Copper Peptide | Skin Regeneration & Anti-Aging Compound
DoseGear research brief
Naturally occurring copper tripeptide found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. GHK-Cu affects 31. 2% of human genes and declines significantly with age—from ~200 ng/ml at age 20 to ~80 ng/ml at age 60. Known for exceptional skin regeneration, wound healing, and anti-aging properties.
Penetrates skin layers, activates fibroblasts, stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, promotes angiogenesis, and modulates inflammatory responses. The copper ion is essential for enzyme cofactor activity in tissue repair processes.
