Skin Glow (GHK-Cu)

Skin Glow (GHK-Cu)

100mg

Skin Glow is a product containing the peptide GHK-Cu, which is popular in the cosmetic industry for its anti-aging properties. GHK-Cu is a bioactive peptide, a form of tripeptide complex containing glycine-histidine-lysine bound with copper (Cu), hence its other known name - copper peptide, due to the presence of copper in its composition. GHK-Cu has proven beneficial effects on skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production, which makes skin healthier and more elastic. This peptide also improves cellular regeneration and stimulates blood microcirculation in the skin, helping faster healing of various injuries. Skin Glow is considered the most effective method for improving skin health and beauty, thanks to the GHK-Cu peptide in its composition. It helps reduce visible signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, increases skin elasticity and hydration, and contributes to a younger, radiant, and healthy appearance.

Clinical Research

GHK-Cu is the popular short name for glycyl-histidyl-lysine-copper (Copper peptide GHK-Cu), a small tripeptide complex consisting of amino acids glycine, lysine, and histidine bound to copper ion. This complex is an active ingredient in cosmetic products developed for skin health. Its beneficial action and benefits make it a used product in some medical applications. In a clinical trial published in Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, results from GHK-Cu use show its positive influence on skin texture, reduction of aging signs, and improvement of overall skin appearance. Results from another study published in Journal of Inflammation Research speak of anti-inflammatory properties and beneficial effect in treating rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis from GHK-Cu use.
