SNAP-8 200mg (Topical)
SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a next-generation anti-wrinkle peptide complex designed to reduce expression lines by relaxing facial muscle contractions.
At West Lab Chemicals, we supply SNAP-8 200mg (Topical Grade) with ≥99% HPLC-verified purity, developed specifically for cosmetic and dermatological research.
SNAP-8 is a powerful evolution of Argireline (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8), with an extended peptide chain for greater efficacy in reducing muscle-induced wrinkles and fine lines.
What is SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3)?
SNAP-8 is a synthetic octapeptide derived from the N-terminal end of SNAP-25, a protein involved in the release of neurotransmitters at neuromuscular junctions.
By competing with SNAP-25, SNAP-8 reduces the release of acetylcholine, thereby softening muscle contractions and minimizing wrinkle formation.
It provides a non-invasive alternative to Botox®, offering visible smoothing results without injections.
SNAP-8 is widely used in anti-aging serums, eye creams, and facial firming products, where it delivers fast and reliable wrinkle reduction results.
