Frequently asked questions
- Is acetyl hexapeptide-31 safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific safety or absorption data were located. As peptides are generally large and poorly skin‑penetrating, dermal exposure to baby skin (0–3 yr) from topical cosmetics is likely low; because adult dermal absorption is judged negligible, no increase to exposure score was applied. No evidence of developmental or pediatric adverse effects was found in the literature or regulatory databases. Sources: PubMed, PubChem, CosIng, ECHA Annex VI, CIR.
