Oligopeptides: The Biotechnological Secret to Precise Repair and Anti-Aging
As a star ingredient in the cosmetics industry, oligopeptides are small peptide chains composed of 2–10 amino acids. With their ‘highly penetrating + targeted repair’ properties, they have become the core raw material for anti-aging and repair products. Oligopeptides such as Oligopeptide-1 and Oligopeptide-5, produced through biotechnological synthesis, can precisely target skin cells to activate regenerative signals.
Core Benefits and Technological Advantages
1. Accelerated Cell Repair: Oligopeptide-1 (EGF) promotes epidermal cell proliferation (increased by 62%), accelerates wound healing, and reduces repair time by 35% when used post-aesthetic procedures;
2. Collagen Synthesis Engine: Oligopeptide-5 (VGF) activates fibroblast synthesis of Type I collagen (58% increase in production), improves skin elasticity by 42%, and reduces wrinkle depth by 31%;
3. Smart Penetration Design: Nanoscale molecular weight (<1000 Da) penetrates directly into the dermis layer, with transdermal absorption rates 8 times higher than ordinary proteins, and a 55% improvement in efficacy when combined with hyaluronic acid.
Diverse Application Scenarios
- High-End Anti-Aging Serum: Recommended addition rate of 0.5%-2%, combined with boswellia and vitamin C derivatives to create a comprehensive anti-aging solution;
- Repair-focused skincare products: Added to freeze-dried powder (1% concentration), reduces redness area by 63% in sensitive skin and restores barrier function by 89%;
- Eye care products: Used in eye cream (0.8% concentration), reduces dark circles (melanin reduced by 29%) and firms the skin around the eyes;
- Scalp regeneration series: Added to hair care essence (1.2% concentration), activates hair follicle stem cells, increases new hair density by 27%, and reduces hair loss by 51%.
