GHK-Cu
The science behind its potential function.
Treatment in people are still being studied.
- About this peptide
- GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide found in the body. It plays a role in tissue maintenance and has gained attention for its potential effects on skin health, collagen production, and the body's natural repair processes.
- Potential function
Early research suggests GHK-Cu may influence collagen production, skin elasticity, and tissue repair. Researchers are also exploring its potential effects on hair follicle activity and inflammation, although these benefits have not been established for injectable use in humans.
- Tissue remodeling
- The body constantly breaks down and rebuilds tissue to maintain healthy skin and recover from damage. Laboratory research suggests GHK-Cu may influence this process by affecting collagen production and the formation of new tissue.
