Mid risk

Functionpeptide

What it is — sr-(Oligopeptide-91/Clostridium Botulinum Polypeptide-1) is a biotechnology-engineered signal peptide.

What it does — It is marketed to mimic a botulinum-like, muscle-relaxing, expression-line-smoothing effect in cosmetics. This is a cosmetic positioning, not a medical or injectable treatment, and it should not be confused with botulinum toxin procedures.

Typical use — Appears in serums and creams aimed at the look of expression lines, at low use levels.

Who it suits / good to know — It is a novel bioengineered peptide with limited long-term safety data, so a cautious, patch-tested introduction is sensible, especially for sensitive skin.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it mid risk given its novelty and limited long-term data. This is general information, not medical advice; patch-test before use.

Why we grade it Mid: Mid risk — novel bioengineered peptide with limited long-term safety data; patch-test advised.
