Skin and Skin Aging
The major components of the dermis are collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans In addition the dermis contain fibroblast cells, macrophages and adipocytes. Rejuvenation of the skin takes place in the lower levels of the skin (dermis), while the outer layers mostly consist of dead skin cells that are gradually shed.
From the age of about 25 the body’s own ability to develop collagen starts dropping and skin rejuvenation is slowing. This results in gradual wrinkling of the skin, lack of flexibility and skin that is more prone to dry out.
Exposure to sun and wind, smoking, unhealthy eating habits and stress may speed up skin aging. Creams, ointments and other topical (non-medical) treatment may help protect the skin, but do in only few cases help against the underlying causes of skin aging. Peeling and other chemical, topical treatment may help by removing the outer layers of the skin, but do not improve the condition of the lower levels of the skin.
In order to secure healthy, beautyful skin over time, the dermal cells need replenishment of the nutrients that form their building blocks.
Skingain Efficacy Study
48 women between the age of 30 and 65 participated in a study on Skingain over 12 weeks in 2011. Collagen content in the dermis and elastisity was measured at week 0, 4, 8 and 12. Visual assessment by skin expert and pictures were taken at week 0, 8 and 12.
The measurements of skin collagen content and elasticity was conducted with DermaLab® Combo Skinlab. Dr. Roald Strand assisted the study as advisor.
Participants took 2 sachets of Skingain per day in combination with Oxytarm®
