Collaser-48 Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Collaser-48 is an anti-wrinkle serum that contains collagen and claims to work in 48 hours. Collaser-48 is one of many products created by Lancome, a popular beauty company. Lancome is a very old company with a rich history that dates back to 1935 when the company was launched. The premiere line of anti-aging products by Lancome is the High Resolution line of wrinkle fighting serums, creams, and moisturizers.

Collaser-48 used to be a very good seller for Lancome but recently they decided it was time for a change. Collaser-48 now goes by the name High Resolution Collaser-5X but still contains all of the same ingredients as it used to. This product claims to immediately make your skin feel smoother and softer, and after four weeks of continual use your skin may be 80% softer and more supple with a visible decrease in wrinkles and fine lines.

Product Details

The official Lancome website offers an informative video presentation about Collaser-48 (5X) in addition to the standard product description. The video tells you about collagen, where it is in the skin, and what this product is supposed to do. The theory is that as we age, our natural collagen in the skin wears out and breaks down, which leads to wrinkles and fine lines. Collaser-48 (5X) claims to help restore this collagen and keep it from degrading in the future.

The active ingredients in this product are rice peptides, alfalfa extract, and co-enzyme R. Not much information is given on these ingredients and the complete list can't be found on the official Lancome website. Lancome also recommends a three-step program that consists of a serum, an anti-aging product (like Collaser-48), and eye care for ideal results.

The Good

  • Collaser-48 (5X) contains peptides and may help restore collagen in the skin.
  • A money-back guarantee is available on all products.

The Bad

  • There is no full ingredients list available for this product.
  • Lancome suggests using a three step system, not just this product alone.
  • We can't find any testimonials or clinical studies about this product.

The Bottom Line

Lancome is a popular beauty products company, and you can find their products online and in numerous retail stores. We like the good reputation of Lancome but wish they would have taken the time to add some testimonials or at least the full ingredients list for Collaser-48 (5X). Rebuilding collagen is beneficial for the skin but we can't be sure if this product will actually get the job done by itself or if you will have to buy the three recommended products from Lancome in order to see the results that you’re looking for.

Our Top Pick For 2009:  Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was rated the best-in-class performer, with a cutting-edge formula and results visible immediately after use. Matrixyl 3000™, the primary active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by clinical research that showed reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles of as much as 33% after two months of use. Additionally, the formula contains the European miracle ingredient Argatensyl™, which creates an immediate tightening effect on applied areas, making results visible within minutes of use.

The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful biochemical makeup by supporting the natural production of three building blocks – Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and other cosmetic signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, and other common factors.

In clinical trials, Matrixyl 3000™ decreased the appearance of wrinkles by as much as 33% over a six week period. With the immediate tightening benefits of Argatensyl™, this formula has a completely unique combination of short-term cosmetic results as well as sustained, cumulative benefits to the skin. Common reported results include smoothing and firming; softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and healthier looking, glowing skin. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction seems high and Dermapril-SP offers a risk-free trial, so users can evaluate the product prior to paying the full retail price.
