The Science Behind Collagen and Effective Anti-Aging Skincare

TL;DR Summary
The effectiveness of collagen supplements for reducing skin aging is uncertain, with limited scientific evidence supporting their benefits. While some users report improvements in skin brightness, hair, and nails, experts highlight that collagen taken orally may not reach the skin directly, and topical creams are unlikely to penetrate deeply. Industry-funded studies tend to show more positive results, but overall, maintaining skin health is best achieved through sun protection, a healthy diet, and lifestyle choices rather than relying solely on supplements.
