Science
Mechanism of Action
As a member of the peptide family, NICOTINOYL PENTAPEPTIDE-46 is believed to signal the skin to activate its endogenous repair processes. This signaling is thought to stimulate the regeneration of mature skin cells, strengthen the skin's structural integrity, and potentially lead to a visible reduction in the appearance of wrinkles, thereby improving overall complexion and elasticity. Analogous peptides are recognized for their role in skin conditioning and protection.
