Skin & Hair FAQs

Peptides boost collagen production needed for skin repair and hair growth. Unlock firmer, smoother skin and healthier, thicker hair with peptides.

 

  • What are peptides?

    Peptides are tiny chains of amino acids, and amino acids are the core components of proteins like collagen, elastin, and keratin. Because peptides are small fragments of proteins, the body can more easily absorb them.

    Peptides are vital to the body's many processes. For the skin, they help boost collagen production to keep skin tight, smooth, and younger-looking. For the hair, meanwhile, they strengthen the hair follicles to boost hair growth and improve scalp health.

    Aside from skin renewal and hair growth, peptides benefits also include:

    Muscle growth and repair

    • Increase muscle mass and strength
    • Cut down recovery time after workouts

    Immune function

    • Create and activate white blood cells, which help protect the body from illness and infections

    Cognitive function

    • Promote neuroplasticity
    • Improve memory and focus
    • Potentially help treat neurodegenerative conditions

    Hormone production

    • Regulate various hormones, including those responsible for insulin production

    Sleep quality

    • Regulate sleep patterns
    • Promote deeper, more restful sleep

    Energy production and fat loss

    • Kickstart the body's metabolism
    • Help break down fats

    Joint and cartilage health

    • Repair tissue
    • Help ease pain linked to joint problems or conditions like arthritis

  • Are peptides good for hair?

    Yes, peptides can be good for the hair. Peptides for hair growth strengthen hair strands, improve scalp health, and boost blood circulation to the hair follicles, which can increase hair density and thickness.

  • Are peptides better than minoxidil?

    Peptides are natural molecules that support hair growth and scalp health, while minoxidil is a synthetic drug originally developed for high blood pressure but now widely used as a topical treatment for hair loss. While effective, minoxidil can cause side effects like scalp itching and dryness.

    Which of these hair growth solutions is better depends on your goals:

    • Minoxidil is FDA-approved for hair regrowth, particularly for individuals with hereditary hair loss, but may have side effects.
    • Peptides offer a natural way to improve scalp health and address hair thinning without the side effects of synthetic treatments.

  • What is a peptide serum?

    A peptide serum is a skincare product designed to deliver peptides directly to the skin. Hair growth peptides also come in serum form.

  • What does a peptide serum do?

    Peptide serums penetrate the skin's surface and signal cells to produce more collagen and elastin. This helps reduce wrinkles and fine lines, smooths skin texture, repairs the skin barrier, and boosts the skin's natural healing processes to slow down skin aging.

  • Do peptides cause hair loss?

    No, they don't. In fact, they're used in hair growth products to help prevent hair thinning and encourage the growth of healthier, stronger hair. Zinc thymulin, for example, is a naturally occurring peptide hormone that can boost hair growth.

  • What are the side effects of peptide hair serum?

    Peptides are usually well-tolerated, but some users may experience mild scalp irritation or redness. Although these side effects are temporary, do a patch test before applying hair growth peptides to prevent adverse reactions.

  • What is the disadvantage of peptides?

    Peptides work gradually, so the effects may take time to show. Also, they may be less effective for severe skin conditions or hair loss.

  • What happens if you stop using peptides?

    Once you stop, benefits like skin tightening or hair regrowth may gradually fade, eventually returning to the state your skin or hair was before you started using peptide skin care products or peptides for hair growth.

  • At what age should I use peptide serum?

    Peptides in skincare and hair growth products benefit adults at any age, but they're often recommended in your late 20s or early 30s. Starting early can help maintain skin elasticity and promote healthy hair growth before aging skin or hair thinning becomes noticeable.

  • What do peptides do for my skin?

    Peptides in skincare, such as peptide face cream, boost collagen and elastin production. They help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, making your skin look firmer and younger-looking. Peptides also help remove dead skin cells, giving you a smoother, even-toned complexion.

    Collagen peptides for skin also have anti-aging properties. They can help lift sagging skin, making them a popular choice in anti-aging skincare products.

  • Which peptide is best for skin?

    Research suggests that Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, which boosts collagen production, and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, which reduces wrinkles, are among the best peptides for skin. Copper peptides can also help promote healing.

  • Are peptides better than retinol?

    Peptides and retinol serve different skincare purposes. Retinol is a powerful anti-aging ingredient that helps reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture. Peptides, meanwhile, are gentler and focus on collagen building and skin repair.

    Some people prefer the soothing properties of peptides for skin tightening (although their effects can be more gradual versus retinol), while others use both in their skincare routine.

  • Is it OK to mix peptides and retinol?

    Yes, it is usually safe to use peptides and retinol together in your skincare routine.

  • What is the best peptide moisturizer?

    The best peptide moisturizer is one that targets your specific skin concerns like wrinkles, fine lines, or sagging skin. Look for moisturizers with collagen-boosting and antimicrobial peptides to help improve skin elasticity and strengthen the skin barrier.

  • Are peptides better than hyaluronic acid?

    Hyaluronic acid is a hydrating agent, while peptides focus on collagen production and skin repair. They serve complementary roles in skincare—hyaluronic acid for immediate hydration and skin plumping, peptides to help reduce wrinkles and keep the skin firm.

  • What not to mix with peptides?

    Avoid mixing peptides with strong acids like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), as these can reduce the effectiveness of peptides. Also, some peptides may not work well with vitamin C in its active form (ascorbic acid), as the two can counteract each other's benefits.

  • Should I use peptides or vitamin C?

    Peptides and vitamin C offer different benefits for the skin. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that brightens the skin and reduces hyperpigmentation, while peptides boost collagen production and help promote skin repair. Many people use both in their skincare routine to take advantage of each's benefits, either on alternate days or different times of the day.
