Stimulate collagen naturally before winter

Dear patients and friends,

Winter is fast approaching, and with it comes its own set of challenges for our skin: the icy wind, thermal shocks, and the dry air from indoor heating all put our skin barrier to the test. Did you know that? From the age of 25, our natural production of collagen decreases by about 1 % every year. In winter, this phenomenon accelerates under the effect of cold, causing dehydration, loss of firmness and premature appearance of wrinkles.

Fortunately, it is quite possible to stimulate the production of this essential protein from the inside as well as from the outside, without going through the surgery.

3 shocking figures that prove that action must be taken now

Melanin is the natural pigment that gives skin its color. However, under the influence of various factors, its production increases:

• -30 % % dehydration This is the loss of water that the epidermis usually suffers due to the winter cold and temperature fluctuations.
• 75 % of our dermis This is the proportion of collagen that makes up our skin, ensuring its flexibility, elasticity and resistance.
• 1 to 1.5 % % annual loss The rate of collagen degradation by our body starts in our mid-twenties, a process amplified by oxidative stress in winter.

How to boost your collagen naturally before the first injections?

1. Bet on the «pro-collagen» plate»

The beauty of the skin starts with nutrition. To produce collagen, your body needs basic building blocks:

• Vitamin C A true indispensable co-factor in the synthesis of collagen. Consume citrus fruits, kiwis, parsley and peppers.
• The amino acids Present in bone broths: fatty fish (salmon, mackerel) and eggs.
• The antioxidants To combat free radicals responsible for the destruction of collagen fibers.

2. Adopt the right cosmetic habits

As the cold season approaches, adapt your skincare routine:

• Add serums rich in peptides and in stabilized vitamin C to stimulate fibroblasts.
• Don't miss it sun protection Even in winter, UV rays penetrate through the clouds and destroy the existing collagen.

3. Give your skin a targeted care treatment

To maximize results and counteract the effects of accelerated skin aging caused by the season, non-invasive medical-aesthetic protocols (such as radiofrequency or stimulating treatments) allow for a deep revival of cellular production.
