A 2014 clinical study that examined the effects of marine collagen peptide ingestion on the skin of healthy women aged 35-65 years found that use of Nippi Collagen’s TruMarine Collagen provided anti-aging benefits.
 
The research was intended to study the effectiveness of TruMarine Collagen on skin parameters related to cutaneous aging by a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial. 
 
In a clinical trial, 88 women aged 35-65 years were given 5 grams of TruMarine Collagen peptide or placebo daily after dinner for 8 weeks, without knowing which material they were consuming. Before treatment and at 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, digital images of the face were analyzed by VISIA Complexion Analysis with multiple end points for facial skin parameters related to cutaneous aging. At 0, 4 and 8 weeks, wrinkles, pores, age spots (brown and red skin lesions inclusive of hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne spots, vascular lesions and lentigines) and texture (variation in tone and smoothness on the skin surface) were objectively measured. In addition, a daily diary and a subjective self-assessment questionnaire of facial skin condition were recorded at 0, 4 and 8 weeks. 
 
Overall, wrinkles, texture, tone and smoothness were all significantly improved; resulting in a more youthful appearance. The daily intake of TruMarine Collagen resulted in a noticeable improvement of facial skin condition at both 4 and 8 weeks. 
 
Additional results from the trial showed observed improvements in facial skin condition (68 % increase) including minimizing fine lines, wrinkles and uneven appearance of skin. Overall, there was significant improvements in skin texture, tone and smoothness resulting in a more youthful appearance.
