Frequently asked questions

Is heptapeptide-7 safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific safety data identified (PubMed, SCCS, CIR). Heptapeptides are relatively large and hydrophilic (low dermal permeation potential), and no regulatory flags or toxicology data indicate increased hazard for infants. Because available information indicates negligible absorption, exposure score remains 0 for 0–3 yr skin.
