Skincare Ingredients and Facts sh-Polypeptide 1

Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor, (FGF, also known as sh-polypeptide 1) is a bio signaling protein specific to the family of cytokines involved in the generation and repair of collagen. It signals the fibroblast to initiate, (and possibly to maintain and direct) collagen production & proliferation. It may also, in conjunction with other peptides and cytokines stimulate the synthesis of collagen and other substances of the extracellular-matrix.

In the world of skin care and skin rejuvenation FGF has been observed to help with:

  • Reduction fine lines, expression lines and wrinkles.
  • Better blood circulation & lymphatic drainage.
  • The quality and quantity of new collagen and elastin present in the skin.
