Acetyl Hexapeptide-3/8

Acetyl hexapeptide-3 is a synthetic anti-aging cosmetic peptide derived from natural proteins. This peptide has been attributed to decreasing wrinkle formation by binding to the SNARE-receptor thus blocking the production of neurotransmitter which then reduces facial muscle contraction.Acetyl hexapeptide-3, otherwise known as argireline, effectively reduces the depth of wrinkles, especially around the forehead and eyes, caused by the repeated contraction of facial muscles.
