Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is used in formulas as a wrinkle preventative as well as
a wrinkle reducer as an alternative to injections. It is an
optimal ingredient in pregnancy stretch
mark prevention.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is a mimic of the N-terminal end of SNAP-25, one of three
proteins (known as the SNARE complex) that are essential for neurotransmitter
release at the synapsis, which is the chemical signal for a muscle to contract.
As a wrinkle reducer, studies have shown that Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 at a 10%
concentration was able to significantly decrease the depth of wrinkles after 30
days of treatment. The mechanism by which Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is able to
accomplish this is related to the ways in which Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is able to
assist wrinkle prevention.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 performs this activity in two
distinct ways:
The first way Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 acts as a wrinkle preventative
is by competing with SNAP-25 for a position in the SNARE complex. This
destabilizes the SNARE complex, preventing the vesicle from releasing
neurotransmitters efficiently, and therefore attenuating muscle contraction.
This causes a reduction in facial muscle contraction, which is believed to help
prevent the long-term formation of lines and wrinkles.
The second way that Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 acts as a wrinkle preventative is by reducing the release
of catecholamines (the overproduction of which is known to induce the formation
of wrinkles and fine lines in the skin), specifically adrenaline and noradrenaline. Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 is non-toxic and well tolerated by the skin.
