Peptan® Cosmetic
Collagen peptides for effective skincare and personal care
Collagen is one of the most abundant scleroprotein of the connective tissue occurring as fibres accounting for 70 to 80% of skin dry weight. It is the main structure element of the skin and, therefore, largely responsible for its characteristic properties.
Peptan® Cosmetic are pure natural type I collagen peptides, preservative-free and easy to formulate in all your cosmetic applications.
The Peptan® Cosmetic peptide is based on a sequence (GLY-PRO –X or GLY-HYPRO –X) which is naturally present in the dermis and contains 18 different amino acids, including glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline in particular ; these three molecules account for almost 50% of all the amino acids present.
From applications in medicine, it is known that collagen accelerates the healing of skin wounds and the spontaneous reepithelization of the skin.
Used in cosmetic preparations for its water binding potential and anti-aging benefits, collagen helps to promote skin hydration and delays skin aging.
