COLLAGEN BANKING – how to boost and preserve your collagen


Today, collagen serums and creams have become a hot topic. In this article, we will explore the science-backed wonders of collagen preservation with the brand-new Pro-Collagen Banking Serum>>  and take a deeper look into skincare routines and lifestyle choices, revealing secrets to maintaining that coveted plumpness. Whether you want to turn back the clock on skin ageing, or preserve your youthful radiance, Dermalogica has a solution you can bank on!


Understanding collagen


We must first understand the structure of collagen and how it interacts with our skin. Collagen a crucial protein that provides structure and elasticity, plays a key role in maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. In effect, the skins scaffolding. As we age, there is a significant decrease in our collagen production resulting in wrinkles and ‘sagging’ of the skin.


Concurrant with natural collagen degradation, which accounts for app 50% of our skins ageing, we face relentless “collagen thieves”. These are activated through sun exposure, smoking, pollution, stress, and even our diet. All of these accelerate the breakdown of collagen, hence, our skin requires solutions beyond collagen creams. Protective skincare measures such as SPF and antioxidant rich formulas, together with a mindful lifestyle are crucial for maintaining healthy collagen.


Collagen boosting formulas


Collagen molecules, by their very nature, are large, and as such, can’t effectively penetrate the skin’s outer layer, the epidermis. Therefore, while collagen creams can offer other benefits (namely, surface hydration or a temporary plumping effect), they are unable to effectively reach within the dermal layers to stimulate the skin’s own collagen synthesis. True skin health comes from supporting the skin’s natural processes with ingredients that can get where skin needs them.


This is where collagens new BFF comes in; Pro-Collagen Banking Serum. Containing a potent blend of peptides and amino acids, this serum goes thw whole nine yards, helping promote, protect, and preserve skins collagen, resulting in visibly plumper, more luminous, and hydrated skin.




If you’re already noticing signs of collagen loss in your skin and you’re seeking an extra boost, we would suggest alternate products specially designed to address more advanced skincare needs. The Skin Resurfacing Cleanser, Pro-Collagen Banking Serum and Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF 50 make the perfect trio.


Collagen boosting pro treatments

Ensure the ultimate firming results, by enhancing your at-home routine with a professional skin treatment. The Stand Out treatment for collagen banking today is obviously microneedling. Sometimes referred to as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a minimally invasive service where tiny needles create micro-channels on the skins surface. This in turn stimulates the skin to dramatically accelerate collagen production. Dermalogica’s Pro Microneedling treatment is an advanced transformative treatment, combining the power of advanced exfoliation and microneedling, offering unparalleled benefits and guaranteed results for smoother, firmer, radiant skin!
