Myristoyl Hexapeptide-4 is a synthetic peptide composed of six amino acids linked to a myristoyl (fatty acid) group. The myristoyl group enhances skin penetration, allowing the peptide to reach deeper layers of the skin more effectively.
This peptide is primarily used in anti-aging and skin-firming products because it helps stimulate collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its action on the extracellular matrix also supports skin structure and firmness, making it suitable for facial, neck, and eye area treatments.
