Description of collagen
Collagen is a protein found in the body of all mammals (including humans), in the skin, muscles, cartilage, ligaments, tendons and bones.
It plays a crucial role in the cohesion of various tissues by ensuring resistance, regeneration and elasticity. It is therefore beneficial for the skin because it preserves its elasticity and allows the epidermis to regenerate. With age, collagen production decreases. The skin thus loses its firmness and density.
Collagen supplementation (particularly via cosmetic creams and serums) becomes necessary to alleviate the inevitable effects of skin aging. This is all the more advisable, because it is difficult to obtain a sufficient quantity of collagen through diet.
