Collagen is a macromolecule… it can’t cross the dermis when applied topically, so, why would anyone want to invest in collagen skincare?

To understand the answer to this question, you need to examine collagen more closely.

The most abundant protein naturally produced in the body, collagen is a large complex protein consisting of long chains of polypeptides. It serves as the major structural protein in numerous tissues of our body, including skin, joints, blood vessels, muscles, gut tissue and dentin. As we age, our collagen production slows down.

This is where collagen-boosting skincare and pure native collagen comes in!

Collagen-boosting skincare products

Premium Swiss skincare brand Swissline, known globally as a collagen expert, offers a consumer range focusing specifically on collagen refurbishment; Cell Shock.

The products in this iconic range utilise marine collagen to smooth and plump and, most importantly, peptide technologies and plant-based growth factors to boost the skin’s own innate collagen production.

Collagen treatments with pure native collagen

Swissline also offers professional treatments, such as Le Grand Soin au Collagen Pur, which use all of the above ingredients together with an industry record-breaking amount of pure native collagen.

The face and neck films contain 92 per cent pure collagen – 97 per cent of which has an identical molecular structure to the skin’s own collagen, so crossing the dermis isn’t an issue.

In addition, patented MatriCol™ technology – clinically proven by dermatologists – offers a non-invasive refill and instant replenishment, while Swissline's Advanced Cryo-Safe™ Method ensures the bio-active collagen in the films is stabilised without preservatives and without the usage of chemical cross-linking, facilitating the total preservation of the collagen matrix and the natural potency of the bio-active ingredients.
