TETRAPEPTIDE-28

Description

Tetrapeptide-28 is an innovative synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids, specifically designed to target skin aging concerns. This advanced skincare ingredient works at the cellular level to promote collagen production and enhance skin firmness. Its unique molecular structure allows for efficient penetration into the deeper layers of the skin, where it can exert its beneficial effects.

Clinical studies have shown that Tetrapeptide-28 can significantly improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It accomplishes this by stimulating fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin. Additionally, this peptide has demonstrated the ability to inhibit glycation, a process that contributes to skin aging by cross-linking collagen fibers.

Tetrapeptide-28 is typically incorporated into serums, creams, and other topical formulations at concentrations ranging from 0.5% to 2%. It is well-tolerated by most skin types and can be combined with other anti-aging ingredients for synergistic effects. Regular use of products containing Tetrapeptide-28 can lead to visible improvements in skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance within 4-8 weeks of consistent application.
