Breaking Down the Benefits of Progeline in Skincare

What is it and why should you care? We are always constantly on the look for the newest and best solution to combat the aging of our skin. Since your skin covers your body, it is vitally important to take care of it.

You want to ensure you are staying hydrated and eating a healthy, balanced diet of whole foods, and supplementing your nutrient intake where needed. But you are looking for even more solutions, and since diet and hydration does not change much, you want the newest breakthroughs for your skincare regimen. Look no further than progeline.

Progeline is a product made by Lucas Myer Cosmetics that is used as an ingredient in skincare products. It is made from water, dextran, glycerin, and trifluoroacetyl-tripeptide-2. The first three of these ingredients are moisturizers. Keeping the skin moisturized is key in maintaining health and elasticity. 

But what on earth is trifluoroacetyl-tripeptide-2? Well, first, we need to understand peptides. 

Peptides are chains of amino acids. An amino acid is the building block of protein. They are important in your diet. When it comes to skincare, they may stimulate collagen production. There are 3 peptides in trifluoroacetyl-tripeptide-2. 

Trifluoroacetyl is a gas that comes from trifluoroacetic acid. This acid is in the group of acetyl acids with all three fluorine atoms instead of hydrogen atoms. It is naturally occurring in sea water. Trifluoroacetyl is formed when the acid loses a hydroxyl group (a bonded oxygen atom and hydrogen atom). 

So, trifluoroacetyl-tripeptide-2 is a compound of fluoridated peptides that work with your skin to increase collagen. The moisturizers in Progeline are what allow you to apply the product to your skin. Moisturized skin is more likely to retain elasticity.

Progeline may reduce wrinkles and fine lines, prevent sagging, and improve elasticity in the skin. It is especially beneficial along the jawline, which is one area that seems to begin sagging the fastest. These benefits come from the way it encourages your skin to produce collagen, which is a peptide.

Collagen is extremely important for our skin and our bodies in general. Specifically, collagen is what helps your skin maintain its elasticity and have a firm, smooth appearance. Your body naturally produces collagen, but once you hit adulthood, collagen production slows. Once women get to about five years before menopause, the production of collagen slows dramatically. 

One way to increase collagen is to ingest it. You can get collagen peptide powders, liquids, pills, and other products to support your body’s collagen production as you age. It is important to find collagen products that include vitamin C and hyaluronic acid which help the collagen absorb in your body. 

You should know about the taut collagen skincare program to get the best results.

Increasing your collagen intake will benefit your skin. It will also help your hair, nails, and joints. Many people who use collagen peptides report an increase in hair and nail growth as well as a strengthening of the hair and nails. Many people also report a decrease in joint pain and an increase in mobility.

A good collagen product can start showing results in as little as two weeks. Many collagen powders can be added to coffee, smoothies, milk or non-dairy alternatives, and even baked with. You will want to ensure you check with the manufacturer for dosing information.

Another way to encourage your body to produce collagen is to boost the oxygen in your blood. You can do this with exercise. You can also do this topically in problem areas with various tools and methods.

■ Cupping

■ Dry brushing

■ Fascia blasting

■ Dermarolling

■ Massage

These methods increase blood flow in specific areas of your skin, and it is from the increased blood flow that the benefits these methods produce are seen. 

You may even find benefits just from massaging your moisturizer into your skin. It is important to remember that the skin on your face is usually more sensitive than skin elsewhere on your body.

Whatever products or methods you are using on the skin of your face, you typically want to be gentler. When it comes to the methods discussed above, there are products made specifically for the face. And when it comes to your skincare routine, you surely have a separate regimen for your face.

If you are looking to add a product to your skincare regimen to combat signs of aging, selecting a product that has Progeline may give you the results you seek. You can find it as an ingredient in eye creams, serums, and moisturizers. Often times the product may specifically state that it includes Progeline on the label.
