Copper Peptides

GHK-Cu

Copper tripeptide. Collagen, skin, and hair regeneration.
CU50

GHK-Cu is one of the most studied regenerative peptides available. A naturally occurring copper tripeptide found in blood plasma, it declines significantly with age. Injectable GHK-Cu supports collagen synthesis, wound healing, skin tightening, hair follicle activation, and anti-inflammatory signaling throughout the body.

GHK-Cu has decades of published research covering skin, hair, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory effects. It is the backbone of the GLOW stack. One benefit often overlooked is its effect on BDNF, which supports cognitive function and mood. The characteristic faint blue tint of a reconstituted copper peptide solution is normal. Injectable GHK-Cu is significantly more bioavailable than topical serums, though topical use on the scalp for hair growth is also effective.
