METHIONYL SH-POLYPEPTIDE-9 DECAPEPTIDE-40

Description

Methionyl SH-Polypeptide-9 Decapeptide-40 is an advanced synthetic peptide complex designed to target multiple aspects of skin aging and repair. This biomimetic compound combines a methionine-modified polypeptide with a specific decapeptide sequence, engineered to penetrate the skin's outer layers effectively.

The polypeptide component stimulates collagen production and enhances skin elasticity, while the decapeptide sequence focuses on cellular repair and protection against oxidative stress. Clinical studies have shown that this ingredient can significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles within 4-8 weeks of regular use.

Methionyl SH-Polypeptide-9 Decapeptide-40 also exhibits potent antioxidant properties, neutralizing free radicals and mitigating environmental damage to skin cells. Its unique molecular structure allows for improved stability in various skincare formulations, maintaining efficacy across a range of pH levels.

This peptide complex is particularly effective in addressing photoaging concerns, promoting a more even skin tone and improved skin texture. It is generally well-tolerated by most skin types and can be incorporated into serums, creams, and other topical treatments aimed at comprehensive anti-aging care.
