Copper peptides are compounds that include copper ions and protein fragments. In skincare, copper peptides play a pivotal role for their potential benefits.
Retinol definitely works as a star ingredient in fighting the appearance of aging signs. Copper peptides have recently become relatively popular as an alternative to retinol – and for a reason.
Are copper peptides suitable for all skin types?
Yes, copper peptide is safe to be used on any skin type. Sensitive skin type benefits the best from the ingredient, since it does not lead to purging of the skin.
How do copper peptides contribute to collagen production in the skin?
Copper peptides contribute to collagen production by activating the skin’s natural processes. They stimulate fibroblasts, the cell responsible for producing collagen, elastin, and other components of the extracellular matrix.
Do copper peptide peptides offer any other benefits beyond anti-aging?
Yes. Copper peptides do not simply help in the reduction of appearance of signs of aging, it also helps in healing of wound and works good on skin prone to hyperpigmentation.
