Collagen Volume Loss

Collagen is a protein that provides structure and elasticity to the skin, helping it maintain a youthful and firm appearance. As we age, the production of collagen in the skin naturally decreases, leading to a loss of firmness, elasticity, and the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.

FAQs

  • Facial volume loss, also known as age-related volume loss, refers to the gradual reduction of fat, muscle, and bone in the face over time. This can result in a sunken or hollow appearance, particularly in the cheeks, temples, under the eyes, and around the mouth, contributing to an aged or tired look.

  • Collagen is essential for maintaining the skin's firmness, elasticity, and overall structure. It helps to support the skin and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As collagen production declines with age, the skin may lose its plumpness and smoothness, leading to visible signs of ageing.

  • To boost collagen production, consider incorporating skincare products containing retinoids, peptides, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet rich in protein, vitamin C, and antioxidants, as well as protecting the skin from sun damage, can help support collagen production.

  • Common signs of facial volume loss include sunken or hollow areas in the cheeks, temples, and under the eyes, as well as a flattening or thinning of the lips. These changes can contribute to a tired or aged appearance.
