"Taking collagen keeps skin elastic but won't stop wrinkles, say scientists"

Headline from BBC News (27 February 2026): "Taking collagen keeps skin elastic but won't stop wrinkles, say scientists"

Key takeaways from the review (published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal Open Forum, analysing 113 trials with nearly 8,000 participants):

  • Daily collagen supplements do improve skin elasticity and hydration/moisture — helping skin feel firmer and more supple over time.
  • They provide credible benefits for healthy ageing, including reduced joint pain and stiffness from osteoarthritis.
  • However, they do not prevent or eliminate wrinkles — so they're not a miracle "anti-wrinkle" cure.
  • Consistent, long-term use is key for noticeable results; many studies were industry-funded, but this independent review strengthens the evidence for real (though targeted) benefits.
  • Experts like Prof Lee Smith (Anglia Ruskin University) note: "Collagen is not a cure-all, but it does have credible benefits... particularly for skin and osteoarthritis."
  • The British Nutrition Foundation and British Association of Dermatologists emphasise supporting natural collagen production through diet (vitamin C, zinc, protein) alongside any supplements.

This aligns well with how we position our products at SellHealth UK: realistic, evidence-based wellness support rather than overhyped promises.
