Abstract

The peptide has from 3 to 10 amino acids comprising at least the sequence K*(Ac)GH or K*(Ac)HG and may further comprise an N-terminus modification, preferably an acylation, and/or a C-terminus modification; K* is selected from the group consisting of lysine, ornithine, diaminobutyric acid, diaminopropionic acid and a hydroxylated derivative thereof; K*(Ac) corresponds to a lysine, ornithine, diaminobutyric acid, diaminopropionic acid or a hydroxylated derivative thereof, acetylated on the amine of their lateral hydrocarbon chain. The two preferred peptides are Pal-K(Ac)GH and Pal-K(Ac)HG. This peptide can be used for a cosmetic treatment, in particular anti-aging, anti-wrinkle and fine lines, to improve the mechanical properties of the skin, firmness/tonicity/elasticity/flexibility, to increase the density and volume of the skin, for a restructuring, healing effect, and/or to fight stretch marks.
