Mechanism of Action (MOA)
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 is a biomimetic signaling peptide designed to support cellular communication pathways associated with skin structure. It interacts with key receptors involved in the synthesis and organization of extracellular matrix components, such as collagen and elastin. By modulating cellular signaling cascades, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 helps maintain the functional integrity of the skin's architecture, contributing to the appearance of improved skin resilience and firmness.
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 is suitable for incorporation into a variety of cosmetic formulations targeting skin care.
- Recommended for use in facial creams, lotions, and serums- Can be included in formulations for body care products- Compatible with emulsions and gel-based systems- Suitable for daily-use skincare routines- Suggested inclusion levels typically range from 1% to 5%- Stable in both oil-in-water and water-in-oil formulations
