What Exactly Is Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 & Dipeptide-2?

Here's what you're putting on your skin — and why we love it.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is a synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids linked to palmitic acid. It is engineered to mimic the body's natural processes, specifically targeting inflammation and collagen breakdown. Dipeptide-2, on the other hand, is a two-amino-acid peptide that focuses on reducing fluid retention and puffiness, particularly around the delicate eye area.

These peptides are celebrated in the skincare realm for their ability to mitigate visible signs of ageing and enhance the skin's overall resilience. Their inclusion in advanced formulations is a testament to their efficacy and elegance, providing a scientifically-backed approach to skincare rejuvenation.

What Happens When Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 & Dipeptide-2 Touches Your Skin

Understanding the process helps you get better results at home and in the treatment room.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 works by modulating the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. By reducing these cytokines, it helps to alleviate chronic inflammation, a key contributor to ageing and skin degradation. Additionally, it stimulates the production of collagen, the protein responsible for maintaining skin's structure and firmness.

Dipeptide-2 operates by enhancing lymphatic circulation, which effectively reduces fluid retention and decreases puffiness. This action is particularly beneficial for the under-eye area, where fluid accumulation can lead to visible swelling and dark circles. Together, these peptides offer a comprehensive approach to maintaining youthful, radiant skin.
