Peptides – The Anti-Aging Actives of the Future

What are Peptides?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids – the building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin. In skincare, they act as messengers that signal the skin to produce more collagen. The result: firmer, smoother, and younger-looking skin.

How do Peptides combat skin aging?

As we age, the skin breaks down collagen – wrinkles form, and the skin loses its firmness. Peptides address this directly: They stimulate collagen synthesis, improve skin elasticity, and reduce visible wrinkles. At the same time, they support the skin barrier and protect against external influences.

Different Types of Peptides

Signal peptides stimulate collagen production. Carrier peptides transport trace elements like copper into the skin. Neurotransmitter-inhibiting peptides act similarly to Botox and relax expression lines. The combination of different peptides delivers the best results.

Lumvera Products with Peptides

The Lumvera Advanced Peptide Anti-Aging Solution and the Lumvera Youth Boost – Natural Anti-Aging Care rely on highly concentrated peptide complexes for visible results. Both products are specifically formulated for mature skin that requires intensive care and regeneration.

Application Tip

Peptides are most effective with regular use. Apply the serum morning and evening after toner and let it absorb completely before continuing with your moisturizer.
