I'm having a facelift in four weeks. Would it be beneficial to bump my collagen intake up to 20 or 30 grams a day? Would it help with healing or recovery? I am 60 years old. Thank you.

Answer: Collagen Intake Good Afternoon! Great question. If you feel like the collagen supplements help, then you may be able to continue them. I'm unaware if increasing the dosage will do anything significant. In general, preparing your diet with lean proteins, leafy green vegetables, and low salt will prove to be helpful. For bruising, you may consider Arnica before and after. Avoiding hot environments as well will reduce swelling. Hope this is useful!
