GHK-Cu Skin, Coat & Connective Tissue Support
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide involved in tissue remodeling, wound healing, and healthy skin and hair maintenance. Preclinical research suggests GHK-Cu may support collagen synthesis, reduce inflammation, and promote optimal skin health.

How It Works
GHK-Cu is a tripeptide (glycyl-histidyl-lysine) naturally found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. It binds to copper ions, which play a critical role in enzymes involved in antioxidant activity, collagen synthesis, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling.

The Science
Preclinical studies show GHK-Cu can stimulate collagen synthesis, enhance angiogenesis, and support tissue repair. Copper is an essential cofactor for lysyl oxidase, an enzyme critical for collagen and elastin cross-linking.
Research suggests it may:
Increase collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis
Promote wound closure and re-epithelialization
Reduce inflammatory cytokines
Improve skin thickness and elasticity
Support hair follicle health and pigment retention

Why Injectable?
Oral peptides are broken down by stomach acid and digestive enzymes, reducing their effectiveness.
Subcutaneous (injectable) delivery allows GHK-Cu to bypass the digestive system and enter the bloodstream, providing higher bioavailability and more predictable results.
Oral Delivery
- Low bioavailability
- Degraded in stomach
- Less predictable
Injectable Delivery
- Higher bioavailability
- Bypasses digestion
- More predictable
Dosing & Administration?
(General Guidelines)
Dosing should always be determined by a licensed physician or qualified healthcare provider based on your weight, age, condition, and response to therapy.
- Route: Subcutaneous (SQ)
- Frequency: Typically 1–2 times per day
- Reconstitution: Bacteriostatic Water
To be used only under the direction of a licensed physician or qualified healthcare provider.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How soon can I see results?
A: Some people may notice improvements in skin and hair within a few weeks. Wound healing support may be observed within days
Q: Can GHK-Cu be used with other therapies?
A: Yes, it is commonly used as part of a comprehensive wellness or recovery plan.
Q: Is GHK-Cu safe for long-term use?
A: Preclinical data suggests GHK-Cu is well-tolerated. Long-term safety in humans is still being studied.
Q: Is this FDA-approved?
A: No. GHK-Cu is not FDA-approved for any use in humans. It is an investigational compound.
