Collagen Banking
Think of collagen banking as building and protecting a healthy ‘scaffold’ in your skin over years, not just chasing a quick glow. The goal is to slow collagen loss, improve new collagen quality, and keep the dermis strong. Lifestyle, sun protection, skincare, and technologies like IPL, RF, microneedling, and nano RF all play a role in maintaining your skin’s structure and resilience as you age.

What can be done to slow the ageing process?
We start losing collagen from the age of 20, starting the creation of lines and wrinkles. Healthy skin reflects overall health, and poor nutrition can contribute to factors that accelerate skin ageing.Environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation, pollution, nutrition and stress, play a key role in the way we age. Research also suggests that a diet rich in sugar contributes to the loss of collagen in the tissues as the result of a process known as glycation, which can destroy collagen. Smoking kills vitamin C and in turn damages collagen.
