Description
Lypholized powder reqiring reconstitution.
GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine coupled with copper) is a naturally occurring tri-peptide. Revered as the “beauty peptide,” it is widely used in anti-aging, skincare, and hair growth formulations for its ability to stimulate collagen, reduce inflammation, and accelerate tissue repair.
How GHK-Cu Works
-
- Gene Expression: GHK-Cu positively influences gene expression, actively helping thousands of genes revert to a healthier, more youthful state.
- Carrier Peptide: It binds to copper ions in the body and acts as a carrier, facilitating the transport of copper to damaged tissues to initiate wound healing.
- Collagen Production: It signals fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin, which firms the skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
Main Benefits
- Skin Health: Tightens loose skin, repairs protective barrier proteins, and reduces hyperpigmentation. It is commonly featured in plumping and firming serums, such as the Biossance Squalane + Copper Peptide Serum.
- Hair Growth: Studies show it can enlarge hair follicle size, increase hair thickness, and stimulate hair growth.
- Cellular Repair: Promotes longevity by lowering oxidative stress, increasing antioxidant production (like glutathione and superoxide dismutase), and reducing inflammation.
