Pentapeptide-3 is a synthetic peptide with the sequence Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-Ala-NH2 known under the trade name Vialox peptide. It acts as an acetylcholine (ACh) competitive antagonist, blocking the membranes receptors and leaving a curare-like effect.

Pentapeptide-3 smooths expression lines and deep wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles and lessening contractions. It has been extensively tested and is believed to be safe for topical cosmetic applications. It is an effective alternative to Botox® injections for crows feet, forehead, and nasolabial fold expression wrinkles.
