Tropocollagen in cosmetics – who is it for and what does the treatment involve?

What is a tropocollagen treatment?

This treatment involves applying biologically active collagen (typically in the form of ampoules, masks, or via microneedling or needle-free mesotherapy) to stimulate skin regeneration and improve its condition.


Who is it for?

  • People with signs of aging (wrinkles, loss of firmness)
  • Individuals aged 25–30+ for anti-aging prevention
  • Dull, tired-looking skin
  • Post-aesthetic procedures (to support healing)
  • Dry, dehydrated skin with a weakened protective barrier

Is the treatment painful?

The procedure is not painful. Sensation depends on the method used:

  • Masks or ampoules – completely painless
  • Microneedling – mild pricking may occur, but a numbing cream is typically applied beforehand

How long does it take?

Usually 30–60 minutes, depending on the technique used (e.g., massage, oxygen infusion, microneedling).


Contraindications:

  • Active skin infections (acne, cold sores)
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding (depending on method)
  • Allergies to product ingredients (rare, but a patch test is advised)
  • Autoimmune diseases (consult with a doctor)
  • Cancer (consultation required)

When are the results visible?

  • Initial results (hydration, smoothing) – after the first treatment
  • Full results – typically after a series of 3–5 treatments every 2–3 weeks
  • Skin becomes firmer, more radiant, and elastic
