Skin elasticity and Lipoedema - What happen to Elastin and what you can do to start improving it.

OptiVein Season 1 Episode 9

The connective tissue environment is primarily influenced by two key proteins: elastin and collagen. In lipoedema—a disorder of loose connective tissue—certain changes occur that lead to increased oxidative stress and chronic low grade local inflammation. These factors can significantly worsen symptoms over time.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the fascinating world of elastin and collagen: how they function within healthy connective tissue, what goes wrong in lipoedema, and practical ways to naturally support and rebuild these vital proteins. Don’t miss it!
