The benefits of collagen
Collagen is an essential structural protein found abundantly in our body. It makes up about 30% of the total proteins in the body and plays a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of the structure of the skin, hair, nails, joints, and bones. Indeed, from the age of 25, collagen production decreases and signs of aging appear: wrinkles and fine lines, skin laxity, joint problems, digestive disorders. The benefits of collagen are numerous and varied for the body and skin:
For the skin
Collagen is essential for the firmness and elasticity of the skin. Indeed, it contributes to the regeneration of skin cells and the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines. Moreover, from the age of 40, the body produces about 1% less collagen each year, which accentuates these signs of aging.
For hair and nails
Collagen contributes to strengthen the hair and the nails by providing them with the amino acids necessary for their growth and strength. This support in amino acids is particularly beneficial for people with fragile or brittle hair and nails.
For the joints
Collagen helps maintain the health of cartilage and connective tissues, which is beneficial for the joints and can help reduce joint pain. It is therefore a valuable ally for athletes and older individuals, who are often prone to these pains.
Some definitions about collagen
There are several types and forms of collagen, each having specific properties and particular benefits. The choice of type of collagen will depend on your specific beauty and wellness needs.
Bovine collagen
Bovine collagen is extracted from the skin, bones, and connective tissues of cattle. It is primarily composed of type I and III collagen, both of which are essential for the health of the skin, hair, nails, and joints. Bovine collagen is known for its high content of glycine and proline, amino acids that are crucial for collagen synthesis in our body.
Marine collagen
Marine collagen is extracted from fish skin. It is highly bioavailable, meaning it is easily absorbed by the body. It is composed of 94% type I collagen, the most abundant in our body, making it a valuable source for our tissues.
Collactive Collagen
Collactive collagen is a unique blend of marine collagen and elastin, replicating the essential proportions for skin health. This specific combination contributes to the firmness and elasticity of the skin while promoting its regeneration.
Naticol Collagen
Naticol collagen is a high-quality hydrolyzed marine collagen. It has clinically proven effectiveness on wrinkle depth and skin hydration restoration. It is also particularly valued for its beneficial effects on hair and nail health.
Hydrolyzed collagen
Hydrolyzed collagen is broken down into smaller peptides for better absorption. It is particularly effective for the skin, hair, and nails. Moreover, its breakdown facilitates its assimilation by the body, thereby optimizing its benefits.
Collagen peptides
Collagen peptides are small chains of amino acids that are easily absorbed by the body and used for collagen formation. They are therefore essential for collagen synthesis in our body.
What are the collagens used by D-LAB?
D-LAB NUTRICOSMETICS incorporates high-quality hydrolyzed marine collagen into its dietary supplements. This collagen comes from the skin of fish sourced from sustainable and ethical sources. Thanks to hydrolysis, it is easily digestible and absorbable by the body, thereby enhancing its positive effects on the skin, hair, nails, and joints.
D-LAB has chosen the most effective and powerful collagen on the market! A French marine collagen, hydrolyzed and low molecular weight, offering clinically proven anti-aging results. Our collagen stands out for its marine origin, a form recognized as being the best absorbed by the body.
Thanks to a careful hydrolysis process, collagen is broken down into smaller particles, with a molecular weight of about 2,000 Da, ensuring optimal absorption. This unique collactive collagen formula, composed of 94% type I marine collagen and 6% elastin fibers, precisely reproduces the essential proportions for skin health. From just 2 grams per day, our collagen has demonstrated its effectiveness against the depth of wrinkles and skin dehydration.
The dermis becomes more flexible and the skin tighter. The hydrolyzed collagen used by D-LAB is extracted from wild fish sourced from certified responsible French fisheries, MarinTrust. It is obtained through enzymatic hydrolysis of freshly collected wild fish skins (daily collection) in Boulogne-sur-Mer.
