Even from the tender age of our mid-20s, our collagen starts to decrease, losing about 1% of its collagen per year. There are many creams, lotions, and potions that can help the quality of the skin. Unfortunately, few solutions work to reduce or reverse aging at the root.
GHK-Cu is a copper tripeptide that is a naturally occurring peptide within the body. Interestingly, after 20 the peptide begins to decline. By 60 the peptide is at half its potency in the body. According to an article published in the National Library of Medicine, the GHK-cu copper tripeptide is proven to not only tighten loose skin… it also has an age-reversing effect from within the cells due to its gene reset capabilities.
Research from Ubie Health shows that GHK-Cu can influence thousands of genes, shifting an aged cell profile back toward a healthier, younger state, which highlights its age-reversing abilities.
What other proven skin benefits does GHK-Cu have?
- Tighten loose skin and reverse thinning of aged skin
- Improve skin firmness, elasticity, and clarity
- Reduce fine lines and depth of wrinkles, and improve structure of aged skin
- Reduce photodamage, mottled hyperpigmentation, skin spots and lesions
- Improve overall skin appearance
- Protect skin cells from UV radiation
- Smooth rough skin
Additionally the tripeptide also benefits you with
- Stimulate wound healing—see scar tissue
- Reduce inflammation and free radical damage
- Increase hair growth and thickness and enlarge hair follicle size
- Stimulating effect on stem cell production
How do you increase GHK-cu?
The one you choose may be a personal preference. Intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous injections of the compound are synthetic laboratory-produced compounds that are put inside the body.
These come with a variety of potential risks, like the following:
Copper Toxicity: IV delivery floods the bloodstream with copper ions. This can overwhelm the liver and kidneys, potentially causing organ damage or systemic toxicity.
Vascular Flushes & Irritation: Rapid systemic absorption through injections can cause acute facial flushing, dizziness, and a pronounced metallic taste.
Gastrointestinal Distress: Severe nausea, cramping, and systemic fatigue are frequently linked to unmonitored systemic peptide exposure.
Severe Contraindications: GHK-Cu is strictly dangerous for anyone with Wilson’s disease (a copper-accumulation disorder) or active liver disease.
GHK-cu intravenous injections are not available in the USA.
A safer alternative
A unique product called X39 from Lifewave uses an advanced patch to stimulate the production of your body’s own GHK-cu. Using the intelligence of the body to regulate the amount that is safe. With almost no side effects, a very small amount of users reported a mild irritation under the patch as well as occasional mild headaches, fatigue, or muscle cramps, mostly due to detox.
