Hello, collagen loss can lead to skin wrinkles, sagging, and reduced elasticity. In daily life, you can supplement collagen through dietary means—for example, by consuming more pig’s trotters, chicken feet, tremella fungus, or collagen powder. However, avoid excessive intake to prevent increased cholesterol risk. Additionally, applying vitamin E topically to the face may help restore skin luster. If dietary supplementation proves ineffective, consider consulting a healthcare provider for photorejuvenation (intense pulsed light therapy), which typically yields relatively rapid results. For routine skincare, regularly use collagen-containing face masks or serums. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health!
