AMINOLEVULINOYL TRIPEPTIDE-35

Description

AMINOLEVULINOYL TRIPEPTIDE-35 is a novel peptide compound that has garnered significant attention in the skincare industry for its potential anti-aging and skin-rejuvenating properties. This synthetic tripeptide consists of three amino acids combined with aminolevulinic acid, a precursor to heme in the body.

The ingredient works by stimulating collagen production and enhancing cellular energy metabolism. It activates specific pathways within skin cells, promoting the synthesis of key structural proteins like collagen and elastin. This process helps improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall texture.

AMINOLEVULINOYL TRIPEPTIDE-35 has demonstrated efficacy in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes and mouth. It also shows promise in improving skin tone and brightness by supporting cellular turnover and repair mechanisms.

In formulations, this ingredient is typically used at low concentrations due to its potency. It is compatible with various skincare bases and can be incorporated into serums, creams, and other topical products. While generally well-tolerated, as with any active ingredient, patch testing is recommended to ensure individual skin compatibility.
