Acetyl heptapeptide-4 is a synthetic peptide consisting of 7 amino acids with an acetyl group at the N-terminus. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that play vital roles in a variety of biological processes, including cell signaling, tissue repair, and collagen synthesis. Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is designed to mimic the activity of natural peptides in the skin, promoting skin regeneration and anti-aging effects.
Acetyl Heptapeptide-4, as a bioactive ingredient, can stimulate collagen synthesis, enhance skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and help improve skin firmness and elasticity. Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 has been shown to speed up the skin repair and wound healing process. It also promotes the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, a key molecule in maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 has moisturizing properties that help enhance the skin's natural barrier function, prevent transepidermal water loss and maintain optimal Optimal hydration levels. This peptide also stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), molecules that attract and bind moisture in the skin. Acetyl heptapeptide-4 has been shown to inhibit the activity of tyrosinase (an enzyme involved in melanin synthesis) and regulate the distribution of melanin in the skin. Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is also used in hair care products for its beneficial effects on hair growth and scalp health. It stimulates hair follicle activity, promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation, and enhances scalp blood circulation, thereby improving hair growth and thickness. Additionally, Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe and calm the scalp, reducing itching, irritation, and dandruff
