fill between the epidermis and dermis, increase the elasticity of the skin, and also repair some superficial skin. The sunken damage can improve large pores and delay the generation of wrinkles.

Fourth, collagen has certain anti-oxidation and anti-aging effects.

After collagen enters the skin, it can also remove free radicals in the body, multi-channel anti-oxidation, repair broken and aging elastic fibers, restore skin elasticity, and slow down the skin.
