Collagen loaded nano-sized surfactant based dispersion for topical application: formulation development, characterization and safety study.

Collagen, a high molecular weight, hydrophilic and highly abundant protein is known to have anti-ageing, anti-wrinkle, anti-acne, anti-scar and wound healing properties. High molecular weight and hydrophilic nature hinder its effective topical delivery. So, the objective of present study was to develop effective topical nano-surfactant dispersion (NSD) for collagen delivery.
