Peptides may be the buzz word in anti-aging at the moment but with good reason. In the early ’90s, scientists and researchers discovered that peptides, small proteins with very specific amino acid sequences, are beneficial for the skin. “They stimulate collagen production and help restore a healthy, youthful structure to the skin,” says Manhattan Beach, CA, dermatologist Ashley Magovern, MD. Peptide-infused products can also help hydrate and heal the skin.

“It doesn’t matter which vehicle you choose, as long as the formulation allows the peptides to do their work,” says Dr. Magovern. “The peptides need to be formulated with a mix of ingredients that allow it to get to where it needs to go, resist breakdown and stimulate collagen production.”
