I am wondering if a device that vibrates the skin on the face is a good thing to help produce collagen, and to correct wrinkles. Should we vibrate the skin? Maybe massaging the skin on the face helps create collagen.
Would love opinions. Thanks.

Yes it does help the more vibrashon the more it helps your skin it helps by vibrateing cells and the sells repair your body
Collagen synthesis is an area of intense research in dermatology and plastic surgery. There have been numerous studies evaluating any number of products and devices in both lab animals and in people. The quick answer to your question is that yes, any mechanical impact into your skin does seem to induce collagen synthesis at the microscopic level. Unfortunately, it doesn’t translate into a visible decrease in wrinkles. No study has every proven a mechanical device to improve appearance and cause a reduction in wrinkles. We would be the first to adopt such a product if it became available.
The only products that have been definitively proven to induce collagen synthesis and visibly reduce wrinkling are the tretinoin skin creams (such as Retin A). A long term study published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1993 showed it improved collagen production by 245% over baseline.
If someone is trying to sell you a device to improve facial wrinkling, simply ask for a copy of the scientific study that proves it. If you have problems understanding it, take it to your physician and they can evaluate the quality of the scientific analysis and let you know if it has any benefit. I hope this helps.
