It is supposed to be AMAZING at turning back the clock. zero downtime, skin tightens slowly over a 2 week period. I am excited, but couldn't find much on the web about it.

The most generic cream I know of that contains palmitoyl pentapeptide-3 is Olay Regenerist. It is a great moisturizer, containing both peptides and niacinamide. Hope that this helps you. Sincerely, Nicki Hi Sarah,

And NO, applying topical collagen will never penetrate the dermis because the MOLECULE is too big. Microdermabrasion in a series is the best way to treat acne scars, as long as they are not ice pick scars. Pores are not doors, they do not open or close.

Is tretinoin effective? Is there a generic Palmitoyl pentapeptide-3 cream? I am worried about loose skin as I loose weight. I also have stretchmarks that I would like to take care of. I am 22 years old and do not smoke or have increased sun exposure. Thank you for taking the time to put this together! Is tretinoin effective? Is there a generic Palmitoyl pentapeptide-3 cream?

What about using a dermaroller? I have been thinking on buying one? Are there any fillers you would suggest for acne scars?

Are there any fillers you would suggest for acne scars?

But there is one method that actually TRIPLES the amount of collagen production of ANY of these methods... Sculptra injections. In fact, the collagen production stimulated by Sculptra is so profound... it actually increases the VOLUME of the areas treated... much the way Fat Grafting itself would do.
