About
A synthetic peptide composed of 13 amino acids used in anti-aging cosmetics to support collagen production and skin elasticity.
Tridecapeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide consisting of 13 amino acids. Peptides in cosmetics are generally well-tolerated with minimal sensitization risk, especially when synthesized with high purity. The EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009 does not specifically restrict peptide ingredients; however, cosmetic peptides must be safe at use concentrations. Peptides in skincare may signal collagen synthesis and support skin barrier function. Tridecapeptide-1 is structurally distinct from known allergens and is typically produced via chemical synthesis with high purity standards. The PubChem safety score is not available for this specific peptide, but synthetic peptides as a class are considered safe for cosmetic use.
