This one is topical, so no vials, no syringes, no bacteriostatic water. You're shopping for a serum, not a lyophilized powder. The number that matters is complex concentration. Sederma's clinical data used 3% Matrixyl 3000 complex. Products that list "Matrixyl 3000" without disclosing the percentage probably contain too little to match clinical results. Look for palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 both appearing in the top 10 INCI ingredients; if they're near the bottom, the concentration is cosmetic-grade marketing rather than clinical-grade dosing. The Ordinary's Matrixyl 10% + HA lists 10% combined Matrixyl 3000 and Matrixyl Synthe'6 at about $15 for 30ml. That's transparent labeling. Paula's Choice Peptide Booster runs $58 for 20ml. Raw Sederma complex costs $80 to $200 per gram for DIY formulators. Apply to clean, dry skin. Wait 2 to 3 minutes before layering other products. If you're using GHK-Cu in the same routine, apply that first (lower molecular weight, faster absorption). Retinoid and Matrixyl 3000 work fine together but if your skin is sensitive, split them: Matrixyl AM, retinoid PM.
