About
A synthetic six-amino-acid peptide used at low percentages for skin conditioning. Low-risk by class; specific evidence limited.
Hexapeptide-62 is a defined-sequence synthetic six-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning agent. Like other numbered hexapeptides, it is typically supplied as a low-percentage active in serums and treatment products. Short defined peptides generally show low irritation, minimal sensitization, and rapid enzymatic breakdown on skin. No specific CIR or SCCS opinion exists for Hexapeptide-62. Independent efficacy data is essentially absent; claims rely on supplier in vitro work.
