I just googled hexapeptide 3 & wow! talk about information. Tons. Literally. It's an awful lot of (easy)reading about the whole spectrum of wrinkle control. This is the only way that I know how to copy the site

These are two of the best articles I've found on acetyl-hexapeptide-3. Note the very first paragraph of this article about what you need to look for in an AH-3 product:
"When choosing a personal skincare tool that is designed to perform a specific function (such as firming skin in the eye area), Dr. Patricia Farris of Tulane University School of Medicine advises: “The active ingredient must be stabilized, delivered to the skin at a therapeutic concentration, and remain in the skin long enough to exert its biochemical effects. Only when these conditions are met can real benefits be seen” (American Academy of Dermatology 2002)."
Article from Journal of Longevity:
Thanks to substantial progress researchers have made in understanding the cellular changes that bring about skin wrinkling and sagging, a remarkable new serum has been developed that is like an ER in a tube. One of the stars of the skin-tightening show is Argireline®, a patented blend of amino acids (the building blocks of protein). With clinically demonstrated antiwrinkle activity, Argireline® provides temporary relief from signs of aging in the eye area—in just minutes!
In a study with 10 female volunteers (average age of 44), Argireline® was applied once in the morning and once at night in the area surrounding only one eye for 30 days. By closely examining each woman’s progress with 3-D imaging technology, the researchers were able to map the wrinkles and evaluate how quickly Argireline® impacted wrinkle depth. They concluded that Argireline® produced a dramatic change in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With continued use, Argireline® promoted smooth, younger-looking skin.
Judy's notes:
The results of the clinical trials on Argireline at a 10% solution show:
17% reduction of fine lines and wrinkles in 15 days
27% reduction of fine lines and wrinkles in 30 days
39% improvement in smoothness
42% improvement in dryness
45% improvement in skin tone
People get so focused on the anti-wrinkle aspect of AH-3 (Argireline) they sometimes miss the other very important benefits for skin smoothness, dryness, and skin tone.
Another good article from Cosmetic Surgery magazine. Although this article does quote representatives from some companies marketing products, it also has some quotes from cosmetic surgeons

Hope that url came out readable, if not you can pm me for a link.
