A neuropeptide complex that works by modulating neuromuscular activity to visibly reduce facial expression lines. Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 mimics the SNAP-25 N-terminal domain, preventing SNARE complex formation and thereby reducing acetylcholine release. This results in smoother skin and a relaxed facial appearance without the need for injections.
Peptide Type: Neurotransmission-modulating peptide
Cat Number: PLS-BIO-002

II. PREPARATION / RECONSTITUTION |
|
|
General Guidance |
Reconstitute with 1 mL sterile distilled water or buffer (pH 6–7), to obtain 100 mg/mL concentration. Gently mix until fully dissolved. |
|
Recommendations |
Avoid vigorous shaking and multiple freeze–thaw cycles. Add directly to the aqueous phase of formulations. |
|
III. MECHANISM & BIOLOGICAL FUNCTION |
|
|
Mechanism of Action |
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 mimics the N-terminal domain of SNAP-25, competing with natural SNAP-25 for SNARE complex formation. This reduces neurotransmitter release at neuromuscular junctions, decreasing muscle contraction and expression wrinkles. |
|
Biological Claims |
Reduces the depth of facial wrinkles, especially in the forehead and eye areas; provides a Botox-like smoothing effect without muscle paralysis. |
|
IV. APPLICATIONS |
|
|
Intended Uses |
Anti-aging serums, wrinkle-reducing creams, eye contour formulations, dermal relaxant products. |
