Scientific studies

The quality of collagen peptides can vary significantly. The term alone says nothing about their composition or quality . Therefore, it is crucial that studies are conducted directly with the specific product in question. Simply examining the individual ingredients is insufficient.

ELASTEN® has been studied in several placebo-controlled clinical trials . Part of the participants received ELASTEN®, while the other part received a product without the active ingredient (placebo). This allows for precise verification of whether the observed changes are actually attributable to ELASTEN®. The results of these studies have been published internationally. They demonstrate that taking ELASTEN® significantly improves several skin beauty features. Improvements were measurable and visible to the participants on the face, décolleté, forearms, and thighs.
