[@daymonwilson]

What kind of growth factors?

[@Daniellemcdd]

Vital proteins do help strengthen nails, but they won't really do anything for the skin. I have tried almost everything to look younger + delay aging as much as possible, anything from face exercises, vitamin C serum, Fraxel, collagen supplements and of course Retin A (7 years straight), home devices and what not. However, nothing made any real difference compared to the high-quality derma pen I purchased for around 100 bucks. Within 3 months of use, my skin has improved DRAMATICALLY. I don't look like I'm 18 again, but definitely not 44 either. My fine lines have disappeared completely, and my nasolabial folds are way less are nonexist (Never had jowls though). People often underestimate the power of wounding and the revolutionary effects it can have on the skin and instead paying thousands of dollars for fillers, botox, etc.

[@GlennaCoye]

Shhhh...don't tell everyone! (Joking) Ive been microneedling for almost 10 years - most guess I'm @ 15 YEARS younger than my birth certificate says. I DO it myself at home, quote aggressively in places, and lightly in others,,maybe 1x month. I am 63

[@DariaHalperin-rv5cv]

+1 for kora beauticaIs. I've been doing microneedling since it started 12 or so years ago. Nobody believe I am 55. They all say I am in my 30's or early 40's. As you know, as we get old, our skin gets thinner therefore creating wrinkles. But the wounding kept my skin still thick and youthful. Your comment will help so many women to restore their skin..

I’m just being honest, I’m 38 and have always taken really good care of my skin starting at age 23. I use to get Botox but stopped. This is what I use and it works for me: 1.) healthy diet, full of protein (grass fed meat, butter) healthy fats, antioxidants 2.) exercise. I walk 30-45 mins about 5 days a week and toning exercises at home. I sometimes do hot yoga classes. 3) I use tretinoin and vitamin c. 4) I don’t tan and I use mineral sunscreen. 5) I don’t smoke anything lol and I don’t drink. 6) Supplements. I do drink collagen peptides in my coffee every morning, Nutrafol and ashwaganda. I have noticed a difference adding the collagen proteins in my coffee (I added this 4 weeks ago) People think I look 28…I’ll take it. Just sharing my advice ❤

[@morkawlanamk2319]

Thank you sooo much for sharing your tips!! I turned 26 this year, i started using retinol a year ago and i only started taking collagen now. Im blessed genetically, for example you have to be 18 to buy cigarette products and alcohol in our country, im trying to stop smoking so i switched to vaping and if i dont have my ID, nobody will sell me anything! They always shocked when i tell them that im 26. People around me used to laugh at me when i was 20 and everybody thought that i was 15, i got made fun of really bad by other woman. I still had a full on mental breakdown at my 26th birthday, i don't want to just rellie on my genetic predisposition, since i now benifit from it!

I use that particular collagen powder and I have noticed my skin is smoother and slightly more plump. Your skin is already flawless and wrinkle-free so you're likely not seeing a difference because you didn't really need it to begin with.

[@jandutton]

[@sandiees1001]

My primary doctor told me 8 months ago to start using Vital Protein collagen powder in the advance version of it, I'm 60 and I can definitely say I have seen improvement. My hair is healthier, fingernails are growing stronger, and my skin looks younger. The advance version includes Hyaluronic acid and vitamin C.

[@lianes.2701]

I swear by my Vital Proteins. My hair, skin, and nails are so much better when I use it. Tried stopping and definitely noticed a difference. Nails and hair became brittle again. I’m 62.

[@jennysvidsnsuch]

I didn't think the powder would make a difference, but after about 5 months people around me started complimenting my skin and asking what I was doing. Including people that know skin, like my tattoo artist and botox girl. I'll never be without it now

[@SaintDanielMusic]

I started using Marine Collagen from Applied Nutrition last year (it’s much cheaper than the one from Vital Proteins, I’m in the UK - not sure if it’s available in other countries) and I could see the results straight away - my hair and nails started growing at supersonic speed. Skin also improved a lot. I use one scoop a day with a glass of orange juice. Within the past 12 months this was the product helped the most, along with Vichy Lift Activ Supreme Vitamin C Brightening Serum. These two worked magic for me.

Dr. Idriss, I just want to say that I have noticed a huge improvement with my skin since I've been following your tips. I was at a point that I wanted to incorporate every single ingredient in my routine, and my skin had become a mess. Since I've found you, I've slimmed down my routine, almost completely eliminated HA, I use just a few key ingredients, the ones that I really think my skin needs and that work on my skin, and it has never looked and felt better. I'm learning so much from you and your no-nonsense approach to skincare. Thank you!

