1. DESCRIPTION OF ACETYL-HEXAPEPTIDE-8 / ARGIRELINE® / ACETYL HEXAPEPTIDE 3:
Acetyl-Hexapeptide-8, also known as Argireline®, is a highly effective anti-wrinkle peptide in skincare. This synthetic peptide is specifically designed to reduce muscle contractions in the face, making it an effective agent against wrinkles and fine lines. Argireline® offers a gentle and safe alternative to Botulinum Toxin A by utilizing similar mechanisms but without invasive procedures.
2. EFFECT OF ACETYL-HEXAPEPTIDE-8 / ARGIRELINE®:
Argireline® works by reducing the intensity of muscle contractions in the face, leading to a reduction in wrinkle formation. It is the only anti-wrinkle peptide with clinically proven effects that can reduce wrinkle depth by up to 50%. This effect is achieved through external application without causing toxic reactions. Argireline® softens facial expressions without completely immobilizing the muscles, thus offering a more natural alternative to wrinkle reduction.
3. USE OF ACETYL-HEXAPEPTIDE-8 / ARGIRELINE®:
Acetyl-Hexapeptide-8 is included in various skincare products such as serums, eye creams, and night creams. It is primarily used in anti-aging products to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, especially in the forehead and eye area. Products with Argireline® are ideal for daily skincare to promote smooth and youthful-looking skin.
