Frequently asked questions
- Is palmitoyl tripeptide-5 safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no evidence of reproductive/toxic effects specific to infants. Exposure: although dermal absorption of this palmitoylated peptide is expected to be negligible in adults (large peptide size, limited permeability), infant skin has higher surface‑area‑to‑weight and immature barrier — therefore exposure score increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (measurable but still low). No infant‑specific toxicity data found.

No infant‑specific toxicity data found.
