Topical Collagen vs. Signaling Peptides for Collagen Stimulation

Based on the available information and the previous conversation, applying collagen topically, regardless of how small the molecule is, cannot directly increase collagen under the skin. A scientifically accepted method to stimulate collagen production under the skin is by using Signaling Peptides.

Products available at MySkinRecipes that are Signaling Peptides and help stimulate collagen production include:

• Pal-GHK, Pal-GQPR (eq Matrixyl 3000): This peptide helps stimulate collagen synthesis, reduce wrinkles, increase skin elasticity, and reduce inflammation which is one cause of skin aging. It is suitable for use in anti-wrinkle and anti-aging products.
• Pep®-Coll (Palmitoyl tripeptide-5): This peptide is designed to stimulate the skin to produce collagen through natural processes. It is effective in reducing wrinkles and has been proven by research to increase collagen production and effectively reduce wrinkles.

You can choose to use these ingredients to help stimulate collagen production under the skin instead of using Micro Collagen.
