Nonapeptide-1

Product Description

Nonapeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide known for its skin-brightening and anti-pigmentation properties. It functions by competitively inhibiting the activity of α-MSH (alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone), which reduces the production of melanin. This makes it especially effective in treating hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. Nonapeptide-1 is often used in brightening serums, whitening creams, and anti-aging products. It offers a gentle alternative to harsher depigmenting agents and is suitable for long-term use, including on sensitive skin. The peptide helps promote a clearer, more radiant complexion without irritation.
