Collagen is the most important protein in humans. About one quarter of all protein in your body is collagen. Collagen is the main protein of connective tissue. It has great tensile strength, and is the main component of ligaments and tendons. While collagen is so important to your entire body, no where is its importance so visually prevalent than with your skin. Collagen is responsible for skin strength and elasticity. It is the principal structural protein holding the skin together. The quantity and quality of your skin’s collagen has a major role in your appearance. As we age collagen degradation spins out of control and contributes to weakening and wrinkling.
