Collagen tissue gives flexibility, resistance, freedom of movement, and vitality to organs and structures, keeping them in place. It is the primary structural component of the skin and plays an important role in the health of bones, tissues, joints, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, hair, and nails.

So far, 28 types of collagen have been discovered, but about 80-90% of the total collagen in our body is composed of types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10.

Type I collagen is the most common type of collagen in our body and can be transformed into other collagen types. It is generally found in all tissues of the body. Type I collagen is especially involved in the structure of the skin, hair, and nails, providing tightness, elasticity, and moisture to the skin.

Type II collagen is a component of joint cartilage. It contributes to cartilage production in connective tissues, supporting joint health.

Type III collagen is found in the skin, large blood vessels, uterus, and intestines, along with type I collagen. It represents approximately 15% of the collagen in the skin. Its functions in the body include forming blood vessels and tissue, supporting wound healing with type I collagen, and maintaining skin elasticity, providing flexibility and firmness to the skin.
