Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9

Explained

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9 is a signal peptide. Signal peptides tell your skin to create collagen or start tissue repair.

This peptide plays a role in key skin components such as collagen, lumican, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Lumican is used in collagen organization and regulation, while GAGs are a component that holds water in our skin.

The manufacturer claims this ingredient is effective at firming the skin and enhancing skin hydration.
