What is collagen?
For those who want to look younger, it is essential to keep the cells firm and together, a function that is performed by a supporting protein called collagen.
“Collagen is a very important protein for connective tissue. This tissue is what gives structure to the cells of the epidermis and dermis. Therefore, collagen is responsible for supporting the skin,” says Dr. Mônica Aribi, dermatologist, full member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, of the Brazilian Society of Dermatological Surgery and international member of the American Academy of Dermatology.
The dermatologist Dr. Abdo Salomão, member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, adds that collagen is “synthesized by fibroblasts, skin cells responsible for its production and, in order to have its correct function, undergoes chemical reactions whose final result is its organization. in fibers “.
However, due to aging, the natural production of this protein decreases and some of what was produced is lost.
“Over time, more precisely after the age of 30, our individual capacity to produce collagen progressively decreases. This process is irreversible, but it can be mitigated or postponed through healthy habits”, explains Dr. Monica.
That said, some people are looking for other ways to recover collagen levels in the skin, as is the case with Grazi Massafera. Products, supplements and technologies are used to stimulate proteins.
