With the wide variety of products and practices available for anti-aging skin care, you may need some guidance on where to begin. Lauren A. Daman MD, PC, a dermatologist and skin surgeon in Hartford, CT, can advise you on all your skin care questions, including those regarding collagen, Restylane®, and Botox®.

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that works with keratin to maintain skin resilience and strength. As you age, your skin weakens as collagen production decreases. Here are a few suggestions on how to care for your skin and boost its collagen, elasticity, overall fullness, and healthy glow:

  • Eat Foods That Boost Collagen: There are a variety of diet choices that naturally increase collagen, including blueberries; dark, leafy greens; and mangoes. These are all healthy foods to include in your diet anyway.
  • Apply Vitamin A: Skin products such as lotions that use retinol, which is a Vitamin A derivative, are strong collagen production boosters.
  • Try A Collagen Injection: A direct collagen injection provided by a dermatologist can touch up and smooth out areas that are becoming visibly wrinkled.
  • Use Restylane® And/Or Botox® Injections:  Much like collagen, both of these injections can do wonders for skin that may be starting to sag. Restylane® injections diminish wrinkles and add volume to sagging areas of the face. Botox® is another cosmetic injection that can improve the appearance of common lines, such as crow’s feet and frown lines.

If caring for your skin and protecting it from age and wear is important to you, Lauren A. Daman MD, PC and her team of dermatologists in the Hartford area will help you improve your skins’ elasticity and appearance by increasing the collagen in your face. They can turn back the signs of time by utilizing Botox® or Restylane® injections, providing age spot treatment, and a variety of other skin care services.
