Frequently asked questions
- Is hexapeptide-11 safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or pediatric toxicity. Peptides are generally large molecules with low dermal penetration (no data showing systemic uptake), so adult exposure score is 0; however, because infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight, exposure for baby skin is conservatively increased to 1 (low but measurable). No infant‑specific hazard or mechanism data found.
