Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Ac-EEMQRR-NH₂ · sometimes labeled acetyl hexapeptide-3
Origin
A short fragment modeled on SNAP-25, a protein nerves use to signal muscles to contract.
In studies
Studies report smaller expression lines, better elasticity and better hydration.
On market
Since 2001.
Where the evidence stopsNo study has compared it directly with injectables. It passes through the skin poorly, and it's unclear how much reaches muscle.
