JAKARTA - Having healthy and beautiful skin is a dream of many people. In addition to outside care such as skincare, maintaining skin health from the inside is also as important.

One effective way to support skin health is to take beauty supplements. This supplement contains important nutrients that help treat skin, hair, and nails optimally.

Dermatologist, dr. Tiara Rachmaputeri Arianto, Sp.DV said taking beauty supplements contains important vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, E, collagen to zinc.

This nutrition plays an important role in maintaining skin elasticity, reducing wrinkles, and making the skin more moist and glowing. By menutrising the skin from within, supplements help repair damaged skin cells and accelerate skin regeneration.

This was revealed by dr. Tiara in the 'Beautiful Gathering of Blackmores X Guardian - Health Beauty from Within. Blackmores collaborates with the Guardian to hold a Beautiful Gathering with the Guardian to educate women about the importance of providing the nutrients that the skin needs from within, by consuming vitamins and essential minerals to support skin health

"Obviously it is the largest organ. After all, we must take care of the development of the body. To protect the body, we must be treated from the inside and outside," said dr. Tiara, when met at Pondok Indah Mall, Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta on Tuesday, December 17, 2024.

In addition, taking supplements also increases collagen production. Collagen is a protein that plays an important role in maintaining tightness and softness of the skin. As you get older, natural collagen production in the body decreases, so that the skin becomes sagging and fine lines appear.

"Say collagen, production continues to decrease. Reduced by 1 to 1.5 percent throughout the year. Aging also continued to decline, so we had to be treated. For us oily skin is also prone to wrinkles," he explained.

The vitamin C content for the face can stimulate the formation of collagen in the skin. The reason is, vitamin C works by 'gluing' various kinds of amino acids to form collagen in the skin.

Meanwhile, Vitamin E is also known to have many benefits for skin health, especially facial skin. Some facial skin problems that can be overcome using vitamin E are premature aging, acne, and inflammation of the skin.

"Vitamins are needed a lot. Vit E reduces inflammation, such as overcoming acne problems, that's an inflammatory effect. Vitamin C is good for the skin." he said.
