Description

Acetyl Octapeptide-3, is a high-quality water-soluble oligopeptide for cosmetic use, especially in anti-aging applications. The use of Acetyl Octapeptide-3 helps to diminish lines and visible signs of aging. It is from octapeptide-3 and acetic acid. supports anti-wrinkle effects caused by contraction of muscles of facial expressions, decreasing neuronal excitability by SNARE complex destabilization. The primary role of SNARE proteins is to mediate vesicle fusion with the target membrane. Acetyl Octapeptide-3 is a non-toxic molecule that mimics the action of BoNTs (Botulinum neurotoxins) and therefore their remarkable anti-wrinkle activity. The use of Acetyl Octapeptide-3 softens fine lines and helps to prevent further wrinkle development. Acetyl Octapeptid-3 is a medically safe, topical, and painless alternative to BoNTs without the rigid mask effect of the mimics.
