Collagen Supplements – Are They Worth The Hype?

Collagen, often referred to as the body’s “building blocks,” is a remarkable protein that holds a vital role in maintaining the structure and health of various tissues and organs. With its abundance in the body, collagen supports everything from skin elasticity to joint flexibility. In recent years, collagen supplements have gained significant attention for their potential to boost collagen levels and enhance skin, hair, joint, and bone health. In this article, we’ll delve into the different types of collagen and their benefits, helping you make informed decisions about choosing the right collagen supplement for your needs.

Understanding the Types of Collagen

Collagen comes in various types, each with specific roles and functions within the body. The most prevalent types of collagen are types I, II, and III, each catering to different areas of wellness.

Type I Collagen

Type I collagen is the most abundant in the body and plays a significant role in maintaining the integrity of the skin, tendons, bones, ligaments, and connective tissues. This collagen type is often derived from cows and can be found in both grass-fed bovine and marine collagen supplements. Its presence in the skin is particularly crucial, as it contributes to the skin’s pliability and youthful appearance.

Studies have shown that oral supplementation with hydrolysed type I collagen can lead to smoother facial lines and wrinkles, as well as improved skin moisture levels. While the benefits of ingesting collagen type I are clear for skin health, its impact on wound healing when taken orally requires further investigation.

Type II Collagen

Type II collagen is primarily found in cartilage, bones, and other connective tissues. This type of collagen is sourced from animals like chickens and cows and is utilized to support joint health. Though it may not have a pronounced impact on skin health, type II collagen could potentially help manage pain and swelling, particularly related to joint conditions like osteoarthritis.

Type II collagen is less prevalent in collagen supplements compared to type I, making it an option for those specifically seeking joint support. It’s important to note that type II collagen is present in marine collagen but not in grass-fed bovine collagen supplements.

Type III Collagen

Type III collagen works in tandem with type I collagen to maintain skin health, elasticity, and joint function. Unlike marine collagen, grass-fed bovine collagen contains type III collagen, making it an appealing choice for individuals looking to promote healthy skin and overall vitality. Research suggests that type III collagen may play a significant role in skin aging, as its content decreases with age. This type of collagen is crucial for fibroblast function, which, in turn, contributes to collagen and elastin production, thus supporting wound healing and skin health.

Choosing the Right Collagen Supplement

When selecting a collagen supplement, it’s essential to consider your specific health goals and requirements. Here are some key points to keep in mind:

  1. Type of Collagen: Identify the type of collagen that aligns with your needs. For skin health and overall well-being, both type I and type III collagens are essential. For joint support, consider collagen supplements containing type II collagen.
  2. Source: Determine whether you prefer marine collagen (sourced from fish) or grass-fed bovine collagen (sourced from cows). Each source has its benefits, so choose based on your dietary preferences and needs.
  3. Quality: Look for reputable brands that provide high-quality collagen supplements. Opt for products that have undergone testing for purity and potency.
  4. Form: Collagen supplements are available in various forms, including powders, capsules, and gummies. Choose the form that suits your convenience and lifestyle.
  5. Additional Ingredients: Some collagen supplements may include additional ingredients like vitamins, minerals, or antioxidants. Assess whether these additives align with your overall health goals.

In summation, collagen supplements offer a convenient and promising way to support skin, hair, joint, and bone health. With different types of collagen catering to various aspects of wellness, understanding your individual needs is key to selecting the right supplement. Whether you’re looking to enhance skin elasticity, manage joint discomfort, or promote overall vitality, the world of collagen supplements holds a wealth of possibilities to explore and incorporate into your wellness journey. Always consult a healthcare professional before making any significant changes to your supplement regime.

How to Avoid ISO Skin

Iso skin is the real deal! As our world has turned upside down in the last few weeks, it’s important not to leave your skin care behind.

It’s now week 5 of self-isolation, so any slacking off should be over! Yes, we’ve all been guilty of overindulging in sugary food, alcohol, and countless hours of Netflix binging, however it’s important to keep some structure and routine in your life for both physical and mental health, as well as the health of your skin.

Now is not the time to let your skin go!

1. Consistency is key!

Don’t get slack with your morning and evening skincare routine.

Like with exercise, progress doesn’t happen overnight. For visible results or even to maintain a healthy glowing complexion, your skin requires consistency. Cleansing, applying SPF, and moisturising are everyday essentials.

