Palmitoyl pentapeptide-3 by Skinactives

Palmitoyl pentapeptide-3

(Matrixyl Peptide)

$10.50/ 2 ml.

Active in Strivectin, marketed under tradename Matrixyl

We have taken the peptide marketed in solution as Matrixyl and created our our superconcentrate solution. Our solution can be used more effectively in home made creams as it is less disruptive to the consistency of the cream.

Skin Actives recomends the use of Dermagen instead of this peptide because besides acting as a signal it also supplies nutrition in the form of peptides that can be used to make our own collagen.

Customers should also consider using our natural active peptides in combination with this peptide solution.

Properties: This is the lipopeptide in Strivectin. All you need to make your own is mix this active with a base cream (containing hyaluronic acid, another great active) and mix. Pal-KTTKS is a synthetic pentapeptide derivative was designed to mimic a natural matrikine. Matrikines, small peptides formed when the dermis proteins are damaged and degraded, are cell messengers able to regulate the sequence of events required for skin repair and wound healing. They will induce synthesis and increase the activity of enzymes involved in healing, leading to increased synthesis of collagen and other skin molecules.

Use: you will receive a 2 mL. tube with ultra-concentrated palmitoyl pentapeptide; keep in the refrigerator (not the freezer) until needed. Mix the contents of the transporting tube into 8 oz. of lotion or cream (to get Strivectin's concentration) or into 4 oz. to get an even more powerful cream.

Further information: this is the the active ingredient in Strivectin™. The actual structure of the molecule is N2-(1-oxohexadecyl)-L-lysyl-L-threonyl-L-threonyl-L-lysyl- L-Serine, abbreviated as Pal-KTTKS (K for lysine, T for threonine, S for serine). Amino acids are the subunits that make up a protein. Amino acids can join each other in a peptide bond: two amino acids joined in a peptide bond constitute a dipeptide, three a tripeptide, a five a pentapeptide. A protein can be made up of just one or several polypeptides.

Clients interested in Pal-KTTKS may also be interested in Skin Actives natural active peptides, a powder, or in Dermagen, a concentrated solution of peptides and hyaluronic acid.

Make a super concentrate cream by mixing the contents of the 2ml. tube into 4oz of cream.
