Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum A New Anti-Wrinkle Peptide | The SNARE Complex Related Articles - Argireline | Resources
Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum, with 10% Argireline® as the active ingredient, is a topical alternative to Botox® (Botulinum Toxin A). This anti-wrinkle alternative has been scientifically proven effective in reducing wrinkles and preventing the formation of new lines in a safe and natural manner.
Argireline® (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8) Argireline® represents a breakthrough in cosmetic science because of its remarkable anti-wrinkle ability. Clinical studies show a dramatic reduction in the depth and appearance of wrinkles after 30 days when Argireline® is applied externally on a regular basis - especially in the forehead, mouth and eyes.
- 17% reduction of wrinkles around the eyes
- 27% reduction in depth of wrinkles
- 39% improvement in overall skin smoothness
- 42% improvement in dry skin
- 45% improvement in overall skin tone
The discovery of this hexapeptide (six naturally occurring amino acids in combination) is an exciting find, as Argireline® is the first peptide to offer effects similar to that of Botox®. Argireline® works by mimicking a component of the SNARE complex and by inhibiting the over-production and release of catecholamines. By blocking these neurotransmitters, Argireline® reduces the contraction of muscles and reduces wrinkles and prevents wrinkle formation.

Argireline®, like Botox®, locally disrupts nerve signals sent to muscles, relaxing the muscles and flattening the overlying skin. Argireline® is the only ingredient in cosmetics today offering the same results as Botox® without needles or the risk of damage to the skin or facial muscles.
In an independent study conducted by Advancell, S.A. (Spain), the effect of Argireline® on the skin's elasticity around the eyes was performed. Using silicon skin replicas and confocal microscopic analysis, the researchers measured changes in the depth of skin wrinkles.
The skin replicas below (see Figs. 1, 2) show the improvement in skin smoothness at 15 and 30 days post-Argireline® treatment, compared with the results obtained without the incorporation of Argireline® in the cream.

Advanced Moisture Complex Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum is formulated with a 5% concentration of Advanced Moisture Complex with polyquaternium-51, a moisture support system that combines intensive hydrators and advanced lipid complexes to restore essential moisture to dehydrated or mature skin. Moisturization is further enhanced by the addition of trehalose, a unique sugar derivative that prevents the escape of water from the skin’s surface. This balanced blend of performance ingredients, with its time-released skin plumping benefits, hydrates the skin without clogging pores and helps the serum to completely absorb in just one minute.
Daily Regimen:
STEP 1: Cleanse: Hydra Therapie Cleanser
STEP 2: Exfoliate: Enzyme Peel
STEP 3: Treat/Face: Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum
Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum provides skin with everything it needs for a plump, less lined, more relaxed look. Argireline® delivers skin plumping benefits. Advanced Moisture Complex delivers supercharged moisture. Antioxidants, botanicals and aloe vera work to soothe and protect skin from the ravages of time. With continued use, fine lines diminish and moisture levels surge.
- With your fingertips, apply the Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Serum all over a clean, dry face and/or in any problem areas (forehead and neck, crow’s feet, etc.)
- Avoid the delicate skin directly under your eyes.
- Use enough to coat desired area(s) with a substantial layer.
- For optimal results, allow to dry for 3 minutes.
Argireline® will build up in your skin, so prolonged usage will yield the best results.