2. Don’t forgo the sunscreen


Being inside doesn’t mean that you’re off the hook and can skip the sunscreen. In fact, UVA light (PRESENT WITHOUT SUNSHINE) can penetrate right through window glass, which means that you still are at risk for premature aging and skin cancers. UVB rays can also penetrate through glass, which also contributes to aging of the skin.

3. At-home facial

I would encourage people to do an at home facial, at least once a week.  It will help to decongest the pores, improve circulation, remove excess dead skin cells and support the skin with beneficial nutrients like vitamins, proteins, minerals and antioxidants.

In this order: Double cleanse, exfoliate, mask, serum, moisturise
If you are missing a steam facial:
Fill a bowl with hot water and position your face over the bowl with a towel over your head to let your skin open up – you would do this after cleansing!

Tip – Massage in finishing products:
Give yourself a facial massage to boost blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. It is important to use very hydrating, rich ingredients as the skin is massaged – begin at the chin and gently stroke outward. Follow a similar pattern on all areas of the face: remember always up and out with your movements!
And –  NO at home extractions pretty please!!!

4. Nourish from the inside out

So, we nourish our skin not only topically, but also from the inside out. This can for some people be the most important way to keep their skin healthy as gut related issues can cause havoc on our skin. During stressful times we are often prone to eating more comfort foods.
Try avoiding heavily processed foods and strong dairy products as this can congest our skin. People suffering from breakouts should look at limiting sugary, starchy foods. Look instead at having lots of leafy greens, good fats such as avocados – I mean who isn’t a sucker for eggs and avo toast?? Adding things like chilli flakes and pepper to that takes it up a notch and chilli flakes are anti-inflammatory, boost metabolism and are full of essential vitamins.

Foods rich in Vitamin A include salmon, eggs, fish, broccoli, spinach, and most dark green, leafy vegetables, and adding that Vitamin A is a godsend for those suffering from acne.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant which also assists with immunity. As Vitamin C is not stored in your body, eating foods rich in it, such as oranges, is important.
Smoothies are also a great booster, adding bio fermented probiotic rich elixirs and powders from the Beauty Chef can help unlock glowing skin and a healthy gut.

5. EXERCISE!

Aerobic activity helps to protect the skin from free radicals, synthesise hyaluronic acid and can even slow down the ageing process.

Oxygen intake is key for this to happen so move and work out daily, even if it’s just a little.
Remember slow and steady wins the race! It’s the same when it comes to skincare sticking to a basic routine is best.

If you are unsure what products are best suited to your skin or what to do when, please get in touch, we are always here to help 😊! During self-isolation we offer virtual skin consultations with our dermal skin therapists to help you with your iso skin care. Our skin craves stability, let’s do it! Click here to learn more.

Don’t break the bank with these thrifty skincare tips

When we talk about skincare it’s common for us to focus on your face.

However, the skin is our largest living organ and covers our entire body so we should be taking care of all of it. The good news is there are a plethora of natural and cost-effective products on the market that will give you that all body glow.

But before we begin, we thought we better educate you on why the skin on your face and the skin on your body deserves to be treated differently.

There are number of differences between skin on different parts of the body.  There are even differences in the skin from one part of the face to the next.  I’ll try to break down the major differences into categories:


1) Skin thickness.  Think of the difference in skin thickness on the eyelid (around 0.5mm) and the skin on the sole of your foot (up to 5mm in some places).  The skin has different thicknesses because it has different demands placed on it depending on location.


2) Oiliness.  The skin on the face has a lot more sebaceous glands (oil glands) on it than other parts of the body.  The oil (or sebum) has different proposed functions: it helps to lubricate/hydrate the skin, that it contains antioxidants, that it contains antimicrobial (bacteria-fighting) substances.


3) Number of other glands.  The skin under the arms, in the groin, and in the ear canals have special glands that produce a type of sweat that can smell.  These are called apocrine glands.  The sweat itself doesn’t smell bad, but it changes when it comes into contact with bacteria that lives on all of us.  This produces the smell.


4) Amount and type of hair.  The density of hair follicles on facial skin is actually quite high, but most of that hair is very fine and hard to see.  The density of hair follicles on the face is a lot higher than on the back, for example.


