A slap in the face will stimulate collagen.
Temporarily!
This is seen in micro-dermabrasion or other so-called collagen stimulators. It is so temporary that once the initial swelling and/or puffiness is gone, so is the collagen. This usually happens within hours.
Our goal at Academy by Candy is to continue collagen and elastin regeneration far longer than simply a few hours.
With daily use of a properly formulated glycolic acid creme, this is possible.
Why do we want to stimulate collagen?
Remember, by the time we reach 30 we have lost about 50% of our collagen and elastin cells.
Loss of collagen = wrinkles.
Loss of elastin = sagging.
Scary isn’t it? Not any more.
Now, we have proven that Academy glycolic acid, with its small molecular size, can penetrate deep into the level of skin where your collagen and elastin cells are born. This is the basis of anti-aging skincare.
With Academy’s low pH, we are slapping them into reproduction.
