ECM-Targeting Scalp Peptide for Denser, Fuller-Looking Hair

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 is a biomimetic scalp peptide engineered to reinforce the extracellular matrix (ECM) anchoring that supports healthy hair follicle function. By stimulating laminin-5 synthesis at the dermal-epidermal junction, it strengthens follicular anchoring, supports dermal papilla vitality, and promotes a longer, more productive anagen (growth) phase.

Most effective in combination with Red Clover Extract — replicating the clinically substantiated Capixyl™ complex — Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 is the peptide science behind denser, more resilient hair.

Why Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3

• Reinforces follicle anchoring – stimulates laminin-5 and ECM proteins that hold follicles in place during the growth phase
• Supports hair density – promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation for a visibly fuller scalp
• Prolongs the anagen phase – extends the active growth window before follicles enter telogen
• Works synergistically with Trifolium Pratense (Red Clover) Flower Extract – replicates the Capixyl™ combination studied clinically
• Clean & globally compliant – synthetic, vegan, cruelty-free, non-irritating at use concentrations

Formulation Advantages

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 is fully water-soluble and compatible with standard scalp actives including caffeine, biotin, zinc, and botanical extracts. Stable at pH 5.0–7.0 with no impact on viscosity or aesthetics. Ideal for leave-on scalp serums, tonics, and targeted treatments where prolonged follicle contact is desired.
