COPPER PALMITOYL HEPTAPEPTIDE-14.

Valuable / SKIN CONDITIONING

Copper Palmitoyl Heptapeptide-14 is a precision peptide delivered via an encapsulated 'Cosmetic Drone' system, engineered to specifically target fibroblasts. It is clinically shown to significantly enhance skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, contributing to overall skin rejuvenation.

Science

Mechanism of Action

This advanced ingredient utilizes 'The Cosmetic Drone' delivery system to guide the Copper Palmitoyl Heptapeptide-14 directly to fibroblast cells within the dermis. Upon reaching these key cells, the peptide activates gene expression for both collagen and elastin, two fundamental proteins critical for maintaining skin firmness and suppleness. The inherent copper ion further supports vital physiological processes such as angiogenesis, skin regeneration, and wound healing, while the peptide itself functions as a biomimetic signal to stimulate the skin's natural repair mechanisms.