D-LAB, an expert in collagen optimization for nutricosmetics, has created new formulas based on collagen and vitamin C. Why this combination? Vitamin C plays a crucial role in the conversion of proline to hydroxyproline, a process necessary for collagen formation. Without adequate vitamin C intake, the body cannot synthesize or store collagen. It is therefore the perfect ally to help with the assimilation of Pro-Collagen powder and to stimulate the endogenous synthesis of collagen in the body.
D-LAB offers a complete range of collagen-based products.
- L'Absolu de Collagène, a dietary supplement in tablet form, contains 2 grams of collagen.
- The Pro-Collagen powders combine collagen and vitamin C to stimulate collagen production, as well as other active ingredients such as minerals and plants recognized for their effects. One of these active ingredients is supported by a clinical study targeting a specific issue: skin, slimness, digestion, joints... Thus, all Pro-Collagen powders offer not only the moisturizing and plumping benefits of collagen for the skin but also the antioxidant action of vitamin C, which enhances collagen absorption. A 2-in-1 supplement that, thanks to the addition of specific natural actives for each treatment, becomes a 3-in-1 supplement!
Clinical results
The collagen dietary supplements from D-LAB NUTRICOSMETICS have proven their effectiveness in clinical settings. They have demonstrated their ability to reduce the depth of wrinkles, restore skin hydration, and strengthen hair and nails.

Collagen and hyaluronic acid
The combination of marine collagen and hyaluronic acid offers numerous benefits for the skin, hair, nails, joints, detoxification, and cellular regeneration, as well as for overall well-being. Collagen strengthens the structure of the skin and hair, while the...hyaluronic acid ensures optimal hydration. This synergy is therefore a real asset for health and beauty.
The advantages of the association
Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to retain water, which can help keep the skin hydrated and prevent dryness. The combination of collagen and hyaluronic acid thus results in firmer, smoother, and visibly younger skin. It also contributes to the improvement of hair and nail health, as well as detoxification and cellular regeneration.
The effects on the skin
The combination of collagen and hyaluronic acid can help maximize skin hydration and minimize the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Additionally, this synergy can contribute to increasing skin elasticity, reducing signs of aging, and improving skin texture.
Dietary supplement collagen, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C
Vitamin C is essential for collagen synthesis. It contributes to the formation of collagen to ensure the normal functioning of the skin, teeth, gums, cartilage, and bones. Thus, a dietary supplement combining collagen, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C is particularly effective. This formula is even more beneficial as it combines the benefits of these three essential ingredients for radiant skin health and overall well-being.
The best seller D-LAB in the powdered collagen range is the Pro-Collagen Peau Neuve Raspberry, formulated with collactive collagen, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and zinc.
How to choose your collagen?
The quality and origin of collagen are essential criteria for choosing a dietary supplement. It is equally important to consider the bioavailability of collagen, that is to say, its ability to be absorbed and used effectively by the body.
Quality and origin
It is preferable to choose a high-quality collagen from sustainable and ethical sources. D-LAB NUTRICOSMETICS products are made in France, in a green factory, with high-quality ingredients from Green Tech.
The essential criteria
A good collagen dietary supplement should be easy to digest and absorb. It should also be free from contaminants and harmful substances. Additionally, high-quality collagen is hydrolyzed, meaning it is broken down into smaller peptides for better absorption. It is also essential to choose products with clinically proven effectiveness.
Collagen cures
A collagen treatment can be beneficial for strengthening the skin, hair, and nails, and for supporting joint health. It is recommended to follow a collagen treatment for at least 3 months to achieve visible results. This duration is necessary to allow for the regeneration of skin cells and the production of new collagen.
The importance of regular consumption
Regular consumption of collagen dietary supplements is essential to maintain an optimal level of collagen in the body and to enjoy all its benefits. Starting at age 25, collagen production begins to decrease, so regular supplementation helps to compensate for this loss. It is recommended to take collagen every day, preferably on an empty stomach for better absorption.
