7 Derm-Approved Ways To Boost Collagen! | Dr. Shereene Idriss

[@afirewasinmyhead]

Cheat sheet for my fellow skin nerds! 🤓 *What causes collagen loss?* - aging - sun exposure - unhealthy lifestyle (ex. smoking, over drinking, excessive sugar) - hormonal changes (ex. menopause) - poor diet/nutritional deficiencies (ex. zinc deficiency) - chronic health conditions (ex. EDS, diabetes) *How to boost collagen:* - eat collagen-boosting foods (ex. foods high in antioxidants, vitamin C and omegas) - sun protection - collagen-boosting skincare ingredients (retinoids, peptides, copper peptides, vitamin C, vitamin E, niacinamide, CoQ10) - micro-needling (done professionally) - red light therapy - healthy lifestyle (i.e. treats in moderation, cardio and strength-training, adequate sleep)

I got diagnosed with IBD this month and it has forced me to cut off all sugar, processed carbs, and gluten. I have been eating a lot of salmon, berries, kale, avocado, macadamia nuts, sweet potatoes, etc. Already I have seen a difference in my skin even though that was never the goal. Diet is SUPER important.

I'm in the same boat. I was eating terrible before gut issues. Lots of sugar and carbs. i noticed myself looking really haggard around 31 or 32. I developed gut issues and went on an elimination diet of mostly animal foods and a few select low irritation plants. A few months later i noticed the difference in my skin. The wrinkles i was getting softened and i started getting carded again on the rare occasions i buy wine lol. I'm 38 now, no wrinkles, and still get people telling me they thought for sure i was underage

[@lavenderrobins9254]

I feel sad about people in their 40s talking about being comfortable with aging. They have no idea what's coming once they hit their 60s. Enjoy your youth while you still have it. Btw - I look good for my age and have been told I look ten years younger. I’ve been on HRT since I entered postmenopause 10 years ago. I do a lot of yoga, eat well, have a job I love, a wonderful family and friends. But it gets harder and harder as your body continues to break down. It’s a fact. So, as I said, enjoy your youth.

[@vbiddy]

Having a menstrual cycle for decades wasn't a joyride for me. Menopause often is portrayed as doom and gloom. I am learning to embrace aging. I feel more confident in my 40s, aware and take better care of myself. With age, comes wisdom. I can't control the future, but I can make smarter choices each day that will support my mind and body. I personally add Vital marine collagen to my protein shakes, and it works for me, in addition I add maca, moringa, mushroom master blend, l-lysine, vitamin c and d3/k2 and feel balanced. I would love to see more emphasis on the positive side of aging. Maybe I sound impractical, but I prefer to be optimistic.

40 is not old 😂You’re only 40 that’s why you can fantasize about ageing. Wait another 10 yrs and try again😂. Ageing is not fun, not making you any wiser, you decline so fast that you don’t want to take pictures anymore .Mental decline is the worst … focus, sharpness all gone . Instead of” embracing” it, (that sounds cute but not realistic) better prepare yourself, be one step ahead of it , read and educate yourself how to manage the decline bc it’s coming and it’s not something to embrace .👍

I had to find this on my own but people, if you take supplements for collagen (like powdered peptides) DON'T forget to take lysine supplements too. It's crucial in helping build collagen.

I notice a massive difference in my skin when I eat chicken soup regularly. I think the collagen-boosting factor is present in the part of the soup that seems to be thicker, glossy, and even a bit slimy. So you don't want to skim the soup too much.

Just to drive home the point about sun damage: I was bedridden for the better part of 10+ years, from around age 15-25 and even spending most of my late 20’s inside as well. I’ll be 38 next week and most people I encounter can’t believe my age because I have very little sun damage. I’m also very religious about sunscreen as melanoma runs in my family and I want to make sure I keep my skin as healthy as possible! Thank you for all the great tips. I also have Ehler’s-Danlos Syndrome and have been doing a lot of research into collagen depletion and supplementation. I’d be interested to know more about the different types of collagen from a dermatological standpoint.

@cherrycoke3254 I'm not a doctor. However, I would imagine that so long as you have nothing/don't take meds for which it's contraindicated that it wouldn't hurt you. Obviously, be careful and have your epi nearby if you try it in case it triggers your mcas. I suggest getting bood work done to see if you're deficient before taking any vitamins. If you take electrolytes, monitor for symptoms of them being too high/low as that can quickly become a life-threatening emergency.

Dear Doctor, I greatly enjoyed this video through which I discovered you. The content is interesting, but I must comment on a particularly important point for me. For about 15 to 20 years, I have suffered from patellar osteoarthritis, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and rosacea. Having noticed the limitations of the treatments offered, I decided to try some dietary supplements, including collagen. Several American doctors explain that hydrolyzed collagen peptides should be used, which I did. While I wanted to see if it had an impact on my dermatological diseases, I was surprised to find that nothing had happened to my skin. For me, it is therefore not dermatologically effective. On the other hand, I had a very big and pleasant surprise: after about two months of taking 10g of hydrolyzed collagen peptides daily, I notice that my knees are much better, to the point that it completely changes the way I bend my knees and get up. Now, my knees are 95% operational in almost all circumstances. To check if it was indeed due to the collagen or something else, I stopped taking collagen. After 2 to 3 months, my knees returned to their initial state, the one that has been causing me pain for 20 years. After reaching this low point, I started taking my daily 10g of collagen again. After about 1.5 months, the effects of the collagen are felt again, and now, my knees are 99% operational as I have maintained the collagen intake for over 6 months. I am a man, French, of Italian origin, I am 58 years old, I have been athletic and careful about my health always. This is my testimony. Thank you so much for your KZbin channel and your educational approach .

