Abstract

Collagen is essential to skin structure and integrity, and it is continually degraded with aging due to higher oxidative stress. Sleep deprivation accelerates skin aging and reduces collagen production. Good sleep may be a potential adjuvant to the efficacy of oral supplementation with collagenic peptides for the skin.
