BGT™ 9-P1

BGT™ 9-P1 is a biomimetic peptide specifically designed to inhibit melanin synthesis by interfering with the action of tyrosinase in melanocytes. Nonapeptide-1 effectively antagonizes α-MSH (Alpha Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone), which binds to the MC1-Receptor to activate melanocytes for melanin production. By blocking the α-MSH from binding to receptors on melanocytes, BGT™ 9-P1 prevents further activation of the tyrosinase receptor, reducing hyperpigmentation and lightening areas damaged by sun exposure and certain diseases. Clinically, it shows a significant whitening effect on Asians, has no cytotoxicity, and does not affect melanocyte function, making it an ideal skin whitening agent effective in controlling poor skin tone and age spots.

BGT™Co-Tri-P1 is a growth factor for various kinds of differentiated cells, and it has multiple biological actions such as stimulates blood vessel and nerve outgrowth, increases collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, as well as supports the function of dermal fibroblasts. It has also been found to have powerful cell protective actions, cell regenerating and anti-inflammatory actions. BGT™Co-Tri-P1 also has a major function of stimulating and prolonging the hair growth phase – anagen. It promoted hair growth and increased hair follicle and hair size by improving the vascularity around the hair follicle, and androgen-inducible TGF-β1 derived from dermal papilla cells (DPCs) of androgenetic alopecia involved in the suppression of epithelial cell growth. BGT™Co-Tri-P1 not only play a significant role in regenerating new hair growth, but they can also make your existing hair look and feel thicker by increasing the follicle size.
