How does topical vitamin C work?
Increasingly, research has shown that adding topical vitamin C to skin can stimulate the production of collagen, a protein which helps form the skin’s supporting structure. Normally as we age, collagen degenerates, and as a result, our skin wrinkles. Collagen is like the springs in a bed, with time and exposure to UV radiation it becomes damaged ,an as a result, sags. Increasingly it is shown that topical Vitamin C actually prevents UV radiation from damaging the underlying skin structure.
