Science & Benefits
sh-Polypeptide-1 is a signaling protein that stimulates the growth of fibroblasts—the cells responsible for producing collagen and the extracellular matrix. By improving skin density and structural integrity, it enhances the skin's baseline moisture retention capacity. It is zero-comedogenic and helps to 'firm' the skin from within. For acne-prone individuals, it facilitates the remodeling of skin tissue, making it a strategic ingredient for preventing the structural collapse of the pore walls that leads to sagging and further congestion.
