Effectiveness and Safety of a Tripeptide/Hexapeptide-Based Topical Skincare Routine

Overview

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a facial serum containing TriHex Technology® compared to a basic moisturizer for skin recovery following fractional CO2 laser and radiofrequency microneedling in Asian participants.

Background

Periprocedural skincare is essential for minimizing downtime and enhancing recovery after energy-based device treatments, particularly in Asian populations where the risk of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation is heightened. The use of TriHex Technology® has been proposed to support extracellular matrix remodeling.

Data Highlights

No numerical data was provided in the source material.

Key Findings

  • The serum-treated side showed significantly greater recovery on several parameters after multiplicity correction.
  • High subject satisfaction was reported with the serum treatment.
  • Benefits were observed across multiple time points.
  • Other findings showed a consistent direction of effect but did not retain significance after correction.
  • Further controlled studies are warranted.

Clinical Implications

The findings indicate that a topical serum containing TriHex Technology® may have a role in skin recovery following aesthetic procedures in Asian populations.

Conclusion

The study indicates the need for further investigation into the efficacy of the TriHex Technology® serum for skin recovery after aesthetic treatments.
