The Role of Peptides in Skin Renewal

Peptides may sound high-tech, but your skin already knows them — they’re short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins.

What peptides do:

·       Signal the skin to produce more collagen.

·       Support elasticity by strengthening the matrix.

·       Improve skin texture and hydration.

At Dr. Dermaluci Lab, we include biomimetic peptides like Hexapeptide-8, which mimic natural skin messengers. These ingredients are gentle but powerful — encouraging renewal without irritation.

Conclusion:
Peptides are like reminders to your skin: “stay young, keep repairing.”
