Stress, environmental damage and aging cause our bodies to produce less collagen over time. Collagen is what helps to keep our skin looking firm and resilient. Peptides, which are fragments of proteins, help to stimulate collagen production which gives us that youthful appearance.
Argireline, also known as Acetyl Hexapeptide - 3, is a popular peptide used in topical anti-wrinkle products that offers similar effects to Botox injections. Like Botox, Argireline helps to paralyze muscle contractions, thus reducing the appearance of expression lines. Since Argireline reduces muscle contractions it has also been shown to help prevent the formation of new lines and wrinkles.
