SYN-AKE
Synthetic tripeptide mimicking a Temple Viper venom component — nAChR antagonist that relaxes facial muscles.
SYN-AKE is a synthetic mimic of a component of Temple Viper venom — minus any toxicity. The venom paralyses prey by blocking the receptor that tells muscles to contract; the cosmetic version borrows that exact mechanism, very gently, to relax facial muscles and soften expression lines. It's a topical alternative to Argireline with a slightly different target, sometimes used in rotation or combination.
