Science & Benefits

sh-Oligopeptide-1 is a recombinant human-identical growth factor that plays a critical role in the regulation of cell growth and proliferation. In the context of acne, it is a 'super-healer' that accelerates the rate at which the epidermis replaces damaged tissue. As a humectant, it increases the skin's natural capacity to hold water by stimulating the production of hyaluronic acid. It is entirely non-comedogenic and zero-irritant. It is a 'bulletproof' choice for post-procedural care or for healing the localized trauma caused by inflammatory acne lesions, effectively minimizing the window for potential scarring.
