Argireline is made up of chains of amino acids. Such chains can affect how our cells work, e.g. relaxing our face muscles. It is derived from the peptide Acetyl hexapeptide-3, a substrate of Botulinum toxin, or more commonly known as Botox.
Botox is a common, anti-wrinkle treatment which is applied using a needle. You may achieve the same anti-aging results with products which contain Argireline. Argireline can help prevent the formation of wrinkles by inhibiting muscle movement in the face. Because of this, Argireline cream is sometimes known as “Botox in a jar.”
