Review

Results you may expect from using MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick:

  • Significant moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Highly moisturizing: MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick has a moisturizing rating of 7.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a moderate humectancy of 3.9 out of 10 and a maximum occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil (est. ≈30.0%) and Beeswax (est. ≈20.8%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.1 out of 10. It contains one ingredient with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy: Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%),
 or Vitamin C, a popular anti-wrinkle ingredient, yet with average efficacy confirmed by only one study.
 
Among others, MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Copper Tripeptide-1, Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, and Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do not contribute to the anti-wrinkle rating.
 
Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
 

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that MEDI-PEEL Peptide 9 Mela Stick is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Tocopheryl Acetate (est. ≈1.4%), Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%), Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.
