1. Genetics Don't Make Collagen. Your Cells Do.
This was the thing that changed my thinking. I always thought that because my mum had thin skin, I was going to have thin skin, end of story. But genetics only control how fast you lose collagen. They do not control whether your cells can make more of it. That ability is in every human body regardless of family history. Your cells just need the right signal to start producing again, and that has nothing to do with what your mum looks like. Red light therapy at 630nm is that signal, the specific wavelength that reaches your collagen-producing cells and tells them to get back to work.
What that means for you:
- Genetics affect how fast you lose collagen, not whether you can rebuild it
- Your collagen producing cells stay active throughout your life
- The right signal works regardless of your family history
