A number of skin care products in the market now contain peptides. If you want to reap the rewards of this ingredient, stick with products that are not easily washed off the face. Compared to cleansers, serums and moisturizers are better, as they stay on the skin and not immediately washed off.
There are also different types of peptides and each one offers specific skin care benefits. Signal peptides, for instance, deliver messages to the skin to promote the production of essential proteins. There are also carrier peptides that send minerals to the skin to boost collagen production and neurotransmitter peptides that can smooth the appearance of wrinkles.
If you’re thinking of adding a peptide-infused product into your skin care regimen, here are some of the benefits you might enjoy.
Neurotransmitter peptides have smoothing or Botox-like effects that can relax the appearance of wrinkles. These peptides work by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles and blocking the communication within the nerve and the muscles. This helps prevent the contractions that cause wrinkle formation.
Another type of peptides called signal peptides assist in boosting collagen production. Peptides can penetrate the skin’s top layers, sending signals to the cells to create more collagen and other essential proteins. This helps in increasing the firmness and suppleness of your skin.
This is especially true for peptide-infused products with hyaluronic acid (HA) and other vitamins. HA is a clear, jelly-like substance (or molecule) that is naturally found in the body. Anti-aging products with HA can plump up the skin, as well as help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
At Cutis Laser Clinics in Singapore, we have the Multi Peptide Essence, which is an expert formulation that contains powerful peptides. It can combat the visual signs of aging, as well as nourish and hydrate the skin.
This product also contains a combination of hyaluronic acid and seaweed extract. This infuses the skin with a boost of hydration and helps ensure the maximum delivery of the potent peptides. It also offers an additional benefit of plumping up the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
