Slimming Peptides: The New Scientific Approach to Targeted Weight Loss

Weight Loss Peptides are centred on the concept of ‘safety, efficiency, and targeted regulation.’ Using biotechnological synthesis, they mimic the natural peptide chain structure of the human body, precisely targeting fat metabolism pathways. This makes them a revolutionary ingredient in functional skincare products and health foods. Their core components are palmitoyl pentapeptide-5 and acetyl hexapeptide-38, which deliver a triple effect of ‘fat burning, body shaping, and skin tightening.’

Mechanism of Action and Technological Breakthroughs

1. Accelerated Fat Metabolism: Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-5 activates the AMPK signalling pathway, promoting fat breakdown (glycerol release increased by 47%) while inhibiting fat synthesis (fatty acid synthase activity reduced by 62%);

2. Optimised Edema Reduction: Acetyl Hexapeptide-38 improves lymphatic circulation, reduces interstitial fluid retention, and reduces leg circumference by an average of 2.3 cm over 4 weeks;

3. Skin Firming Synergy: Stimulates type III collagen synthesis (increased by 53%), prevents skin sagging after fat loss, and improves abdominal skin elasticity by 41%.

Application Guidelines

- Slimming cream/serum: Recommended addition rate of 1–3%, used with massage, resulting in an 18% reduction in waist and abdominal fat thickness;

- Oral beauty products: Formulated as a solid beverage (50mg daily), combined with exercise, body fat percentage reduced by 6.7% over 3 months;

- Shaping masks: Applied to the arms and thighs, firming effect rated 4.6/5;

- Postpartum recovery series: Combined with Centella asiatica extract, accelerates abdominal fat metabolism while repairing stretch marks (39% reduction in visibility).
