Argireline® Peptide Solution NP

One of the most striking signs of aging is the increase of wrinkles on the face. This can occur naturally over time and is caused by certain biochemical, histological, and physiological changes that are amplified by environmental exposure and other secondary factors such as the pull of gravity or repeated facial movements due to the contraction of muscles of facial expression. Muscles are contracted when the vesicle in the motor neuron releases a neurotransmitter.

Argireline® Peptide mimics the N-terminal end of SNAP-25 and competes in vitro with the natural protein for a position in the SNARE complex. As demonstrated in vivo, this peptide is capable of a visual improvement of wrinkle appearance.

• Decreased appearance of wrinkle volume and length just after 1 week.
• Average volume diminished by 20.6% and average length by 15.9% (statistically significant). 
• Average reduction of 17% in wrinkle depth after 15 days.

Argireline® Peptide can be incorporated into cosmetic formulations intended to improve the appearance of deep lines or wrinkles on the forehead or around the eyes.
