Science
Mechanism of Action
This peptide acts as a biomimetic messenger, signaling skin cells by mimicking natural growth factors. It binds to specific receptors to activate repair processes, stimulating the production of extracellular matrix proteins like collagen and elastin, and strengthening the skin barrier.
