Efficacy outcomes included skin luminescence, color, trans-epidermal water loss, moisture content, gloss, elasticity, firmness, wrinkle depth, surface roughness, and collagen distribution. Safety was assessed using a dermatological assessment and subject-reported intolerance questionnaire for adverse events. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; INDUS1530 significantly improved skin hydration and wrinkle depth, while INDUS1520 significantly reduced transepidermal water loss compared with Placebo. Both creams showed a trend of decreased skin roughness and increased collagen distribution, although this difference was not statistically significant between the groups. All treatments, including Placebo, increased skin gloss. No adverse events or skin irritation were observed. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Both fenugreek seed extract creams were well tolerated and demonstrated potential anti-aging benefits, with INDUS1530 showing more pronounced effects on skin hydration and wrinkle reduction. These findings support the use of standardized fenugreek seed extracts as safe and effective ingredients in anti-aging skin care products.&lt;/p&gt;

Participants were randomized to receive either hydrolyzed fish collagen peptides with supportive nutrients (n=67) or active fruit juice control (n=68) daily for 12 weeks. Primary outcomes included skin microtopography parameters measured by Visioscan, skin elasticity assessed by Cutometer, and clinical photoaging classification using Glogau scale. Secondary outcomes examined molecular biomarker changes in procollagen Type I synthesis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The collagen group demonstrated significantly attenuated skin surface deterioration compared to placebo. The Wrinkles parameter showed significant betweengroup differences at week 8 (-100.43 units, p=0.001). Smoothness parameter exhibited protective effects with significant between-group differences at week 8 (-80.08 units, p=0.002). Gross elasticity improved significantly within the collagen group at week 12 (p=0.033). Procollagen Type I synthesis demonstrated superior maintenance in the collagen group versus placebo (between-group percent change difference, p=0.002). Both groups achieved comparable Glogau classification improvements (23.9% versus 20.6%). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Daily hydrolyzed collagen supplementation with supportive nutrients effectively prevented skin surface parameter deterioration in Thai women, demonstrating meaningful preservation of skin integrity through medium effect sizes for key parameters. These findings support nutritional approaches as complementary strategies for photoaging management in high ultraviolet-exposure populations&lt;/p&gt;
