Computed with the same four public criteria as every profile. The human-evidence grade on an indexed profile is set automatically and may change when it is hand-reviewed. It is not a safety score, not a purity rating, and not medical advice, and not a claim that this compound treats, cures, or prevents any condition.
What it is
Acetyl tetrapeptide-11, sold under the trade name Syniorage, is a short synthetic peptide used as an ingredient in topical skin care products. Manufacturer materials describe it as supporting skin firmness by influencing proteins involved in cell cohesion and the structure of the outer skin layers, but this mechanism comes mainly from supplier lab work.
What the evidence shows
There are no registered human clinical trials and no indexed published papers, so claimed skin benefits rest on manufacturer data rather than independent human research. It is regulated as a cosmetic ingredient and is not FDA-approved for any medical use.
