Asked 2 years ago
I have cellulite all over my body and it makes me feel terrible about myself. My body image has really taken a knock. Does collagen powder tighten loose skin? If so, can I use it to reduce cellulite?

Yes, collagen can tighten loose skin and studies have shown that it can help reduce cellulite. The best type of collagen for this is bioactive collagen peptides. That's because this type of collagen has undergone hydrolysis to increase its bioavailability in the body. It goes to work on the dermis and subcutaneous layers of skin, working from the inside out. You should take it consistently for about 3-6 months before seeing an improvement in the appearance of cellulite.
