Biomimetic Collagen: Skincare Science for a Healthier Scalp

11
Aug

Collagen is one of the most talked-about ingredients in beauty — celebrated in skincare for its role in keeping the skin firm, supple, and youthful. But did you know collagen can also be a game-changer for your scalp and hair?

At Maya Chia, innovation means taking the most effective skincare breakthroughs and applying them to scalp care. Their Power Fol™ Advanced Multi-Correctional Scalp & Hair Treatment features HumanColl™21 — a vegan biomimetic collagen that closely mimics the structure of human collagen Type 21, a form of collagen that naturally declines with age.

What Makes HumanColl™21 Different?

Traditional collagen in beauty products often comes from marine or animal sources. HumanColl™21 is entirely plant-derived yet designed to replicate the exact amino acid structure of human collagen. This makes it highly compatible with our skin — including the scalp — and effective at:

Stimulating collagen, elastin, and fibronectin production
Strengthening the scalp’s extracellular matrix (the “scaffolding” that supports hair follicles)
Encouraging healthier, denser hair growth conditions

Collagen Benefits for the Scalp

A healthy scalp is the foundation for healthy hair. HumanColl™21 offers multiple benefits:

Boosts structure & resilience – Supports the proteins that give scalp skin its firmness and elasticity.
Improves hydration – Encourages higher levels of hyaluronic acid for lasting moisture.
Soothes & calms – Helps reduce redness and irritation, even after UV exposure.
Optimises follicle environment – Strengthens the dermal papilla, where hair growth begins.

Proven Results

In clinical studies, HumanColl™21 has been shown to:

Increase skin elasticity by +123%
Improve collagen content by +9%
Reduce redness by –58%
Reduce fine lines/wrinkles by –12%

While these studies were performed on facial skin, the scalp has similar structural needs — meaning these results can translate into a stronger foundation for hair growth.

Why Choose Biomimetic Collagen Over Marine Collagen?

Vegan & cruelty-free – No animal-derived ingredients
Highly compatible with human skin – Better targeted results
Lower environmental impact – Sustainable plant-based production reduces carbon footprint and avoids overfishing or animal farming

The Power Fol™ Formula

HumanColl™21 is just one part of the Power Fol™ Advanced Multi-Correctional Scalp & Hair Treatment. This lightweight, fast-absorbing serum also contains:

Peptides & amino acids – To strengthen hair and support volume
Adaptogens – Like ashwagandha, to help balance the scalp environment
Antioxidants & phyto-actives – Including green tea, turmeric, and astaxanthin to protect against oxidative stress
Fermented minerals – For optimal scalp health and nourishment
