Vitamin C, Collagen, and Hyaluronic Acid – The Skin Trinity Explained
At B.LAB, we believe in truth over trends, and nowhere is that more evident than in our ingredient philosophy. While the beauty world is saturated with miracle claims, our formulations are rooted in dermatological science — focused not on what’s popular, but on what works.
In our AgeBiome™ rituals, one formulation stands out for its precision and synergy: the HVC Serum. It combines Vitamin C, Collagen Peptides, and Hyaluronic Acid — a scientifically harmonized trio that targets the biological root causes of ageing.
This article explores why these three ingredients form the cornerstone of rejuvenation — and why their synergy is greater than the sum of their parts.
Why These Three? A Strategic Formulation Philosophy
Ageing isn’t caused by a single factor — and no single ingredient can reverse it. The HVC Serum is designed to address three fundamental breakdowns in the ageing process:
- Structural weakening of collagen networks
- Dehydration and loss of volume
- Oxidative damage and reduced regeneration signaling
Here’s how each ingredient performs — and why they were chosen together.
Vitamin C: The Defender and Activator
Vitamin C is far more than a brightening agent. In the AgeBiome™ system, it functions as a biological activator:
- Boosts collagen synthesis by activating fibroblasts in the dermis
- Neutralizes free radicals, preventing oxidative breakdown of skin structures
- Brightens uneven tone, caused by slow cellular turnover
Its inclusion in HVC Serum accelerates the retraining of cellular memory, especially when paired with DEJ-targeting massage or microneedling.
“Vitamin C is the ignition key for dermal rejuvenation — it helps your skin remember how to repair itself.”
Collagen Peptides: The Architectural Rebuilders
With age, your skin’s collagen production slows significantly. Collagen peptides in the AgeBiome™ formulation serve two vital roles:
- Reinforce the extracellular matrix (ECM) by delivering ready-to-use fragments
- Signal fibroblasts to increase new collagen formation
In professional AgeBiome™ rituals, collagen peptides are strategically layered after exfoliation or microchanneling to penetrate the DEJ and begin restoration at the foundational level.
Hyaluronic Acid: The Volumizer and Conductor
Think of Hyaluronic Acid as the conductor of hydration — ensuring every layer of skin has the moisture it needs to function optimally.
- Attracts up to 1000x its weight in water, instantly plumping fine lines
- Improves elasticity and skin resilience, reducing sensitivity and rough texture
- Acts as a penetration enhancer, allowing other actives to work deeper
In the HVC Serum, HA plays both functional and sensory roles, making the formula feel luxurious while delivering clinical hydration.
The Synergy: Why Together Matters More Than Separately
Each of these ingredients performs well on its own — but together, they create a multi-layered effect that aligns with the AgeBiome™ mission: to rebuild skin from the root zones up.
- Vitamin C protects and signals
- Collagen peptides rebuild and reinforce
- Hyaluronic Acid hydrates and delivers
This synergy ensures that results are not just surface-level — they’re biological, cumulative, and measurable.
Found in Rituals and at Home: Where to Experience the Skin Trinity
You’ll find the HVC formulation used:
- In-clinic: As a part of the Derma Reboot Ritual, infused during the serum and massage phase
- At-home: Within the AgeBiome™ Reset Kit, for continued daily stimulation of collagen and hydration response
- In booster form: Paired with microneedling or device-led treatments for clients seeking enhanced results
Backed by Science. Guided by Ritual.
This is the B.LAB difference: not just premium ingredients, but clinically-backed combinations, applied in professionally guided rituals that mirror your skin’s natural processes.
Because real transformation doesn’t come from trends.
It comes from science that works with your biology — not against it.
