MELA-Tide 100

MELA-Tide 100 is a patented peptide composed of Thymol Acetyl Dipeptide-2, formulated at a 100 ppm concentration. This next-generation brightening peptide is engineered to target melanin biosynthesis pathways by inhibiting key enzymes such as Tyrosinase and MITF. These enzymes are responsible for the production of melanin, the pigment primarily associated with skin discoloration and hyperpigmentation. MELA-Tide works at the cellular level to regulate melanin production, reducing the appearance of dark spots, freckles, and other types of pigmentation, leading to a more even and radiant complexion.
