It’s essential to boost collagen to achieve plump and youthful looking skin. Unfortunately, around the age of 30, our collagen levels start to rapidly decline. Because of this, we start to see fine lines and wrinkles and dry and uneven skin texture which get worse over time if left untreated.
Thankfully, we now have a range of ways to stimulate new collagen production to keep your complexion looking youthful and refreshed. Here are some of our faves:
1. Collagen Boost
Collagen Boost is a treatment that involves placing smooth, absorbable PDO smooth threads underneath your skin. These threads contain a biodegradable polymer that stimulates and accelerate the production of your own collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. This delivers long-term benefits to your skin including strengthening, tightening and plumping, while reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Because it stimluates collagen production, it’s ideal for strengthening sagging skin, improving visible scarring, and providing a natural brightness and glow that lasts for up to 12 months.
2. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP is also known as our vegan facial. This is because it’s a totally natural treatment that uses your own blood to stimulate collagen production. It works by drawing some of your blood which is then spun in a centrifuge to separate out the platelet rich plasma component. We then inject or needle this component into your skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Ideal for minimising fine lines, brightening skin tone and smoothing skin texture, results are long-lasting if regular treatments are maintained.
3. Skin needling
Skin needling creates tiny channels in the deeper layers of your skin by penetrating the top layer of skin with tiny micro-needles. By doing this, it triggers the body’s natural healing response, stimulating new collagen and elastin formation. This works to plump out fine lines, enlarged pores and even scarring to reveal a smooth and refined skin texture. Ideal for minimising the first signs of ageing, results are visible after six weeks and are long-lasting if regular treatments are maintained.
