Vialox

Vialox is generally described as pentapeptide-3, a temple-viper inspired topical anti-wrinkle cosmetic active. It is a competitive antagonist at postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors at the cosmetic-level dose.

Reviews describe Vialox as a temple-viper inspired neuromodulatory peptide acting as a competitive antagonist at postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors, preventing sodium-channel opening and reducing muscle contraction linked to dynamic expression lines. In vitro work shows reduced muscle-cell contraction; cosmetic literature reports roughly 49% wrinkle-size reduction and 47% skin roughness reduction after 28 days — the same review notes larger clinical trials are still needed.
