I would never risk the effects of collagen as it is a poison that causes the muscles to die temporarily until the body can repair itself. An easier form to reduce the visibility of wrinkles is to use preperation h, a hemarroid cream. Yes, this will help reduce swelling around those nasty wrinkles and making your appearance look firmer. You do not have to invest tons of money of expensive creams that contain the same compounds found in hemerroid cream. Same thing - it is shark liver oil that will help reduce. Collagen, no matter the source, is injecting onself with samonela and can cause irriversible damage. Try the alternative and stay away from products that make false claims, and most of the time, if they do work, it is because they contain the same "secret" ingredient found in prep H
