What is Collagen and Why Do We Need it To Look Young?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. It acts as a building block and holds everything together.
Collagen can be found in nearly every part of your body, including your:
- Muscles
- Bones
- Tendons
- Skin
Collagen has different functions depending on where it is located. In your skin, collagen helps prevent wrinkles and lines from forming. This essential protein gives your skin strength and elasticity, allowing it to look smooth and youthful.
Your body naturally produces its own collagen. Unfortunately, collagen production decreases with age. Some studies suggest that collagen begins to deplete as early as the age of 20.
Over time, you may notice that your skin is not as bouncy and resilient as it once was. As your skin’s collagen structure beings to weaken, wrinkles and lines may appear. Thankfully, Radiesse injections can stimulate the production of new collagen.
