SYN®-AKE

« Back to Glossary Index

SYN-AKE is a peptide that mimics the peptide found in temple pit viper venom. It’s been shown to help relax muscle contractions, specifically those of repetitive facial expressions that over time can lead to furrows and wrinkles. By relaxing these muscular contractions, the formation of wrinkles is inhibited and existing wrinkles will subside in appearance over time. “SYN®-AKE is based on a patented mechanism. It mimics the essential amino acid sequence of the Waglerin-1 functionality. SYN®-AKE’s safety and activity has been thoroughly tested. Its effect focuses on an immediate and lasting relaxation of mimic wrinkles. In vitro the peptide is considered as an antagonist at the muscular nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (mnAChR)”
