Presperse launched two innovative peptide technologies designed to target visible signs of aging and promote healthier-looking skin and hair. 

Firmer Skin and Fuller Hair

ZPC Repairs 012P (INCI: Tripeptide-1 Copper) is a biomimetic copper peptide that increases collagen I and III production. This helps skin to appear firmer and smoother, and hair to look fuller. 

At a recommended use level of 0.05-0.2%, the ingredient can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and supports natural skin firmness and elasticity, per the company.

Reducing Expression Lines

ZPC Wrinklend008S (INCI: Water (Aqua) (and) Glycerin (and) 1,2-Hexanediol (and) Ethylhexylglycerin (and) Acetyl Hexapeptide-8) is reportedly referred to as "Botox in a bottle." According to the company, this neurotransmitter-inhibiting peptide is used to address wrinkles caused by facial movement, especially around the eyes and forehead. 

At a recommended use level of 3-5%, it can help reduce wrinkle depth and expression lines by relaxing facial tension, while also supporting collagen I expression and reducing inflammation (IL-8).
