Have You Ever Wondered - How Do Collagen and Elastin Work on the Skin?
However, to say the least this is misleading... people often get confused, because they want to believe applying collagen and elastin cream will increase these proteins in their skin.Unfortunately, it"s just not that easy. Manufacturers selling skin creams containing collagen are either intentionally or unintentionally misleading the public? People buy these creams believing their collagen and elastin levels will increase using these skin creams.
The fact is... collagen in a cream is not a stimulant to grow collagen. Therefore, all it is likely to do is help add some moisture to your skin.
However, collagen and elastin can be stimulated to re-grow, providing you use a stimulant capable of producing more of these protein cells.
A small company in New Zealand only a few months ago, released a new range of anti-aging, anti-wrinkle skin creams that do actually have the capacity to stimulate collagen and elastin production. They have a substance called Cynergy TK that has the patented ingredient functional keratin.
Functional keratin is a special new ingredient. This company has been able to develop a minute nano delivery system that enables keratin to be converted into functional keratin. In this form, it"s small enough to penetrate through your epidermis layer of skin to reach your collagen elastin matrix. Once there it can stimulate collagen and elastin to re-grow.
Another substance they use called Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10 a special nano-emulsion form of CoenzymeQ10. CoQ10 in this minute form is also able to get deep down into the skin to stimulate and produce more collagen and elastin proteins. It also helps rejuvenate and enhance skin cell activity.
When your own collagen level increases it causes more volume and thickness in your skin. Also as your elastin increases your skin will tighten and regain more of its elasticity. These two processes will gradually result in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.
In conclusion, hopefully now you understand the answer to how do collagen and elastin work on the skin. Don"t buy skin creams containing collagen to try and stimulate more collagen and elastin protein growth in your skin. The just won"t make any difference.
However, at my website, I discuss ingredients that do stimulate collagen and elastin re-growth, that I now chose to use on my skin every day.
