BEST WAYS TO BOOST YOUR
COLLAGEN AND CONFIDENCE Ageing of the skin and the deterioration of collagen is a natural, normal process of life. However, there are ways to keep skin looking healthy and youthful. Protecting and stimulating the skin’s own collagen production is the holy grail when it comes to improving elasticity, tightness, texture and tone, and there are lots of ways this can be achieved.
PREVENT SUN DAMAGE
Take care of your skin before collagen deterioration starts to take place. Sun protection against both UVA and UVB rays is critical 365 days a year, using a high factor SPF. Even in Winter you need to use sun protection of 30 SPF.
RETINOIDS, KNOWN AS VITAMIN A
Retinoids are able to minimise the appearance of wrinkles, slow the breakdown of collagen and fade pigmentation or age spots. They work by improving skin cell renewal and stimulating collagen production.
VITAMIN C, HYALURONIC ACID AND DIET
Vitamin C is needed for collagen production to provide the skin with support. It's an antioxidant, a skin-brightening agent and an anti-inflammatory, and it is also required for the synthesis of collagen. Eating a balanced diet with adequate protein – either plant based or animal – will boost collagen production.
Hyaluronic acid is an important compound for collagen in the skin. It is found in foods rich in amino acids, such as beans, root vegetables, and soy. Adding hyaluronic acid to the diet through food can easily help to boost collagen levels. Hyaluronic acid is also available as a supplement and may be found in skincare products.
COLLAGEN DRINKS AND SUPPLEMENTS
Collagen supplements including drinks such as Zenni and Skinade®, are founded on the ethos of nourishing the skin from within, based upon the science of micro nutrition and optimising not only the skin but the entire body and its systems at the cellular level.
SKIN LIFTING WITH ULTHERAPY®
Recognised as the gold standard treatment when it comes to stimulating collagen levels, Ultherapy® works to actually reawaken your collagen and elastin. At each layer, the result is a gradual lifting of the skin minimising laxity so you look fresher and more youthful. Typical treatment areas are brows, cheek area, jaw line, neck and décolletage.
SKIN TIGHTENING WITH EXILIS ELITE™
Exilis Elite™ treats sagging skin caused by collagen deterioration by applying deep heat to the skin in specific areas, triggering the body’s natural collagen producing
process which smooths out lines and wrinkles and tightens skin giving a refreshed and more youthful appearance as well as creating a more contoured body shape. This innovative radio frequency treatment is suited to both facial and body tightening.
