Nonapeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide designed to inhibit melanin synthesis by competing with α-MSH (alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone) for its receptor. This leads to reduced melanin production and skin lightening effects. It is primarily used in cosmetic formulations targeting hyperpigmentation, age spots, and uneven skin tone.

• Skin brightening and whitening creams

• Anti-pigmentation serums

• Spot-correcting treatments

• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation solutions

Nonapeptide-1 works by blocking the binding of α-MSH to its receptor (MC1R) on melanocytes. This prevents the stimulation of melanin production, resulting in a lighter and more even skin tone over time.
