Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 is a powerful booster of collagen, crucial for keeping the skin firm and elastic. It works by restructuring the skin and is especially effective in increasing collagen types I, III, and IV, as well as fibronectin and glycosaminoglycans. Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 contains a key component, proline, which, when converted to hydroxyproline, directly influences collagen synthesis. This ingredient is known for reducing wrinkles and fine lines, making it a popular choice for addressing signs of aging. By supporting collagen production, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 helps improve skin firmness, counteracting the natural loss of collagen that comes with aging.
