ACETYL SH-DECAPEPTIDE-4 SP AMIDE TRIFLUOROACETATE

Description

Acetyl SH-Decapeptide-4 SP Amide Trifluoroacetate is a synthetic peptide designed for advanced skincare applications. This biomimetic compound is engineered to mimic the natural processes of skin regeneration and repair. Its structure consists of a chain of ten amino acids, modified with an acetyl group and a trifluoroacetate salt for enhanced stability and penetration.

The peptide functions by stimulating the production of key dermal components, including collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. It targets fibroblasts, the cells responsible for synthesizing these essential skin matrix proteins. By activating these cells, Acetyl SH-Decapeptide-4 SP Amide Trifluoroacetate helps improve skin firmness, elasticity, and hydration.

Clinical studies have shown this ingredient to be effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, enhancing skin texture, and promoting overall skin rejuvenation. Its small molecular size allows for efficient penetration into the deeper layers of the skin, where it can exert its beneficial effects.

This peptide is typically used in anti-aging formulations, serums, and targeted treatments. It is compatible with various skincare ingredients and can be incorporated into both water-based and oil-based formulations.
