BEAUTIFUL SKIN FROM WITHIN –
WITH THE PATENTED [HC] COLLAGEN COMPLEX®
ELASTEN® contains the special [HC] Collagen Complex®. This has been tested in clinical studies. The collagen peptides it contains show a very high similarity to natural human collagen. ELASTEN® is the only nutrient-rich drinking collagen that has demonstrated its positive beauty effects in several product-specific studies**. It works without excessive collagen, added hyaluronic acid, or artificial enhancers.
Find out here why this works, what matters, and what sets ELASTEN® apart from other collagen products in terms of effectiveness and tolerability.
What makes ELASTEN® special: the [HC] Collagen Complex®
Not all collagen peptides are the same
What matters is the quality and composition of the collagen peptides, which are the result of a complex manufacturing process. The outcome of many years of ELASTEN® research is the [HC] Collagen Complex®. The short-chain peptides are particularly well absorbed by the body – they show excellent bioavailability.
One thing applies to all collagen peptides: 2.5 grams per day is the ideal amount.
Gentle production
The collagen peptides in ELASTEN® are produced from natural collagen using a special biological process. They undergo a proprietary purification procedure that is patent pending. This ensures they remain particularly pure and of high quality.
Germany’s No. 1*
Loved worldwide: Only ELASTEN® drinking ampoules contain the special [HC] Collagen Complex®. Trust the original with proven effectiveness for beautiful skin from within. Skin radiance improves and can thus reduce fine lines.
Good tolerability
ELASTEN® is very well tolerated and suitable for long-term use. For the included ingredients, no interactions with medicines or cosmetics are known or expected. In addition, ELASTEN® contains no alcohol, no lactose, and no gluten.
Only one ampoule daily
Take one ELASTEN® drinking ampoule daily after a meal. It is best taken in the morning, when metabolism is particularly active and nutrients are well distributed throughout the body.
Certified quality
ELASTEN® is the original drinking collagen. Its positive effect on skin and beauty has been demonstrated in several product-specific studies. To ensure consistently high quality, the contents of the drinking ampoules are regularly tested according to strict guidelines by the SGS Institut Fresenius.*
[HC] Collagen Complex®: BIOAVAILABILITY – THE KEY TO BEAUTY FROM WITHIN
Oral intake of an active ingredient alone is often not sufficient to achieve positive effects on the skin. It is crucial that the active ingredient has good bioavailability. The special collagen peptides in ELASTEN® are very similar to the collagen naturally found in the body and are highly bioavailable. The collagen peptides in ELASTEN® are specially processed. They closely resemble the body’s own collagen and are highly bioavailable. Many studies have shown that the bioavailability and transport of collagen peptides can be verified using modern testing methods.

Long-term intake
ELASTEN® is suitable for long-term use. To ensure sufficiently high bioavailability, it is advisable to take ELASTEN® for 8 to 12 weeks.
Good tolerability
ELASTEN® is characterised by very good tolerability and is suitable for long-term use. No interactions with medications or other health products are known or expected with the ingredients in ELASTEN®. It contains no alcohol and is lactose- and gluten-free.

Ingredients
The key to beautiful skin from within lies in the unique composition of its ingredients. The special [HC] Collagen Complex® contains peptides – small protein building blocks that are very similar to human collagen. It is complemented by high-quality nutrients that are important for the skin:
- Zinc to support normal skin function
- Vitamin C for the normal formation of collagen – important for the skin
- Biotin to help maintain normal skin
- Vitamin E to protect skin cells from oxidative stress
The exact amounts of these ingredients can be seen to the right of the drinking ampoule.
Collagen
Collagen is the most important structural protein of the skin.
In the deeper layers of the skin, collagen fibres form a three-dimensional network. This network is called the matrix. It provides structure and firmness to the skin.
Only when the collagen framework is intact can additional substances that store water, such as hyaluronic acid, be incorporated.
This way, the skin is plumped from within and appears smoother and younger.
Zinc
The trace element zinc is essential for us and cannot be produced by the body itself.
Zinc is involved in more than 200 biochemical processes. It is important for maintaining normal skin and hair. As the cells of the skin and hair roots have an intense metabolism and divide rapidly, these areas benefit particularly from the trace element zinc.
Unnecessary
What you don’t need
1. Hyaluronic acid
In drinking ampoules, hyaluronic acid is not effective. The long-chain sugar molecule is broken down immediately after ingestion.
2. Artificial sweeteners
As the cells need some energy, one ampoule of ELASTEN® contains about as much fruit sugar as a quarter of an apple.
3. Artificial flavors and colorings
ELASTEN® contains only natural flavors and taste from high-quality other ingredients. Therefore, no artificial flavors or colorings are needed.
Vitamin C
An indispensable all-rounder for the biological processes in the skin: Vitamin C
The natural acerola extract contained in ELASTEN® is rich in vitamin C. With its antioxidant effect, it protects the cells from oxidative stress. In addition, vitamin C supports the body’s own collagen formation even in the deeper skin layers, thereby contributing to the normal function of connective tissue.
Biotin
Biotin – THE vitamin for skin, hair, and nails
Biotin (vitamin H) helps maintain normal skin and hair. In addition, it plays an important role in the normal metabolic processes of micronutrients and contributes to a normal energy metabolism.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E acts as an effective antioxidant and protects the cells.
Vitamin E captures the highly reactive oxidative compounds in skin cells that are formed by UV radiation. In this way, it especially protects cell membranes and lipoproteins from damage. In addition, it supports the skin cells against oxidative stress.