These are some of the major differences in skin in different areas of the body.  The reason we use different washes, etc. on different parts of the body is because of the different characteristics of the skin. The thinness of the skin plays a big role in that.

Natural products to use on your body:

  1. Dry Body Brush

These can be purchased by under $10 at most chemists or health food stores. Dry body brushing helps shed dead skin cells (and encourages new cell renewal), which results in smoother and brighter skin.

It can also help with any pesky ingrown hairs. It assists in improving vascular blood circulation and lymphatic drainage.


Try body brushing in upwards sweeping motions from your feet to your thighs and your fingers to your shoulders.

Try body brushing before every shower this week and see if you can feel the difference. Your skin should feel softer and smoother.

  1. Make your own body exfoliators

It might sound like too much work, but in reality a few simple household ingredients can combine into a wonderful in shower exfoliant. Next time you are in the supermarket reaching for your favourite shower scrub take a look at the ingredients and see if you recognise any of them.

The likeliness is they are full of pesky parabens and artificial fragrances that your skin is unknowingly absorbing. Like your face, you want to feed your body real ingredients.
Some of our favourite DIY scrubs:

  • Green Tea & Sugar Scrub
  • Pink Himalayan and Rose Petal Salt Scrub
  • Cucumber and Mint Scrub

For recipes click here to go to our Face Plus Pinterest Account and checkout our DIY skincare board

  1. Coconut Oil

Are you sunburnt or is your skin deeply dehydrated? Coconut oil is an amazing natural ingredient that should also be used outside of the kitchen.


Massage it into your body after your shower and notice how hydrated and glowy your skin looks.

Pro tip: If you’re suffering from dry and damaged hair cover your hair in some melted coconut oil and leave it on overnight (just makes sure to sleep on a towel, so you don’t grease your sheets).

It is an incredibly restorative leave in conditioner and your hair will be super glossy the next day.

How to mentally overcome Rosacea

If you suffer from Rosacea, the first thing to understand is that you are not alone.

Rosacea is a common, inflammatory skin disorder with a worldwide distribution of more than 50 million people. Many famous faces have Rosacea; Prince William, Renee Zellweger, Cynthia Nixon, Bill Clinton and Lena Dunham to name a few.

While Rosacea has no known cure or cause the condition can often cause embarrassment and distress. One of the hardest hurdles to overcome is the fact that Rosacea can appear at any time in a person’s life.

Clinical studies indicate most Rosacea patients first noticed the redness in their 30’s-40’s, however, it can appear on anyone and sometimes quite out of the blue. 

While the condition is more commonly diagnosed in fair-skinned people of European descent, it can also occur in people of all ethnicities and skin types.
What to do when you first notice Rosacea

  1. If you do think you have Rosacea, the first step is the get a referral from your GP to see a dermatologist. Depending on the severity of your condition they might recommend anti-biotics, specific topical creams and/or dietary changes.
  1. Before meeting with your dermatologist (specialist appointments can take a while to book so make sure to be proactive about this), it is best to educate yourself on the condition as much as possible. Read about common trigger points and keep a journal of what you think your own triggers might be. Being conscious of your diet and lifestyle can really help inform your specialist as to an appropriate treatment plan.
  1. Once you have seen your dermatologist, book in a skin consultation and treatment with an experienced dermal therapist. There are many facials, Light and Laser treatments available that can help to restore the skin balance and reduce the symptoms of rosacea. A dermal therapist will also be able to work alongside your dermatologist to advice you on what topical skincare products you need to introduce into your regime and which ones you need to eliminate.
  1. The most important point to consider when you first notice Rosacea is the detrimental impact stress and anxiety have on the condition. Create an action plan to assure yourself that you are going to overcome this skin condition and alleviate some of the uncertainty and pressure of the unknown. Join online forums for people with Rosacea and create a network around you of people that understand what you are going through. By being proactive and conscious about the condition you can make better choices to avoid trigger points that result in rosacea flare ups.

Aging: Mind over Matter

 


“Aging is a fact of life. Looking your age is not.”

Research shows that your genes are only 25% responsible for visible signs of aging. So don’t blame your mum and dad for your early onset of fine lines and wrinkles. There are other factors such as stress, environment, nutrition, lifestyle and immunity that play a key role in how we age.

