Pentaxyl Review

The makers of Pentaxyl claim that their product is able to work on both the dermal and epidermal layers to reduce wrinkles and increase skin firmness and thickness.

Pentaxyl also says that it can reduce skin discolorations and boost hydration, improving skin texture and color. These are all of the essential things that we would hope to see in an effective wrinkle cream, but claims mean little unless they are backed up with proven results.

Pentaxyl could give us those kinds of results if it contained established, effective ingredients in high doses, and we need to take a closer look at the ingredients and consumer reviews before we can recommend this product.

What are the Ingredients in Pentaxyl?

Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 – This peptide is medically proven to reduce wrinkles on the forehead and eyes caused by muscles used when making expressions (i.e. smile lines) by disrupting nerve signals to the skin. This softens deep wrinkles, especially those found around the eyes and mouth.

Palmitoyl Oligopeptide – Palmitoyl Oligopeptide boosts both collagen production and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, providing skin firming and anti-wrinkle properties. These help your skin to naturally restore what it loses as you get older.

Matrixyl – Also known as palmitoyl pentapeptide-3, Matrixyl stimulates collagen production in the skin and gives you the same effects of BOTOX® injections used for its anti-wrinkle properties.

Extracts – Pentaxyl uses various plant extracts, including Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola), Coneflower, Bearberry and Licorice extracts. These all claim to be able to alleviate and moisturize the skin in various ways, but the fact is that extracts are not capable of permeating the epidermal layer of the skin, making it impossible for them to improve the appearance of fine lines or wrinkles.

Vitamins -Pentaxyl contains vitamins A, C, and E, all which help the skin in various ways, giving moisture and temporarily improving the texture and brightness of the skin, but they will not have any lasting anti-aging effects.

What Else Should I Know About Pentaxyl?

Pentaxyl contains some very exciting ingredients, including a complex of three different peptides. It has also received many positive consumer reviews, but we can’t recommend this product because we could not find an all-inclusive list of components. An ingredient list would show us exactly how much of each ingredient was in the product, rather than just telling us that it contains some of each.
