LCPeptide™ EGF

CAS No. 62253-63-8, 7732-18-5, 7783-20-2 LCPeptide™ EGF, or Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), is a bioengineered protein used in high-end cosmetics to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and hyperpigmentation by signaling skin cells to repair and regenerate, which boosts generation of collagen and hyaluronan. LCPeptide™ EGF also promotes skin regeneration and wound healing through expediting cell turnover. EGF should not be used on cancerous or psoriasis-affected skin as it can promote cell proliferation.  Cosmetic Benefits Boosts collagen production: It stimulates fibroblasts, the cells that produce collagen, which is crucial for skin firmness and elasticity. Reduces signs of aging: EGF can help diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and improve skin texture and tone. Speeds up wound healing: It has been shown to accelerate the healing process for various types of wounds, including burns and surgical scars. Improves other skin conditions: EGF can help with conditions like acne by reducing inflammation and sebum production, and may improve hyperpigmentation.  Allowed for use in Cosmetics as skin conditioner (US, EU, Canada, Australia*, Japan).
