Collagen is the main component in human skin and accounts for nearly 80% of it. So, when our collagen production slows down, our skin develops wrinkles.

Though the human body creates collagen naturally, the amount of collagen, it creates decreases over time. From our early twenties it starts to decline at a rate of 1.5% a year and by the age of 60, most women have lost 80% of their collagen levels. As it does, our skin and body begin to lose its ability to bounce back.
