The skin matrix is responsible for the structural integrity and resilience of the skin and its natural degradation results in many of the visible signs of aging such as fine lines, loss of elasticity and eventually, deep wrinkles.

Understanding collagen begins with knowing that it is truly the glue that holds the body together. It is the building block for all our bodys major systems and the second most common substance in the body, second only to water in terms of volume. Although abundant in our youth, the bodys natural Collagen production typically slows at a rate of 1.5% per year after the age of 25. As this collagen production slows, the collagen fibres in the body become brittle and begin to break down resulting in a weakening of the skin matrix.
