Buy Melanostatine-5
Overview: Melanostatine-5, also known as Nonapeptide-1, is a biomimetic peptide that serves as an antagonist to α-MSH (alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone). It is specifically designed to inhibit melanin synthesis and prevent hyperpigmentation, making it an effective skin-lightening agent without cytotoxic effects on melanocytes.
Mechanism of Action: Melanostatine-5 works by blocking the activation of the MC1-R receptor on melanocytes, which prevents the activation of tyrosinase, a crucial enzyme in the melanin production pathway. This inhibition leads to a reduction in melanin synthesis, thereby decreasing pigmentation and promoting an even skin tone.
Benefits of Nonapeptide-1:
- Skin Lightening: Reduces sun spots, freckles, and other forms of hyperpigmentation, leading to a lighter and more uniform complexion.
- Safe and Effective: Does not interfere with the normal function of melanocytes, ensuring it is safe for regular use.
- Proven Results: Studies have shown significant improvement in skin lightening within 28 days of regular use
(www.personalcaremagazine.com). - Versatility: Suitable for various cosmetic formulations targeting skin brightening and evening skin tone
(Amvigor Organics -).
Usage:
- Concentration: Typically used in concentrations ranging from 4.0% to 8.0% in cosmetic formulations.
- Applications: Ideal for serums, creams, and other topical products aimed at reducing hyperpigmentation and promoting skin radiance.
Certifications:
- Preservative-free
- Vegan compatible
