Are Peptides Worth It for Skin and Hair?

Peptides are deemed worthy in the dermatology sphere because they cause collagen, enhance skin barrier effectiveness, and decrease wrinkles in 8-12 weeks. With regards to exercise, they can be viewed as experimental with little human data, yet they could be involved in recovery and body composition.

According to Dr Harikiran Chekuri, one of India’s pioneering plastic surgeons in Peptide Treatment,
“Peptides are worth every rupee when taken in therapeutic concentrations the problem is that most people base their opinions on the peptide based on the products that contain a very low dosage of the peptide, and even then this dosage is too small“

Peptide Treatment earns its value through measurable, research-backed biological outcomes across skin, hair, and cellular aging pathways.

• Collagen Mending: Matrixyl and other signal peptides such as Matrixyl encourage collagen type I and III, which restore skin elasticity and deep wrinkles even after 12 weeks that diminish by 35%.
• Hair Density Improvement: Biomimetic peptides such as GHK-Cu stimulate the growth phase of the follicles in dormancy and lengthening the anagen growth phase by 30 to 40 percent in 6 months.
• Cellular Repair: Epithalon and BPC-157 are longevity peptides that preserve the telomere length and induce cellular repair pathways that directly reduce biological aging on the DNA level.
• Skin Barrier Strengthening: Peptides are used to transport copper and zinc into the dermis layer, speeding up the process of repairing the barrier and decreasing transepidermal water loss by up to 28%.

Peptide therapies are used in Redefine Hair Transplant and Plastic Surgery Center with the help of the strictest medical protocols to make sure that they are safe, personalized, and that the long-term outcomes are optimal.

Knowledge of timing of Peptide Treatment translations to value will aid patients to avoid unhelpful products and invest in clinically significant protocols in preference.

• Concentration Matters: OTC products with concentrations of 0.5-1% in the form of Peptide do not produce significant results, whereas clinical Peptide Treatment products at concentrations of over 5% have a biological effect that is measurable.
• Delivery Method: The topical application can only penetrate to the epidermis, whereas clinical injection and microneedling delivery can penetrate to the dermal and follicular layers where the actual change occurs.
• Treatment Consistency: The haphazard or unfinished Peptide Treatment cycles give insignificant outcomes, and protocol’d 3 to 6 months regimes provide compounding biological enhancement.
• Patient Selection: best results are obtained with peptides in patients between the ages of 25 and 60 years old with early to moderate skin aging or those with thinning hair but not with severely advanced cases.
