The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of oral collagen drink and MAXI collagen drink on human skin condition improvement.
This study is a single-center, double-blinded, parallel human trial designed to evaluate the skin beauty effect of oral collagen drink and MAXI collagen drink. Healthy adult participants aged 18-60 years will be enrolled. Participants will be informed to consume test samples daily for 4 consecutive weeks. Skin measurement and self-assessment questionnaires will be conducted at baseline (before intake), after 1 week, and 4 weeks of consumption.
