Collagen Stimulation to Acheive Your Ultimate Goal
Collagen stimulation should be the ultimate goal of any anti-aging cream. Using collagens or elastin as an ingredient does not stimulate the production of new cells or fibers. Yet, those are the ingredients that are highly promoted by cosmetic companies.
They want us to believe that those ingredients can help. They also want us to think that they are new, when in fact cosmetic companies have been using them for over forty years. Basically, they are gelatin, something that's been around for as long as I can remember.
Did someone discover that it had new properties or unknown benefits? No. It's just an advertising ploy.
Most people know by now that the production of new cells and fibers slow down with age. They have also heard about collagen injections that make wrinkles disappear. In order to capitalize on all of this, cosmetic companies stopped calling their ingredients gelatin and started calling them collagens or elastin. They don't work for collagen stimulation or anything else.
There is a natural substance that has been shown in clinical trials to increase the production of new cells by as much as 160% in as little as three days. More new cells mean more new fibers, as they secrete pro-collagen molecules, which bundle together with other proteins to form the fibers. That substance is called Functional Keratin.
There is another natural substance that has been shown to increase the amount of pro-collagen present in the skin's layers. Without pro-collagen, the fibers cannot be formed. The substance that has been shown to increase the amount of pro-collagen in the skin is avocado oil.
Avocado oil is made from the pulp that surrounds the pit. It has been used for centuries to heal skin irritations and as a moisturizer. Only recently have we been able to measure things like collagen stimulation and cellular reproduction. So, now we not only know that it works, we know why.
Functional Keratin is a new development. Researchers in New Zealand found a way to extract the protein from sheep's wool. It is identical to the keratin that makes up the skin's outermost layers.
Because it is a new discovery, researchers have conducted numerous trials to insure its safety and its effectiveness. They found that creams containing it increase the skin's moisture content by over 20%, improve firmness by over 40%, reduce inflammation by as much as 60% and it has antioxidant activity, too.
Collagen stimulation is not very beneficial if free radical molecules continue to damage the fibers. Increased cell production is not important, if the cell's DNA has been damaged by free radicals. Antioxidants are our natural defense against this kind of damage.
The best anti-aging creams and lotions contain a variety of antioxidants, including Functional Keratin, coenzyme Q10, natural vitamin E and plant extracts that provide vitamin A. It is believed that free radical damage is primarily responsible for all of the signs of aging. So, if you use the right creams, you can get collagen stimulation and antioxidant protection, all at the same time.
