Collagen is the protein that plumps our skin it is the anti- aging keystone. A face full of collagen does not need Botox and because no matter how much the skin is moving it will remain smooth and have volume. Unfortunately collagen naturally starts to decrease from our mid 20’s so it is obvious that the cosmetic and cosmesceutical industries are always looking for better ways to answer the question “how do I replenish the collagen on my skin” it has been found through collagen supplements and ingesting the molecules, the elastin and hydration in the skin can be improved by 7% in eight weeks.

The reason digesting the molecule rather than topical is because the molecule is too large to be passed through the skins barrier, A popular topical treatment to replenish collagen is needling, while this does work very effectively, it should be used moderately, as over use and constant inflammation will counteract the positive effects. Too much can damage and from there lead to sagging and wrinkling of the skin.

In salon other ways to topically treat the skin is peels with the conjunction of products to use at home, we recommend Dr Aspect and M-cuetic. There is strong evidence that it stimulates fibro blast activity to produce new collagen and regenerate the outer skin.

The m-cuetic $89 for a 7 day course or the dr aspect (Australian Made) $119 for a 4-6 week supply.

Another proven way to boost collagen is with Led Light Treatment, the red Led Light energises the cells in much the same way a plant uses the suns to grow. Dr Daniel Barolet author of a study published in the journal of investigative dermatology that found pulomg Led light increases collagen and decreases collagen degrading enzymes. The patterns of pulses communicate with the skin sending messages to improve, tone reduce pore size and improve collagen, it has been documented in a test participants experienced a 50% increase in collagen after 3 treatments per week over a 4 week period. We use light stim in salon but to help constant results we have the light stim for home use. 

This LED system will be your best anti ageing friend, we promise you won’t be disappointed at only $289 with a two year warrantee- how can you go wrong!
