Composition
| Ingredient | Concentration | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Collagen Peptide | Bioactive peptide fragments that signal fibroblasts to increase endogenous collagen I and III production | |
| Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 | Signal peptide mimicking TGF-β — activates collagen synthesis pathway without retinoid-associated irritation | |
| Hyaluronic Acid | Multi-weight HA for surface hydration (high MW) and deep dermal plumping (low MW), supporting peptide penetration | |
| D-Panthenol | Provitamin B5 — strengthens skin barrier, reduces transepidermal water loss, and calms post-procedure sensitivity | |
| Niacinamide | Vitamin B3 — improves skin elasticity, reduces fine lines, evens tone, and supports ceramide production |
Indications
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles
- Loss of Firmness
- Post-Procedure Recovery
- Dehydrated Skin
- Preventive Anti-Aging
- Dull Complexion
Procedure
- 01
Patient Consultation
5 minAssess skin type, current skincare routine, and anti-aging goals. Review any active treatments (peels, laser, retinoids). Confirm no contraindications.
- CPT.sr is compatible with all peel protocols and can be started immediately post-peel (Day 3+). No sensitization risk.
- 02
Demonstrate Application
2–3 minOn cleansed skin, dispense 3–4 drops onto fingertips. Apply to face and neck using upward pressing motions (not rubbing). Focus on areas of concern: crow's feet, nasolabial folds, forehead lines, neck.
- Show the patient proper technique: press and pat, do not drag. Peptides absorb best on slightly damp skin.
- 03
Layering Protocol
2 minMorning: Cleanser → CPT.sr → Moisturizer → SPF 50+. Evening: Cleanser → CPT.sr → Night cream or retinol serum (if prescribed). CPT.sr goes on bare skin before heavier products.
- Can be layered with prodermic NVC.sr (Niacinamide), VC.sr (Vitamin C), or RET.sr (Retinol). Apply thinnest to thickest.
- 04
Set Expectations
3 minExplain the timeline: hydration improvement in 1–2 weeks, fine line softening in 4–6 weeks, visible firming in 8–12 weeks with consistent twice-daily use. Results are cumulative.
- Peptide therapy requires consistency — skipped applications delay results. One bottle (75 applications) lasts approximately 5 weeks with 2x daily use.
- 05
Post-Procedure Dispensing
2 minFor patients completing a peel protocol (560, 580, 585), dispense CPT.sr as part of the post-care kit. Begin on Day 3 post-peel for collagen support during the healing window.
- The 72-hour post-peel window is when collagen remodeling is most active. CPT.sr amplifies this natural response.
- 06
Schedule Follow-Up
2 minBook a skin assessment at 6 weeks to evaluate peptide response. Adjust protocol: continue CPT.sr, add retinol for enhanced results, or pair with in-clinic peel for synergistic anti-aging.
- Reorder reminder: at 2x daily use, patients need a new bottle every 5 weeks. Consider subscription or multi-pack.
Post-procedure
| Week 1–2 | Hydration Phase Immediate improvement in skin hydration and texture. Apply 2x daily (AM/PM) on cleansed skin. Layer under moisturizer and SPF. |
| Week 3–4 | Building Phase Skin begins to feel firmer. Continue consistent 2x daily application. Fine lines may start softening. |
| Week 5–8 | Remodeling Phase Visible improvement in fine lines and elasticity. Collagen synthesis is accelerating. Reorder before bottle finishes. |
| Week 8–12 | Results Phase Peak collagen production. Significant improvement in firmness and line reduction. Continue for maintenance. |
| Ongoing | Maintenance Continue 1–2x daily for sustained anti-aging benefits. Combine with monthly peel sessions for comprehensive protocol. |
Session plan
| Session | Contact time |
|---|---|
| Week 1–2 | Hydration benefits visible |
| Week 4–6 | Fine line improvement |
| Week 8–12 | Firming & collagen results |
| Month 3+ | Sustained anti-aging maintenance |
CPT.sr is designed for continuous daily use. Unlike peels, there is no cycling or rest period required. For optimal anti-aging results, pair with monthly in-clinic peel sessions (prodermic 560 or 585).
