WHAT ARE PEPTIDES?

Peptides are the mini-proteins, the short chains of amino acids typically comprising 2-50 amino acids that help regulate cell division and gene expression. They’re also a big part of our repair kit for every tissue and organ in our body. For example, they’re essential for healing, bone and muscle regeneration, sleep regulation, and weight loss.

The human body naturally produces more than 7,000 known peptide types, which are used in a wide variety of the body’s systems. Their biological role as molecules is to signal to other cells in the body how to function and metabolize. While peptides are natural, they can also be produced artificially outside the body for healing and repair. Unlike chemical drugs, peptides preserve the body’s natural feedback loops and restore our natural balanced state.

In skin care, peptides are best known for stimulating skin repair and supporting pro-aging efforts. And they don’t have the irritating effects that more potent skin care ingredients, like retinoids, can have. Instead, peptides generally work by telling other cells to perform tasks like increasing collagen or elastin production. This is essential because the body’s production of collagen and elastin decline after age 20. Peptides also support a healthy skin barrier and promote the healing of wounds.

“As far as skin goes, GHK-Cu takes your skin fibroblasts which are the STEM cells of the skin, and encourages them to produce things as though they were younger cells.”

Vitali’s Restoracell Products Use Four DifferentPeptides As Part Of Our Proprietary Formulas.

  • 1

    PEPTIDE

    Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu)

    Copper Peptides (GHK-Cu) are small, naturally occurring protein fragments that easily penetrate the dermis with a high affinity for copper ions, critical to body function. They also play an essential role in maintaining healthy-looking skin.

    Copper Peptides work as a signal, triggering the skin’s stem cells to produce collagen and elastin. Both give our skin elasticity, allowing the enzymes to firm, smooth, and soften the skin. In addition, by hydrating and regenerating skin cells, Copper Peptides can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and help with evening out skin tone.

    In addition, Copper Peptides combat free radical oxidative damage, a key to preventing the visible signs of aging. Copper Peptides are a primary ingredient in the Restoracell Skin Cell Restorative Serum, Skin Awakening Moisturizer, Advanced Eye & Lash Formula, and Restorative Body Cream.

    PEPTIDE

    Palmitoyl Tripeptide (w/o copper)

    Palmitoyl Tripeptide 1 (w/o copper) is a synthetic fatty acid-linked peptide that can help repair visible skin damage and strengthen the skin’s underlying supportive elements. It’s categorized as a “messenger peptide” because of its ability to “tell” skin how to look better, specifically regarding reducing signs of sun damage like wrinkles and rough texture. In addition, some research has shown that this peptide has similar benefits to retinol. (You can use both ingredients for even more significant benefits.) This peptide is in Skin Cell Restorative Serum and the Advanced Eye & Lash Formula.

    PEPTIDE

    Dipeptide-2

    Dipeptide-2 - consists of standard amino acids valine and tryptophan. Due to the small molecule size, it can penetrate the skin rapidly and effectively, allowing the peptide complex to kick start the cell renewal process and help replenish the skin’s appearance.

    This dipeptide improves lymphatic circulation and drainage and can improve dark and puffy under-eye circles, which is why it is an ingredient in the Advanced Eye & Lash Formula.

  • 4

    PEPTIDE

    Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide 7

    Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide 7 is a synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids plus palmitic acid. This peptide helps replenish the skin’s surface and reduce redness and inflammation.

    Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 suppresses the production of excess interleukins, the chemical messengers that trigger the body’s acute inflammatory response. Inflammation negatively affects the skin’s support system (comprised of collagen, elastin, and other proteins) and leads to wrinkles, sagging, and uneven skin tone. Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is one of four peptides in the Advanced Eye & Lash Formula.
