How Power Plate Vibration Therapy Increases Collagen and Elastin Levels In Your Skin

Power Plate whole body vibration therapy leads to increased elastin and collagen production in your skin and body. 

This reduces loose skin and wrinkles over time. And other key cosmetic benefits, in addition to key health benefits. Let's delve into the science and explore the question: Does vibration tighten skin?

There are two basic steps in this process, and two research reports which show the proof.

1. Standing on a Power Plate for 10 minutes has a dramatic impact on skin blood circulation.  The level of blood that flows to the skin increases significantly when you send the waves from the vibration plate through your body. (source)
• This is a big deal for Type 2 Diabetics. Getting more blood to your feet through a vibration plate can mean that you keep them in severe cases!  But it can also have a tremendous impact on your skin tone, appearance of cellulite.  Here's why....
2. When skin blood circulation increases, this leads directly to increases of collagen and elastin in your entire body. (source) This is helpful to maintaining healthy arteries, and can also promote skin tightening.

And every other major part of your body.  Your bones, skin, hair, muscles, tendons, ligaments and blood vessels all benefit from increases in collagen and elastin production. 

What The Experts Say

According to David Jaimovich, MD "if we delve further into the other physiologic processes that occur in the body when we increase blood flow, we can see that there is a direct correlation to the increase in blood flow and the increase in collagen and elastin. We also know that the body naturally makes collagen, but this production decreases with age."

As we get older, collagen and elastin production decreases. Using Power Plate's vibration training helps to increase skin blood flow which helps to boost collagen and elastin. 

Remember that Power Plate vibration training use also increases levels of Natural Growth Hormone. Which in turn ALSO increases collagen production in the body. 

As well as key sex hormones. Which in turn are important for heart health. All these processes are connected. 

If you use the Power Plate for cosmetic reasons-- for better looking skin, body contouring, more tone, and/or cellulite reduction-- you are also doing something that helps your core health.

Spas in both Asia and Europe use Power Plates in their spas.  It is viewed as a beauty device in those areas. In the US it has traditionally been used as a body contouring and health device.   

• It is also now available for home use. The Power Plate MOVE is the most popular home version.  The Personal is smaller, portable and fits all budgets. 

What makes Power Plate unique is the engine that moves in 3 dimensions at once.  This post explains the technology in detail.
