Everything You Need to Know About The Peptide Serum

Let’s cut through the skincare noise for a second. If you’ve spent any time online lately, you’ve definitely seen the buzz around copper peptides. It’s easy to write it off as trendy, but in a prescription formula, the science actually lives up to the hype. You just need a formula strong enough to do the heavy lifting.

The Peptide Serum is a prescription 3% copper peptide longevity serum that rebuilds skin structure & repairs the skin barrier for firmer, smoother, stronger skin.

It's formulated by doctors and scientists to boost collagen, plump fine lines, improve elasticity & smooth rough texture, while strengthening the skin barrier.

What Makes It Different?

The Peptide Serum is the first of its kind to have both copper peptides and metformin in one prescription formula. It goes beyond simply treating the signs of aging to:

• Rebuild skin structure & repair the skin barrier without purging or peeling

• Deliver highly concentrated ingredients that are still sensitive-skin friendly

• Work with your skin's biology and natural repair processes

What Are the Ingredients?

The Peptide Serum is freshly compounded at our U.S. pharmacy for maximum potency.

• 3% Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu): Stimulates collagen, improves firmness, boosts skin repair & reduces inflammation.

• 1% Metformin: Keeps the skin's structure youthful and flexible, while promoting cell turnover.

• 1% Bisabolol: Calms inflammation and improves skin tolerance, for better absorption.

• 1% Panthenol: Adds hydration and softness while strengthening the skin barrier.

Prescription is not guaranteed. Your doctor will evaluate your medical history and health profile to determine if this treatment is right for you.

How to Use

1. Cleanse: Thoroughly wash your face with a gentle cleanser and gently pat dry. Allow skin to dry for 2-4 minutes.

2. Apply The Peptide Serum: Apply 1 pump to the face, neck, and chest, or enough to apply a thin, even layer to the treatment area. Gently massage until absorbed. Avoid the eyelids, lower lash line, inside the orbital rim, eyes, lips, nostrils, and mucous membranes.

3. Moisturize: Wash hands to remove any remaining medication. Follow with a gentle moisturizer and finish every morning with broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Important: Timing is Key!
For best results, do not apply The Peptide Serum at the same time as vitamin C, hydroquinone, retinoids such as tretinoin, or acids such as AHAs, BHAs, lactic acid, and glycolic acid. Your Musely doctor will help guide you on which treatments to use in the morning and how to incorporate The Peptide Serum into your nighttime routine.

Expectations: 

1. Results can take 8-12 weeks. 

2. Side effects include mild tingling, warmth, dryness, tightness, or temporary redness may occur, when first starting treatment or when using other active skincare products. Sensitive or reactive skin may need to start every other day for 1-2 weeks before increasing to daily use. 

3. Potential side effects include redness, dryness, tightness, itching, stinging, peeling or flaking, rash, breakouts, or skin irritation. Temporary blue-green discoloration of the skin or fabric transfer may occur if too much product is applied or if the serum has not fully absorbed. For information about side effects or how to use this medication, please use eNurse Check-Ups in the Musely app. Stop use and contact your physician if irritation is severe, persistent, worsening, or concerning.

Do's:

• Apply only the prescribed amount, 1 pump, to clean, dry, intact skin on the face, neck, and chest once daily, or as directed by your physician.

• Allow the serum to fully absorb before applying moisturizer or allowing contact with light-colored clothing, towels, or bedding.

• Use broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning as part of your skincare routine.

• Store in a cool, dark place and keep the container tightly closed. A blue or blue-green color is expected.

Don'ts:

• Do not apply more than prescribed or apply to additional areas unless directed by your physician.

• Do not apply to broken, irritated, infected, freshly shaved, recently treated, or compromised skin.

• Do not apply immediately after cosmetic procedures such as microneedling, laser, chemical peels, dermabrasion, or other resurfacing treatments unless directed by your physician. 

• Do not apply to the eyelids, lower lash line, inside the orbital rim, eyes, lips, nostrils, mouth, or other mucous membranes.

• Do not use if pregnant, nursing, or trying to conceive.

• Do not use and discard if the color turns yellow-green, olive, or brown, becomes colorless, or if the product develops sediment, separates, or smells off.
