Acetyl Glutamyl Heptapeptide-3 or Acetyl Octapeptide-1 (or -3) (SNAP-8) is scientifically and reasonablely designed of anti-wrinkle active ingredients of polypeptide. It has a similar role to Areginine Essence and has become one of the most popular raw materials around the world for upscale anti-wrinkle cosmetics.Anti-wrinkles caused by the contraction of muscles of facial expression, decreasing neuronal excitability by SNARE complex destabilisation.
Snap-8, this ingredient contains eight amino acids and (hence the "Octa") has the same (some say much better) anti wrinkle qualities of Acetyl Hexapeptide-8. Snap-8 produced roughly 35% reduction in wrinkle depth.
1. Reduce existing facial wrinkles.
2. It is effective against the development of new wrinkles.
3. Decrease the depth of facial wrinkles caused by the contraction of muscles from facial expressions, especially near the eyes and on the forehead.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 has been shown in research studies to be non-pharmaceutical topical alternative to (Botulism ). Research studies have shown that SNAP-8 is a safer, cheaper, and milder alternative to (Botulisum Toxin).
