Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is a synthetic cosmetic peptide commonly used in skin care formulations for its role in supporting skin conditioning and formulation functionality. It is supplied as a standardized active ingredient suitable for use in emulsions, serums, and other topical cosmetic products. The ingredient is intended for professional use by formulators and manufacturers in compliance with global cosmetic regulations.
Mechanism of Action (MOA)
Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is a synthetic signaling peptide designed to interact with skin-relevant cellular communication pathways. In cosmetic applications, it is understood to participate in modulation of cell signaling processes associated with skin surface homeostasis. The acetylated structure enhances molecular stability and compatibility within topical formulations. Its activity is based on peptide–receptor interactions commonly referenced in cosmetic peptide research, supporting its use as a functional bioactive ingredient in non-therapeutic skincare formulations.
Acetyl Heptapeptide-4 is suitable for use in a variety of topical cosmetic formulations focused on skin care applications.
- Facial creams and lotions- Anti-aging skincare formulations- Serums and ampoules- Eye area cosmetic products- Emulsions and gel-based systems- Professional-use cosmetic formulations