So a question - collagen supplementation has been shown to (in weaker studies but nonetheless) to promote wound healing in burn victims and elderly in nursing homes. Now, those studies compared to no intervention, when it would’ve been more interesting to compare to equal amounts of complete proteins, because we do know that good nutrition as a whole leads to wound healing, and protein calories malnutrition in particular hinders this process. It’s why surgeons love TPN so much despite it being sepsis in a bag. That said, do you know if there is any data of a high protein diet leading to improved skin from an aging standpoint, not the fancy collagens (hydrolyzed or whatever they advertise), but overall high protein diet of complete protein sources? Love your videos. You’re so good at educating people about skin care. I got my mom watching you and she recently bought your major fade moisturizer, and is in love. I’m planning to get it once I use up my current stuff.

[@emilyb5557]

Sepsis in a bag 😅 what a phrase. Nursing home residents often are pretty malnourished and Burns victims are loosing extra protein if they have large wounds so often have low albumin. So I'm guessing both benefit from any amino acid source.

Ok. So I’ve heard at least a few dermatologists say that Collagen supplements are quite effective. But they also said that the collagen should be 1) Hydrolyzed and 2) Contain peptic acids; and 3) grass fed. They have also said that we are wasting our time with topical collagen creams because the collagen isn’t small enough to penetrate the cells. I am paraphrasing because I don’t speak doctor. Lol. Would love to hear your take on this though.

Gosh now I need to know how to use this in order and which days etc. A routine but for this video. Sunscreen every day I get, but what about using everything every day? An example. Can I use retinoids, peptides, glycolic acid , niacinamide and red light therapy at the same time? Same day? In what order. Dr. Idriss Haaaalllpppp!

@shereeneidriss That collegen your using I believe only has type 1,2,3 collegen I believe youll see much better results if you use the sprouts brand collegen with mct. Not sure by what mechanisms it works but you want a collegen that has type 1,2,3,4,5 collegen and the source of the collagen matters too. Marine vs bovine vs vegan. Anyways try the sprouts brand it's cost effective and on sale often

I loved the analogy to filet mignon. It made perfect sense! Well done. (I like mine rare) 😊

I love Isdin Eryfotona Ageless . That’s my go to sunscreen, specially if I don’t wear makeup, your skin looks flawless with this sunscreen.

[@LisaNix2]

Same for me!

[@leslierosa9102]

Do you use the tint one or the white clear ? And if you use the tint do you like it ?

[@LisaNix2]

@@leslierosa9102 I use tinted and I no longer need foundation.

[@milyabrams4]

@@leslierosa9102 I use the tint one and I absolutely love it. It doesn’t feel heavy or tacky and it gives you a nice look. I was never heavy on makeup, I would use some foundation here and there but since I have been using this sunscreen I don’t use foundation for work anymore

Thank you so much for another great video. I’v learned so much from you! ❤

[@delanahealey4862]

Fantastic video as usual. Thank you. Hi from Western Australia. ❤❤😊

[@minhnguyen-lk2ym]

The reason the collagen peptides dont seem to make a difference for you is because your skin is already perfection and stunning... I'm not sure how much more you can climb if you're already at the peak of mt. Everest lol

Hi Dr. Idriss, can you do a video/shorts on the difference in using LED panel vs mask.. ? Having a panel can have more benefits on the skin since it covers more body surface? Also, curious if it is a LED panel in the background? I like the bathroom as backdrop since it’s much brighter! 😊

[@AllisonNash-gc9eb]

Looks like maybe an air purifier? Cool looking one if it is.

[@oceaneo4603]

😳 ! I watching your video while doing my night time routine, was about to put the Vichy Collagen cream, when you talked and showed the L'Oreal one. The timing was so perfect. 😂 I learn a lot with your videos, as usual. Thanks dr. Idriss. 😊

Thank you for this fantastic video!🎉🎉

I’d love a video on topical estrogen and your thoughts on it.

[@lah007743]

I'd love to see a video about Phytoceramides.

[@clairestz1328]

Such a great video, thank you Dr Idriss! I think my skin is reacting badly to retinol at the moment, but I would love a follow-up video on how to combine the products that are right for your skin.

[@laurab8450]

Thank you, Dr. Idriss, collagen is such an important topic as we age. I take the powder & see a tremendous difference in my finger nails.

[@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep]

Forget collagen for skin, it's just an amazing protein powder in and of itself the amino acid profile is great and it doesn't have the hormones or calcium like whey, lots of glycine is amazing dissolves well and virtually no taste. Lysine and vitamin c are the supplements for actually producing collagen, but are actually extremely healthy all around and more important than the collagen in your skin but for your arteries to prevent heart disease better skin is just bonus. They both do a lot more too and are very safe and cheap.

[@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep]

Also side note for those that come across it, it may sound like a good idea to take ceramide supplements but internal use was associated with heart disease. A better option 10mg Octacosanol taken a day as a supplement was shown to increase skin hydration by 20-40% after 2 months and it's fairly cheap and is good for the heart and brain.

Switch to monk fruit sweetener everybody. Ditch the sugar.. it’s very inflammatory.
