process of creating collagen, crucial for skin and hair structure

Collagen synthesis, also known as collagen formation or collagen production, is the process by which the body produces collagen, a vital protein that provides structure and strength to skin, hair, nails, bones, and connective tissues. This process involves the assembly of amino acids into procollagen, which is then modified and assembled into mature collagen fibers, essential for maintaining the integrity and elasticity of various tissues.
