In simple terms: collagen helps skin look bouncy and supported, elastin helps it look springy and resilient
Still, observable findings in study data typically follow a staged timeline: early physiological markers within the first one to two weeks, and measurable body-composition changes generally appearing over a four-to-eight-week research window
In particular, immunophenotyping can help characterize host immune profiles (e.g., inflammatory versus regulatory states), which may influence responsiveness to microbiome-based interventions such as fecal microbiota transplantation
It is also recommended that patients be aware and avoid touching or rubbing the area after treatment
