How Collagen Injectables Rebuild The Skin’s Elasticity

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body that plays a crucial role in maintaining the skin’s structure, firmness, and elasticity. It serves as a foundational element that provides strength and support to the skin, giving it its firm and supple appearance. Additionally, collagen contributes to skin elasticity, allowing it to bounce back after stretching.

However, as we age, the natural production of collagen declines and leads to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin¹. External factors such as lifestyle habits, pollution, and sun exposure can further accelerate collagen depletion, hastening the visible signs of ageing.

But in recent years, collagen injectables have gained popularity as a non-surgical option for combating the signs of ageing. These injectables typically contain collagen derived from various sources², such as porcine, bovine, or human-derived collagen. When injected into the skin, collagen fillers replenish lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and restore elasticity, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance³.

A key advantage of collagen injectables is their ability to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. By introducing exogenous collagen into the skin, these injectables trigger a cascade of biochemical reactions that promote collagen production, leading to long-term improvements in skin texture and elasticity.

How collagen injectables rebuild elasticity

Collagen injectables work³ by filling in wrinkles and volumising areas of the face that have lost elasticity due to collagen depletion. When injected into the skin, collagen fillers integrate with the body’s natural collagen network, providing structural support and promoting tissue regeneration. Over time, the injected collagen stimulates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production, leading to increased collagen production and improved skin elasticity.

Additionally, collagen injectables can enhance hydration levels in the skin, further boosting its elasticity and suppleness. By restoring the skin’s natural moisture barrier, collagen fillers help lock in moisture and prevent transepidermal water loss, a common cause of dryness and dullness.

Among the various collagen-based treatments available, Deusaderm collagen injectables are an option for individuals considering skin rejuvenation. Formulated with lab-processed porcine collagen, the injectables aim to support the skin’s natural elasticity and enhance its overall appearance.

The formulation of Deusaderm collagen injectables are designed to promote absorption, helping to stimulate collagen production for gradual yet sustained improvements. This process contributes to a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss.

Observed Benefits of collagen injectables

Volumising effects: Provides visible reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Long-term skin improvement: Supports natural collagen production, and contributes to sustained enhancements in skin elasticity and texture over time.
Natural-looking outcomes: Enhances facial contours while maintaining natural facial expressions.
Minimal downtime:Typically requires minimal downtime, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities shortly after treatment.
Brightening effects:Collagen peptides break down into amino acids that helps regulate melanin production, which leads to improvements in pigmentary concerns such as melasma.

Conclusion

Collagen injectables are a notable development in aesthetic treatments, offering a non-surgical approach to addressing signs of ageing. These treatments help to improve skin elasticity and hydration while supporting the skin’s natural collagen production. As a minimally invasive option, collagen injectables have gained attention for their potential to replenish lost volume and enhance skin’s appearance.

For those considering collagen injectables, they are available at Angeline Yong Dermatology. Our dermatology clinic, under the care of Dr Angeline Yong, a board-certified dermatologist, provides personalised treatment approaches to address individual skin concerns.

Patients interested in learning more about collagen injectables or exploring treatment options can schedule a consultation to discuss their suitability for the procedure.
