Cosmetic and dermatological peptides are specialized bioactive molecules used in skincare and cosmetic products to improve skin health, enhance appearance, and promote anti-aging effects. These peptides have gained popularity in the beauty industry for their ability to stimulate collagen production, enhance skin hydration, and reduce signs of aging. They work through various mechanisms, including modulating cellular activity, promoting wound healing, and improving skin barrier function.

Matrixyl (Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4): Known for its anti-wrinkle properties, Matrixyl stimulates collagen synthesis, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It enhances skin firmness and elasticity.

Argireline (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8): Often referred to as a “Botox-like” peptide, Argireline inhibits neurotransmitter release, reducing muscle contraction and the formation of expression lines and wrinkles.

GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide): A tripeptide that promotes wound healing and skin regeneration. GHK-Cu enhances collagen production, improves skin elasticity, and reduces inflammation.

Syn-Ake (Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate): Mimics the effects of snake venom to inhibit muscle contractions, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Hyaluronic Acid Peptides: Peptides that stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid, improving skin hydration and plumpness, reducing dryness and fine lines.

Tripeptide-1 (Glycine-Histidine-Lysine): Also known as “Collagen Peptide,” it promotes skin regeneration and repair, enhancing skin texture and resilience.

Tetrapeptide-21: Stimulates extracellular matrix production, including collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, leading to improved skin firmness and elasticity.
