Young + Collagen & Q10

Why do you need this product?

• The functioning of the skin and its attractiveness are fundamentally dependent on its nutritional status.
• These oral supplements complement classical cosmetic treatments and are formulated with those nutrients and/or functional ingredients which, on the one hand, are linked to the maintenance and integrity of the skin and, on the other hand, are linked to the prevention of photo-ageing caused by UV radiation.
• To have a good appearance and texture, the skin must be hydrated, but this means that it must be able to retain the liquids, especially water, that we ingest to hydrate it, if it does not, we will not be able to see the radiant appearance we expect in a young skin.
• The general wellbeing of the organism is also reflected in the skin and therefore, although not directly, a good supply of vitamins, especially water-soluble vitamins and minerals, gives the skin a better appearance.
• This appearance is determined by colour, texture and physiological properties such as elasticity, hydration, perspiration and sebaceous production.
• Over the years, the skin's appearance declines, especially due to reduced collagen cementation, wrinkles, sagging, laxity, atrophy, irregular pigmentation and dryness, where nutrition, nutrients and bioactive compounds come into play.
• The skin is continually exposed to both internal and external aggressions, the latter being perhaps the ones most associated with skin deterioration.

What is collagen used for?

Collagen and elastin are proteins that provide integrity and elasticity to the skin. Without these molecules, our skin would not be able to stretch when we bend over, nor return to its position when we straighten up. They combine into fibres in the dermis to facilitate movement.

In ageing, as is well known, the skin loses elasticity and tone, as some of the elastin-containing fibres disappear and the skin usually looks wrinkled.

What is Hyaluronic Acid used for?

The role of carbohydrates in skin integrity is mainly centred on hyaluronic acid, which plays a determining role in the beauty, tone and integrity of the skin.

The fundamental property of hyaluronic acid is that it captures and retains water in its structure, thus maintaining the water balance in the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is lost during ageing, which leads to a loss of water in the dermis and, logically, a loss of tone and an increase in wrinkles.

What is Coenzyme Q10 for?

Q10 is a potent antioxidant, and its mechanism of action is also the regeneration of vitamin E.

Q10 acts by amplifying the effect of vitamin E and would act by preventing the pro-oxidant effect of vitamin E, together with ascorbic acid.

Ageing is associated with an increase in membrane permeability, which allows Q10 to oxidise.

What about Zinc?

Zinc deficiency occurs in patients with stress, trauma, hormonal changes and the presence of cytokines (inflammation modulators).

It contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, skin, hair and nails, as well as to the process of cell division and normal protein synthesis.

There are multiple studies using chemical forms of zinc in acne therapy.

Together with vitamins C and E, it contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage.
