Frequently asked questions

Is acetyl tetrapeptide-9 safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification found for acetyl tetrapeptide-9 (no H360/H361), no SCCS or CIR safety assessment identified, and no peer-reviewed reproductive or developmental toxicity data located in available sources; therefore default score is 0. Sources consulted: ECHA Annex VI (no entry), SCCS/CIR (no opinion), PubMed (no reproductive studies), PubChem/CosIng entries show cosmetic use but no repro hazard.
Is acetyl tetrapeptide-9 safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-related hazard, no mechanistic data indicating transfer into milk or endocrine activity, and no regulatory flags; default 0. Sources: PubMed (no studies), ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised classification), CosIng/PubChem (ingredient identity/use only).
Is acetyl tetrapeptide-9 safe for baby skin?
No hazard or mechanistic reproductive data specific to infants. Topical peptides generally have low dermal systemic availability; nevertheless, infant skin has higher permeability so exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adults. No infant-specific toxicity data found. Sources: CosIng, PubChem, PubMed (no infant studies), EWG (no high-hazard listing).
