Longevity and Prejuvenation – The Next big Growth Drivers

Today’s beauty standards are rooted in health and longevity and consumers are no longer satisfied with reactive anti-aging. They want prejuvenation - a proactive approach that prevents visible signs of aging before they appear, rather than correcting them later. But consumers not only want proven efficacy; they seek ingredients that feel natural and align with their values. Biomimetic, or nature-identical, solutions meet this demand by replicating the skin’s own structures through advanced biotechnology, delivering performance as well as ethical innovation.

For formulators and brand managers, this shift in consumer priorities is an opportunity: create products that deliver measurable results and align with modern beauty needs. Vecollage® Fortify makes this possible.

The Biotech Breakthrough for Collagen Renewal

Vecollage® Fortify is a biotech-derived collagen polypeptide that mirrors a fragment of human collagen type III, the key to skin’s structural integrity and elasticity. Its dual-action mechanism delivers targeted prejuvenation benefits:

 

  • Protects against age-related collagen breakdown
  • Stimulates neosynthesis of key collagen types

 

The result? Clinically proven improvements in firmnesselasticity, and dermal structure - enabling brands to make credible, science-backed claims that resonate with today’s informed and values-driven consumers.

Ethical Innovation Meets Performance

Vecollage® Fortify empowers you to meet consumer expectations for efficacy, transparency, and responsibility - without compromise.

  • Science-backed differentiation: Clinically validated performance for visible results at minimal use level.
  • Ethical innovation: 100% vegan-suitable, produced via advanced biotechnology using renewable plant-based feedstock.
  • Sustainability advantage: Reduced land, water, and energy use compared to animal-derived collagen.

Biotech in Cosmetics - A Competitive Edge

In today's world, consumers are increasingly aware of the impact of their choices on the environment and society. Traditional sources of collagen, derived from animal by-products, no longer meet the expectations of the modern, conscious consumer.

The Vecollage® Fortify products are ethical and sustainable. In contrast to animal-derived collagen, the collagen polypeptide is based on a fermentation process using renewable plant-based feedstock, with minimized land, water, and energy use. This makes it a more environmentally friendly option that aligns with the growing trend towards sustainability in the cosmetics industry.
