Third, and more speculatively, weight loss was perhaps considered an unserious reason to take a drug, more a question of willpower than pharmacology
While their mechanisms of action are similar, topical acetyl hexapeptide-8 does demonstrate a lower efficacy than injected Botox, but as researchers note this is to be expected.22 Similar results were found in a small 2013 study, with the total anti-wrinkle efficacy of the Argireline treatment group being 48.9% compared to 0% in the placebo group.23 However, a more recent 2023 study investigating the effects of serum containing Argireline and hyaluronic acid found the results to be not statistically significant.24 This means that more research is needed before claims that Argireline is a true alternative to Botox can be confirmed or denied
For peptides that do not dissolve cleanly in bacteriostatic water alone typically those with hydrophobic sequences or basic amino acid-rich compositions that require protonation for solubilisation the recommended approach is to first perform initial reconstitution in a small volume of 0.1% acetic acid water (also available from Peptides Lab UK) to produce a clear stock solution, before diluting further with bacteriostatic water or the relevant physiological buffer
It also helps combat oxidative stress and free radicals, promoting overall skin health
