4 Months Out From
Major Shoulder Surgery.
Bicep reattachment. Rotator cuff repair. The kind of surgery that comes with a long list of milestones — and an even longer list of timelines. The kind where you lie in a sling wondering if your shoulder will ever feel like yours again.
Four months in, my physical therapist is genuinely surprised by my range of motion and how fast I'm progressing. Is it my dedication to PT? Absolutely. But I also started taking Amare NeuCollagen — and I'm not willing to stop to find out what happens without it.
"Maybe it's the PT. Maybe it's the collagen. Either way, I'm not stopping."
Here's what I know for sure: collagen production starts declining in your mid-20s — by about 1% a year. By your 40s and 50s, women can lose up to 30% of skin collagen in just the first five years of menopause. That affects everything — joints, skin elasticity, muscle recovery, mood.
I'm not interested in aging passively. I want to feel strong, move well, look like myself, and stay sharp. NeuCollagen isn't a shortcut — it's the science-backed daily habit that supports all of it. One stick. Tastes like a juicy berry. Done.
This is what aging well actually looks like.
