Heptapeptide is a synthetic peptide consisting of seven amino acids, designed for use as an active ingredient in cosmetic formulations. Recognized for its role in supporting skin conditioning and improving the appearance of skin texture, it is suitable for a range of topical applications, including facial care and anti-aging products. Heptapeptide is compatible with various formulation types and aligns with global cosmetic regulatory standards.
Mechanism of Action (MOA)
Heptapeptide, a synthetic bioactive peptide composed of seven amino acids, interacts with skin cells by modulating cellular signaling pathways involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) maintenance. It is known to influence the expression of key ECM components such as collagen and fibronectin by engaging specific cell surface receptors. This signaling may support the skin's structural integrity and overall appearance through biochemical communication, aligning with pathways associated with skin homeostasis and renewal.
Heptapeptide is suitable for incorporation into a variety of cosmetic formulations to enhance product offerings. - Facial serums and emulsions - Eye contour creams and gels - Lightweight lotions for daily use - Leave-on masks and overnight treatments - Specialized ampoules or booster concentrates - Sheet masks and hydrogel patches - Makeup primers with skincare benefits
