Acetyl Octapeptide-3 Powder is a high-performance functional cosmetic peptide, a laboratory-synthesised octapeptide active ingredient widely regarded as an upgraded version of traditional hexapeptides. Its optimised molecular structure delivers superior skin penetration and biological activity, enabling stable efficacy within skincare formulations. As an effective anti-ageing ingredient, it primarily targets expression lines and fine wrinkles. By modulating neural signalling pathways, it helps reduce muscle contractions, resulting in smoother skin surfaces. With sustained use, it enhances overall elasticity and skin refinement.
As a specialist supplier focused on premium peptide ingredients, Le-Nutra Ingredients leverages its mature R&D system and extensive production expertise to continually unlock the core value of Acetyl Octapeptide-3 within anti-wrinkle and skin-firming formulations. Equipped with modern production facilities and a dedicated technical team, the company rigorously implements standardised manufacturing processes and quality management systems. This ensures every batch meets stringent requirements for purity, stability, and active performance. Our ingredients hold multiple international certifications, guaranteeing reliable quality and traceable sourcing. We are committed to creating long-term, sustainable product value and market competitiveness for our partners.

Acetyl octapeptide primarily targets ‘dynamic wrinkles’ formed by repeated facial muscle contractions, such as crow's feet, forehead lines, frown lines and nasolabial folds. By reducing muscle contraction frequency, it restores smoothness to the skin's surface.
Long-term use of products containing Acetyl Octapeptide-3 prevents dynamic lines from deepening into ‘static lines’ that remain visible even when the face is at rest, offering preventive anti-ageing benefits.
Research indicates that while inhibiting muscle contractions, this peptide indirectly improves the barrier function of the skin's stratum corneum, reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This results in skin that feels more supple and moisturised.
When combined with Hyaluronic Acid or Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, it achieves a dual effect of ‘instant plumping + long-lasting repair’.

A: Acetyl Octapeptide-3 is an enhanced version of Hexapeptide-8. It incorporates two additional amino acids in its sequence, granting it greater ‘spatial advantage’ when inhibiting SNARE complex formation. Clinical studies demonstrate superior efficacy in reducing wrinkle depth compared to Hexapeptide-8.
A: This ingredient has undergone rigorous toxicological testing, demonstrating no allergenicity or cytotoxicity. It acts solely at the neuromuscular junction within the skin, eliminating the risk of stiffness associated with botulinum toxin injections.
A: It is ideal for early-stage anti-ageing skincare, helping to delay the formation of dynamic wrinkles and serving as an excellent preventative ingredient.
A: Absolutely suitable. It can be incorporated into various customised products such as anti-wrinkle serums, firming lotions, and masks.
A: Combining it with other peptides achieves multi-functional anti-ageing effects, such as simultaneously improving fine lines, enhancing elasticity, and increasing smoothness.
A: Inner packaging utilizes food-grade plastic bags, protected externally by kraft paper bags, with standard quantities of 15kg/25kg per bag. Custom orders ranging flexibly from 1g to 10kg are also accommodated.
Inner by food grade plastic bag; Outside with kraft paper bag; Available in 15kg/25kg/bag, also accept customized quantity.
