Description:
Acetyl hexapeptide-3, otherwise known as argireline is a synthetic anti-aging cosmetic peptide derived from natural proteins.1 Its mechanism of action is competing with SNAP-25 to SNARE complex. 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.2 It has been used as a replacement for botox. Formulations with 10% concentration acetyl hexapeptide 3 have been shown to reduce the depth of wrinkles up to 30% after 30 days of trial use.3
