How Collagen Helps With Stretch Marks
- Collagen = Skin’s Support System
Collagen is a structural protein that keeps skin अटल, smooth, and elastic. - When the skin stretches too quickly, collagen and elastin fibers break, leaving behind visible marks.
- Increasing collagen levels helps repair damaged tissue and restore smoother texture.
How Red Light Therapy Boosts Collagen
रेड लाइट थेरेपी का उपयोग low-level red and near-infrared light (630-850nm) that penetrates the skin and stimulates माइटोकॉन्ड्रिया कोशिकाओं में. This increases एटीपी (सेलुलर ऊर्जा), which powers the body’s natural repair processes.
Key effects on collagen:
- Activates Fibroblasts → the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin.
- Increases Collagen Density → making the skin stronger and more elastic.
- Improves Circulation → delivers nutrients and oxygen to help rebuild skin tissue.
- Smooths Texture → gradually reduces the depth and visibility of stretch marks.
