Overview

The makers of Collagen RX claim that this product can reduce wrinkles and make skin younger. They also report that this formula uses a superior delivery system to penetrate the skin, which theoretically would be a helpful alternative to Botox and other types of injections. A closer look reveals that Collagen RX seems to be more hype than anything else.

 Featured Ingredients

Collagen RX gets off on the wrong foot because it is soon revealed that this formula contains primarily Purified Water and Collagen. While it may seem a good idea to provide water to the skin - since loss of moisture is a key reason why skin becomes dry and wrinkles form - the fact remains that water itself does not make a good anti-aging component. The skin, as it ages, has a hard time absorbing and retaining water and thus any plumping or moisturizing effect will be temporary at best. A better strategy to promote moisturization is by using Hyaluronic Acid.

In addition, the AntiAging-Reviews.com research team remains skeptical of any product claiming to deliver collagen to the skin. To our knowledge, this feat is accomplished only through injection, since whole collagen molecules are too large to penetrate the outer layers of skin. Plus, many products use questionable sources for their collagen, including bovine (cow) or shellfish. In contrast, it makes more sense to stimulate the skin to produce more of its own collagen through such powerful ingredients as Glucosamine Complex.

 Web Site Description

At first glance, the web site for Collagen RX seems like it will be informative. But then it is soon revealed that very little research is included on the site. No testimonials are posted on the site, making us wonder whether any customers have in fact had any success with the product. In addition, it is unclear if customers can try the product for free before purchasing a full supply.

 Positives

- May have slight and temporary moisturizing effect

 Negatives

- Collagen cannot be delivered through the skin effectively

- No testimonials or free trial option

- Does not contain Glucosamine Complex or Hyaluronic Acid

 Conclusion

Although the concept behind Collagen RX seems to be a good one, the product fails to deliver on many levels. The lack of a tried and true anti-aging ingredient concerns us, and the notion that the formula can deliver whole collagen molecules simply falls flat. Those looking to reduce lines and wrinkles would be best served looking elsewhere.
