Are Peptides Worth the Hype? And Should We Be Injecting Them?

Welcome back to season 15!

Have you noticed that peptides are everywhere at the moment? In our serums, moisturisers, toners and even injectables? What’s the fuss? Can they really do enough to warrant the hype? Should we bother using them? More importantly, should we be injecting them?

Dr Memee Ahamd, Co-Founder and Medical Director of SkinCouture in London and a specialist in regenerative aesthetics is here to tell us what’s worth it, what’s not, how to fit peptides into your routine, and gives us the verdict on the injectable trend you’ve been seeing all over your feed.
