Copper peptide for cellular and skin rejuvenation.

About GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper) is a tripeptide naturally present in human plasma that binds copper. Its levels decline significantly with age. It has notable regenerative capabilities for skin, hair and multiple tissues. It works by modulating the expression of more than 4,000 genes, restoring many of them to a more youthful pattern.

How it works

1Mechanism: modulates the expression of thousands of genes related to tissue repair and remodeling.
2Typical protocol: 4–8 week cycles, subcutaneous or topical (skin, hair).
3Expected timeline: texture and radiance in 3–4 weeks; deeper remodeling by 8 weeks.
4Follow-up: photo documentation and clinical assessment at baseline, 4 and 8 weeks.

Suggested protocol: 4–8 week cycles, subcutaneous or topical depending on the goal.

Frequently asked questions about GHK-Cu

Answers specific to this peptide. For questions about the program in general, visit our general FAQ.

Yes. It is one of its most documented uses. It can be applied topically to the scalp or subcutaneously, often combined with dermatological treatment.

Topical works locally (skin, scalp). The injectable has a systemic effect on tissue repair. Your physician decides based on the goal.

Texture and radiance are usually noticeable at 3–4 weeks. Deeper collagen remodeling takes 8 weeks or more.

Yes, it is complementary. GHK-Cu works at the cellular level (collagen, elastin); the others work at the structural level. The dermatologist coordinates the plan.

Generally yes. Because it is a peptide naturally present in the body, tolerability is usually excellent. A copper allergy is ruled out before starting.
