Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide 7

collagen production anti-ageing

overview

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is a synthetic peptide that works by reducing the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6), a signal molecule that promotes inflammation in the skin. It is attached to palmitic acid to increase oil solubility and skin penetration. It works in synergy with Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 in the Matrixyl 3000 complex to reduce inflammation and slow down the degradation of collagen, resulting in younger-looking skin.

additional info

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is often used in combination with other anti-aging ingredients, such as retinol and hyaluronic acid. Matrixyl 3000 is a messenger peptide that uses two matrikines to tell your skin to help restore the skin's youthful appearance. It helps diminish the look of fine lines and wrinkles while lifting and firming. Matrixyl 3000 is known as one of the most reputable skincare ingredients available and received the 25 years of Innovation award from in-cosmetics. Clinical scientific studies show you can get 5-10 years back with rapid results by focusing on senescence markers and the fragile dermal network. When applied, the messenger peptides tell your skin to act its real age fast, reversing the effects of premature aging due to sun exposure, free radicals, and environmental pollution. As a result, your skin receives a signaling message to work quickly and sends a youth boost. Matrixyl 3000 has two amino acid strands that target dull life-less complexions for ageless, youthful-looking skin. It is a peptide that visibly improves rough texture, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and helps restore the skin's youthful appearance for a timeless complexion. The Ordinary Buffet serum contains 5 peptides, including Matrixyl 3000, Syn-Ake and Agirelox, which are known to boost collagen production and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. There’s also a Probiotic complex (with lactococcus lactis lysate), which helps in renewing skin. These ingredients are blended in a base of 11 amino acids and hyaluronic acid complexes.
