What it is
Explained
Acetyl Octapeptide-3 is a synthetic peptide. It is often called a botox alternative due to its ability to restrict the movement of muscles, and thus reduce the appearance of fine-lines.
While this peptide can help reduce wrinkles and fine-lines, the research is lacking in it being as effective as botox.
All current studies for this ingredient are either from manufacturers or look at amounts far greater than in actual products.
