| If you were anything like me, you will always try to take the easy option if at all possible. Why make life harder than it needs to be. The same applies to collagen replacement -- there's an easy way, or a more expensive and often painful option.Let's firstly look at the less desirable option.Collagen injections are often the preferred method for many people trying to replace facial collagen to remove fine lines or reduce deep wrinkles. There's no question it works and it's a quick solution. However, as always there are pluses and minuses to having this treatment.The first downside is the waste of your time and the inconvenience of traveling to the location. Then there's the initial and ongoing cost, because the treatment is only temporary and needs repeating approximately every six months.Two other issues often overlooked is the pain of inserting needles into your facial area, possible skin damage or a negative reaction to the substances being injected into your face.The final point is how the treatment affects your facial appearance. You can pretty easily tell when someone has had collagen or other substances injected to reduce their wrinkles. They go from having a few lines and wrinkles to not having any at all. This dramatic change can often be too much and look unnatural, and frankly look a bit ridiculous -- particularly if the person is middle-age or older and had some seriously deep wrinkles before.Before we consider ingredients contained in creams that do actually work, we must understand that most don't. Companies promoting creams and lotions containing collagen are misleading the public. Collagen itself can't penetrate deeply down into the dermis to stimulate collagen regrowth, because the molecules are approximately 4 times too big in diameter to fit through the outer skin layer. The other reason is collagen isn't able to stimulate and promote further collagen growth. The bottom line is don't waste money buying collagen creams.Now let's get a little more positive and discuss 2 special substances that are proven to naturally produce collagen, and even elastin for that matter.Cynergy TK"(TM)" has only recently been released onto the market and has been developed by a small New Zealand company. They have taken natural keratin and converted it into a bioactive solubilzed form called functional keratin"(TM)".Nano-Lipobelle H-EQ10 is a special type of CoenzymeQ10. Most people are aware of the ingredient CoQ10 but not many know of this special nano-emulsion" formBoth the above nano size ingredients are small enough to penetrate through the epidermis write down to the dermis where new collagen and elastin proteins cell production takes place.Make no mistake about it collagen replacement is essential as you age because your body can't make enough of it anymore to maintain a nice smooth wrinkle free complexion. It's readily available and affordable but you must select and use only the best quality natural anti-aging skin care substances, clinically proven to increase these vital proteins.Kathryn M.
