OLIGOPEPTIDE-91 RH-OLIGOPEPTIDE-1

Description

Oligopeptide-91 and rh-Oligopeptide-1 are synthetic peptides engineered to target specific skin concerns. These biomimetic compounds are designed to mimic naturally occurring peptides in the skin, offering potent anti-aging and skin-rejuvenating properties.

Oligopeptide-91 is a signal peptide that stimulates collagen production and enhances extracellular matrix formation. It works by activating fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing structural proteins in the skin. This peptide has been shown to improve skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and promote a more youthful complexion.

Rh-Oligopeptide-1, also known as Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), is a recombinant human oligopeptide that plays a crucial role in cell regeneration and wound healing. It stimulates cell proliferation and migration, accelerating the skin's natural repair processes. This peptide is particularly effective in addressing signs of photoaging, improving skin texture, and enhancing overall skin health.

Both peptides are typically used in low concentrations in skincare formulations due to their high potency. They are often combined with other active ingredients to create comprehensive anti-aging solutions, suitable for various skin types and concerns.
