The Untold Secrets About Collagen Skin Care

The collagen skin care market has been getting some recent exposure by the various skincare manufacturers.

They are perpetrating one of the bigger undetected scams on the general public in recent times.

Let me explain, when you look for skincare based on collagen, this can really be one of two collagen based applications.

For instance there is the collagen skin care product which is meant to reverse the hands of time.

The other collagen application would be cosmetic surgery in the form of collagen injections.

If you get collagen injections then you will see noticeable results, no doubt, but the expense and pain need to be taken into consideration.

Not to mention collagen injections are only temporary, because eventually (usually 4 to 8 months) the collagen is absorbed back into the body and new injections will be necessary to keep the effect of the surgery maintained.

This means more money and more pain, both not the best solution.

The collagen skin care is where the scam that the skincare companies are perpetrating.  You see when we were kids our bodies produced collagen and elastin in great abundance.

Collagen and elastin are two proteins that our bodies produce to maintain our youthful and healthy skin.

Unfortunately as we age our bodies produce less and less collagen and elastin.

The skincare companies know this and bank on consumer ignorance and a ton of advertising dollars convincing you that if you are lacking something such as collagen and elastin. Then buying their products with collagen and elastin in the ingredients makes sense.

This is a logical argument except collagen in any product will be totally ineffective and a waste of money.

What the skincare companies fail to tell you is that collagen from a molecular level is to big to be absorbed by the skin, in fact even if the collagen could penetrate the skin, there would still be no benefit because the complex structure can't be replicated by our body.

The only way to reap the benefits of collagen and elastin would be to have a way to stimulate the body's own production of collagen and elastin.

Fortunately a company in New Zealand discovered a natural substance called Cynergy TK. Cynergy TK has been clinically shown to boost the bodies ability to produce collagen and elastin.

In addition to this, Cynergy TK has also been shown to retain moisture (goodbye dry skin) and actually regenerate brand new skin cells altogether.

This is fantastic news for the skincare industry but unfortunately most of the US won't ever hear about Cynergy TK since they are out of New Zealand and these companies don't have the advertising budgets of the big corporate giants.

Your next step is to do your homework and find more products that help stimulate the bodies natural production of collagen and stop wasting your money on those skincare products that have collagen in their ingredients.

I have put together my personal list of natural substances as well as my recommendation for the best product to stimulate the bodies own natural production of collagen.

Remember that getting old isn't an option but having old looking skin is now thanks to these recent discoveries that are now made available for the first time here in the US and Canada.
