TRIPEPTIDE-18
Description
Tripeptide-18 is a synthetic peptide composed of three amino acids specifically designed to target fine lines and wrinkles. This innovative ingredient functions by mimicking the action of thrombospondin I, a protein that plays a crucial role in skin repair and regeneration.
Tripeptide-18 works primarily by inhibiting the contraction of muscle fibers responsible for expression lines, effectively reducing the appearance of wrinkles. It also stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity. Clinical studies have shown that Tripeptide-18 can significantly decrease wrinkle depth and improve overall skin texture when used consistently over time.
This peptide is particularly effective in addressing crow's feet, forehead lines, and nasolabial folds. Its small molecular size allows for efficient penetration into the skin, maximizing its efficacy. Tripeptide-18 is well-tolerated by most skin types and can be safely incorporated into various skincare formulations, including serums, creams, and eye treatments.
When combined with other anti-aging ingredients such as antioxidants or hyaluronic acid, Tripeptide-18 can provide comprehensive skin rejuvenation benefits. Regular use may result in smoother, more youthful-looking skin with improved firmness and reduced visible signs of aging.
