Anti aging peptides boost collagen for smoother skin

Many anti aging skin care products contain peptides. But what are they?

Skincare and Latest Anti-Aging Breakthrough: Peptides in Skin Care Productsreports:

“Most commonly, peptides appear in anti-aging products, including day and night-time creams, eye creams and serums. Peptides can be found in cleansers, exfoliating products and peels. If used following a procedure or topical treatment, copper peptides can minimize any skin irritation and maximize results.

Overall, because all peptides boost collagen, expect to see smooth, supple, younger-looking skin. For the most part, peptide products are safe on all skin types, even sensitive skin. However, pregnant women should be cautious with any skincare product, so it’s important to consult with a doctor.

For instance, some peptide products use additional ingredients that might be harmful for moms-to-be. Also of note: Because Argireline works on relaxing facial muscles, Smart SkinCare points out that it might contribute to sagging skin and recommends that those prone to facial sagging monitor their skin while using the product.”