While we can’t turn back or even freeze the clock, we can make everyday lifestyle adjustments to make sure that aging can be just a number and not a reflection on how you physically look and mentally feel.

  1. Get active

Move it or loose it. As we get older, everything starts to slow down from our collagen production, our cell turnover and most importantly our energy levels.

One University study found that human levels of serotonin (the brain neurotransmitter that regulates mood, appetite, sleep and blood pressure) naturally decrease with age, often resulting in depression, anxiety and hardening of the arteries.

Luckily, exercise is an excellent way to give serotonin levels a boost, as well as combat the effects of the stress hormone cortisol.

Make it a habit to move your body for at least 30 minutes every day to keep your body physically healthy and mind mentally happy.

  1. Get plenty of Sleep

They call it beauty sleep for a reason. You should aim for eight hours of sleep a night to give your body enough time to recharge.

While you’re sleeping, your body—and your skin—are hard at work healing themselves.

During the deeper phases of sleep, your body produces growth hormone, which repairs daily damage from things like sun exposure and pollution and creates new cells so you wake up looking brighter, fresher and younger.

  1. Maintain a positive attitude.

The glass is either half empty or half full. How you choose to look at it effects your perspective on almost everything you do in life. The single most important factor in healthy aging is cultivating a positive outlook.

Research shows that your attitude, resiliency and the way you cope with stress may be better predictors of healthy aging than physical disease or disability. So how do you attain—and maintain—a good attitude?

It’s all about outlook. Begin by accepting that nothing in life is permanent and try to look for the silver lining in every situation. A great attitude can help you enjoy getting older, instead of dreading or simply tolerating it.

  1. Forget what you think you know about aging

Many of us have preconceived notions of what it means to age. Whether it’s new mums cutting off their long hair, or women in their 40’s deciding to ditch skirts forever, these choices are based on social stereotypes.

Each generation is conditioned through television, books, movies, music and other aspects of culture about what people should act like, look like and even feel like as they grow older.

We incorporate these beliefs into our subconscious and they become part of the factors that control how our genes work.

The bottom line: If you think you’re old, you’ll act and look old, too.

Why you must learn to meditate

Be mindful of your mind!

Technology dominates our day to day lives so much so that it’s common to find the only time when we don’t have a device switched on and/or glued to our face is when we are sleeping.

The constant connectivity and wavelengths greatly impact our psyche. We have seen a rapid rise in diagnosed depression and anxiety and technology is largely to blame. Whether we’re being judged on social media, bombarded with news & paid advertising or feeling the pressure to constantly check in with work emails and correspondence.

There is this expectation that we must keep up. Meditation is an easy to master technique where the prime objective is to slow down and switch off. Essentially, the exact opposite of what modern life demands.

What is Meditation?
Meditation is a means of transforming the mind. Meditation practices involve developing techniques that encourage concentration, clarity, emotional positivity and a calm seeing of the true nature of things.

Like anything, meditation is a skill you need to practice. With regular work and patience these nourishing, focused states of mind can deepen into profoundly peaceful and energised states of mind.

How do I start meditating?
While technology is definitely the root cause of our inability to focus, it has also lead to some amazing technological advances to allow the practice of meditation into everyone’s devices.

At Face Plus Medispa we are big fans of the following Meditation apps
Headspace
Calm
The Mindfulness App

Starting with just a minute or two a day these apps allow you to relax with guided meditations and mindfulness techniques that bring calm, wellness and balance to your life.

In a guided meditation, a narrator or teacher explains the dynamics of the mind and how it’s likely to behave during meditation. (This is the approach.)

The teacher may also explain meditation techniques. (This is the practice.) Finally, the teacher may explain how to take these techniques into everyday life. (This is the integration.)

Why should I meditate?
For many people, meditation has become a tool for managing stress. For some, it helps to promote improved health, including a better quality of sleep.

For others, it helps them achieve some underlying sense of peace, and that feeling of contentment, no matter what they’re dealing with in life.

When we’re in a healthier place mentally, then we’re bound to interact with others in a more positive way, meaning meditation can benefit our relationships, too.

When we meditate, we’re cultivating an awareness of the present moment. We’re training the mind to better understand how and why we think and feel the way we do, with the aim of fundamentally transforming our experience, and perspective, of everyday life.
