Properties
GHK-Cu copper peptides are naturally occurring tripeptides (glycine-histidine-lysine) in the human body that exhibit the ability to bind copper. It is with this element, essential for the proper functioning of the body, that the biological activity of copper peptides is associated.
By binding ions and modulating copper levels in tissues, GHK-Cu shows the ability to increase collagen synthesis, stimulate the regeneration and expansion of blood vessels and nerves, improve elastin synthesis and benefit skin-building fibroblasts. Moreover, anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects of copper peptides have also been observed.
Application
With its beneficial effects on human skin, copper peptides have multidirectional applications in cosmetics. It includes not only the properties of typical skin care, improving skin firmness, smoothing wrinkles and improving skin tone. GHK-Cu also work well as a means of accelerating the regeneration and healing of wounds, including ulcers, and accelerating hair growth and preventing hair loss.
Copper Tripeptide-1 is an ideal active ingredient for formulation:
- Anti-aging creams,
- Regenerative serums,
- Preparations for sensitive and problematic skin,
- Products to promote wound healing and skin care after dermatological procedures.
