Ceeflower reacted to Tomo in Collagen and BiotinYes, for the past couple of years, I always take collagen (Verisol collagen bioactive peptides, recommended by ConsumerLabs.com) in my coffee for skin elasticity and health. I am in my sixties, and I go in for Botox (forehead) but my dermatologist always comments on how I do not have any wrinkles under my eyes, nasoblasial area, and how nice my skin is.
Unfortunately, since I am at my lowest weight, I do look more haggard but there isn't much I can do with facial fat loss volume except for fillers or facelift. I opted for Sculptra since it has always given me a natural look, promotes collagen and helps with facial fat loss. It has helped a lot in the last few months. Hopefully, once my weight stabilizes, so will my skin.

Ceeflower reacted to Splenda in Collagen and BiotinI use powdered collagen every day with no dangers. I think it does help with skin elasticity -- I did it more as a preventive measure to avoid losing hair or having brittle nails.
My go-to breakfast is:
8 oz of black cold brew
1 scoop of collagen
1 scoop of unflavored whey protein powder
2-3 squirts of skinny syrup
Blend all of that together, then pour in a 12 oz premade vanilla protein shake
