Хм, а
тут пишут, что типа пептиды от морщин и не очень-то помогает, ну или по крайней мере, что нет достаточных исследований на эту тему.
What do copper peptides do?
In the 1970s, Dr. Loren Pickart discovered that a variety of copper peptides have the ability to aid in tissue regeneration. Copper peptides boosted the body's healing abilities. Dr. Pickart patented a number of specific copper peptides. They seemed to be particularly effective in healing wounds, skin lesions and even gastrointestinal ulcers.
In addition, copper peptides help wounds heal. Copper peptides break down a specific type of tissue that forms scars (known as extra-large collagen aggregates). When these aggregates are broken down, wounds heal with far less scar tissue. Copper peptides also offer a significant anti-inflammatory benefit. In short, they help wounds heal faster, better and with less scarring.
Are copper peptides an effective anti wrinkle ingredient?
Probably not. Because wrinkles aren't wounds, but simply folds in the epidermis, the main action of copper peptides is not effective on wrinkles. Copper peptides are sometimes used by doctors to help skin heal after cosmetic surgical procedures or severe chemical resurfacing. Copper peptides can be used to counteract some of the more serious irritations caused by such treatments as
Retin-A.
One small study has shown that copper peptides, by themselves, can stimulate collagen production in the skin.
But there is not currently sufficient research to prove that copper peptide is an effective anti wrinkle ingredient.