[@carolallison9685]

I worked in medical research, and the issue is that it's hard to find bioactive collagen and thats what you need to see any kind of results. Verisol is a bioactive form of collagen that was shown in studies to improve both wrinkles and cellulite. It was also shown to be found in the skin within 30 minutes after taking it. It's pricey, but you also only need 5g a day instead of 20g. I use one by vital proteins that also contains probios and vitamin c. Its expensive, and the webset seems to always be out, but my cellulite (which has always been a huge problem my whole life) is almost gone, and im starting to notice improvements in my wrinkles, but that took far longer than the cellulite on my legs. I also already used retinal and eat healthy and lift weights, so i already looked pretty good for 40, but since introducing the new collagen, I've seen an improvement. I was using just regular collagen, and it didn't do a dang thing, but switching to verisol has definitely helped. Its not dramatic, like i dont look 22 lol, but i look hot for 40 and still get looks from 25 year old guys, so im ok with that. My husband, maybe not so much 😂.

I looked up that collagen and couldn’t find it? Do u have a link?

I have a friend who drinks heavily and chain smokes and she is 39 and her skin looks ✨ fantastic ✨ Which is to say, I think it’s all genetics, not what you consume.

[@janigirl2296]

Interesting

[@skiyogagirl]

Well she may not be stressed and she may sleep great! 2 other factors! But yes, genetics are very important!

Genetics creates an interval, different for everyone in my opinion. Diet, care, external factors etc are what moves you within that interval.

[@sS-dh4ms]

Best things are :first, good diets-foods including fasting, knowing moderation and fasting. Second thing is exercising and third, sleeping, resting, meditation and managing stress levels..

Glad you mentioned Q10, I tried it by chance a Q10 eye cream and was really surprised but since it's not really much talked about I thought the goodness was due to the glycerine in the cream (second ingredient after aqua)...

I don’t know. There is definitely a difference in my skin when I have my collagen supplement and when I don’t have it for a while.

Can you please make a video on what supplements can be good for overall health/skin/hair.. slow down hair greying etc

Dr Dray has great videos on that if you are interested

I love your Sun Goddess like theme! I was the darkest tannest white boy there was for 30 years! I'm the whitest old man I know! But you keep preaching! Although I don't think anyone with any sense thinks it's preaching, especially from you! I really wish I lived in NYC, I'd be in heaven with you as my dermatologist!

Quick question….are growth factors any good for collagen production ,anti-aging etc? Thank you Shereene 🌺

[@amyherr9018]

I love this transparency!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

[@gimatrojillo6439]

Thanks for a very nice explanation. I have been watching a lot of videos regarding collagen and you’re the only one explain it in layman’s term. I enjoy watching your videos because you are educating us too at the same time.

[@doriyailieva5842]

Hi, Dr Idriss, I just love your videos! They make my day! I am a medical doctor myself (not a dermatologist) and I would really love if you can make a video or share at least here in the comments your opinion about DMAE in skincare. Are there enough studies and evidence it is worth including in our skincare routine? Thank you so much in advance! ❤

My Dad is 80 and collagen powder is working on his paper thin skin. In just 2 months the Elasticity in his skin has dramatically changed. If he noticed it, it’s working. We’ve tried several brands and Native Path is my favorite.

[@angelmoon2106]

Is native path the collagen that improved his skin?

[@Texasgirl10]

@@angelmoon2106 yes, I’m amazed actually

I feel supplements do work because I get more energy by taking collagen and it helps in healing as well especially after intense workout.

[@sjkcmd]

Collagen does help my nails. I even tried having the dose and had more breakage. Don't see a skin difference. Does help my post surgery joints. Usually use verisol. This isn't instead of all the things Dr Idriss does, which i try to incorporate in my life, but somehow in my 70s my nails seem to need an extra boost.

[@sjkcmd]

Verisol is the name of a particular collagen product that is used by several brands. I use Sparkle boost plus, but vital proteins professional line also uses it.

I'm 59… collagen has helped me so much!! my nails, my hair my skin my joints are so much better since I started taking it about six months ago. My nails are super hard now my hair seems like it’s coming in thicker.

[@bloomy91]

Which brand are you using ??

[@Katepwe]

I would disagree. Menopause for lots of women, me included, can be extremely hard and crazy with lots of very uncomfortable symptoms no matter how much you tell yourself it’s not bad.

I use collagen powder in my post workout shake along with protein powder, fruits, and spinach and I feel like it helps me so much. I notice it in my hair growth and my nails. I don't 100% believe it is the holy grail but I still add it to my diet since I workout 5-6 days a week in a bodybuilding workout split so I need to eat 145 grams of protein each day to maintain/build muscle. However I still use my vitamin C serum, daily moisturizer that has niacinamide, and sunscreen during the day, and at night my tretinoin cream along with my regular moisturizer. I also do Dysport on my frown lines and fillers in my smile lines. Prevention is key.

[@allysonbergman1303]

It's the "other" stuff in your protein shake which is likely making the improvements in your hair/nails .. fruits, veggies and protein are all good for that 😊

[@jmomlopez]

@allysonbergman1303 I've been eating healthy and lifting weights for almost 13 yrs now, and it wasn't until I added the collagen powder to my diet that I noticed the difference. Like I said I don't know if that's what's making the difference but considering the fact that it adds an extra 11grams of protein and "might" help my joints since I lift a lot of weight at the gym then why not. 🤷🏼‍♀️
