About
Pentapeptide-62 — another synthetic signalling pentapeptide. Plausible, gentle in short-term use, but evidence is supplier-heavy.
Pentapeptide-62 is a synthetic five-amino-acid peptide marketed for anti-ageing and skin-conditioning claims tied to specific signalling pathways. Listed in EU CosIng; no dedicated SCCS opinion. Use levels are in the parts-per-million range. Public toxicological literature is limited, with supplier-supplied in-vitro and small in-vivo dossiers as the main evidence. Patch-test and clinical tolerance appear routine but are not a substitute for population-scale data. Evidence level low.
