If you’re unsure exactly what peptides are, or what the benefits of using them might be, but still prioritize your complexion, then I can assure you that you’re in the right place and reading the right blog 😉
What are Peptides?
Simply put, peptides are chains of amino acids linked together. Amino acids are building blocks of proteins such as the collagen and elastin in our:
- Hair
- Skin
- Nails
- Teeth
- Muscles
These amino acids are crucial for the structure and function of the cells that make up our body, maintaining integrity to keep us strong, healthy and beautiful.

There are several different types of peptides and multiple ways to incorporate them into your skincare routine. Sleekskin Aesthetics®, for instance, features four different products containing peptides that are suited for different skin types and desired results.
