Findings
In aged mice, Argireline applied twice daily for 6 weeks improved skin structure and increased type I collagen (the stronger, more supportive kind) by a statistically significant amount. Type III collagen decreased, which suggests a shift toward better-quality collagen. The study shows Argireline can work on a cellular level, not just temporarily plump wrinkles.
