Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Descriptions

Acetyl hexapeptide-8 is a synthetically produced short-chain peptide composed of six amino acids. It is widely known as a Botox-like peptide in the cosmetics industry.

Acetyl hexapeptide-8 is inspired by the mechanism of action of Botulinum Toxin, but it exerts its effects by mimicking the N-terminal fragment of the natural protein SNAP-25 rather than cleaving proteins like botulinum toxin.

Compared with injectable botulinum toxin, acetyl hexapeptide-8 has extremely high safety, no neurotoxicity, does not cause complete facial muscle paralysis, and has minimal side effects. It is currently one of the most widely used and thoroughly researched anti-wrinkle peptides in the world and is commonly used in high-end anti-aging skincare products.

Skin peptide formulation

Formulation Guidelines

Recommended use level: 0.01%-0.2%

pH Range: 5.0 - 7.0.

Compatible with most moisturizers (glycerin, hyaluronic acid), thickeners, and preservatives.

Can be combined with other peptides such as copper peptides (GHK-Cu) and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 to get better skincare effects.

Can be used with retinol (Vitamin A) and vitamin C derivatives, but attention must be paid to the overall stability of the formulation and irritation control.
