Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (Ac-EEMQRR-NH₂)

A synthetic hexapeptide inspired by the N-terminal fragment of SNAP-25, a protein involved in neuromuscular signaling. Commercially known as Argireline®, this peptide is applied topically as a non-invasive approach to softening the appearance of expression lines by modulating neurotransmitter release at the skin surface.
