Topical Anti-ageing Peptide for Skin Regeneration

Description

AHK (Tripeptide-3) 200mg is a cosmetic peptide active used in advanced anti-ageing skincare formulations. AHK is a short tripeptide (Ala–His–Lys) known for its ability to stimulate collagen synthesis, support tissue regeneration and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When incorporated into topical products such as serums, creams or masks, it targets skin firmness, texture and overall rejuvenation at a cellular level. Offered at a 200 mg strength, this peptide is suitable for formulators, skincare professionals and experienced consumers seeking a high-performance ingredient to support smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Usage

For topical cosmetic use only; not for injection or internal use.
Intended to be incorporated into serums, creams, masks or other topical skincare products at appropriate cosmetic-use concentrations as determined by the formulator.
Apply the finished formulation to clean, dry skin, typically once or twice daily, focusing on areas with fine lines, wrinkles or loss of firmness.
Introduce gradually into a skincare routine and monitor skin response, especially on sensitive skin.
Perform a patch test of the final formulation on a small area of skin before first widespread use.
Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
Use daily broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day when using active anti-ageing routines to protect against photoageing.

Contraindications

Known hypersensitivity or allergy to peptides or any excipients in the final formulation.
Use on broken, irritated or infected skin unless advised by a qualified professional.
Concurrent use with highly irritating treatments (strong acids, retinoids, aggressive procedures) may increase irritation risk; introduce with caution.
Not intended for injection, ingestion or any route other than topical application of a cosmetic formulation.
Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals and those with significant dermatologic conditions should consult a healthcare professional before using highly active cosmetic formulations.

Adverse Effects

Possible mild, transient redness, tingling or irritation at the application site, especially when first introduced or at high active concentrations.
Potential for allergic or sensitivity reactions in susceptible individuals, including redness, itching or rash.
Irritation risk may increase if combined with other strong actives (e.g., high-strength acids or retinoids) without appropriate formulation and routine design.
Discontinue use and seek medical advice if severe or persistent irritation, swelling or other adverse reactions occur.

Storage Conditions

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Keep container tightly closed to protect from moisture, air and contamination.

Onset

Enhanced hydration and smoother feel may be noticed within days in a well-formulated product, while more visible improvements in fine lines, wrinkles and firmness generally appear progressively over several weeks of regular application.
