About

A synthetic peptide complex designed to target wrinkles and support skin matrix proteins — the kind of high-tech anti-ager found in advanced skincare lines.

Cyclotetrapeptide-24 Aminopiperidine Carboxylate HCl is a synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids cyclized into a ring structure, conjugated to an aminopiperidine carboxylate moiety and neutralized with HCl. Peptides of this type are designed to mimic matrikines — signaling peptides that regulate extracellular matrix remodeling. The cyclized structure provides metabolic stability, extending its activity at the skin surface. It is used in anti-aging formulations targeting fine lines, wrinkles, and skin firmness. The HCl salt is standard for peptide stability but can cause mild stinging in sensitive individuals at high concentrations.

Skin benefits

  • Targets fine lines and wrinkles
  • Supports skin matrix collagen
  • Improves skin firmness and elasticity

Known concerns

  • May cause mild stinging or irritation in sensitive skin at high concentrations
  • HCl salt may slightly lower formulation pH
