What is Tetrapeptide-30? Tetrapeptide-30 is a new peptide developed to balance skin tone. There are various mechanisms to brighten skin tone, including reducing or inhibiting tyrosinase activity, blocking melanin transfer into keratinocytes, and inhibition of melanocyte activation. It is theorized that Tetrapeptide-30 Solution works by reducing the amount of tyrosinase and inhibiting melanocyte activation.

Function:

These tetrapeptides inhibit ultraviolet light (UV)-induced expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) by skin epithelial cells and fibroblasts. Furthermore, the tetrapeptides repress the upregulation of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) by skin fibroblasts induced by either direct exposure to UV rays or treatment with media conditioned by UV-treated keratinocytes. The small size and bio-activity of the tetrapeptides render them suitable for use in therapies directed to inflammatory skin disorders and as active ingredients in skin care products.

3. Reduces lesions and melasma on ethnic skin.
4. Active on all kinds of skin types.
5. Provides significant anti-inflammatory effect.
