    protein providing skin structure and elasticity

    Dermal collagen is a protein found in the dermis, the middle layer of the skin, that provides structural support and elasticity. It helps maintain skin strength and firmness, playing a crucial role in wound healing and overall skin health. As we age, the production of dermal collagen decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin.
