GHK-CuResearch peptide · Ships within Canada
Also known as: Copper Peptide, GHK-Copper, Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine-Cu
GHK-Cu is a natural peptide made of three amino acids (Glycyl-Histidyl-Lysine) that holds on to copper. It is found in human blood plasma, saliva and urine. Levels drop a lot with age — from ~200 ng/mL at age 20 to ~80 ng/mL by age 60. It is well known for its effects on skin renewal, hair growth and wound healing. Studies have shown it can turn on over 4,000 genes linked to repair and renewal.

What does GHK-Cu do?
GHK-Cu is a tiny peptide that carries copper, and your body makes it naturally. It is studied for smoother skin, hair growth and helping wounds heal.
What researchers study it for
- Smoother skin. It may help skin get smoother and bounce back better.
- Hair growth. Studies look at it for helping hair grow and slowing hair loss.
- Wounds and scars. It may help wounds heal and make scars smaller.
- Swelling and cell damage. It may calm swelling and protect cells from damage.
- Bones and brain. Researchers also look at it for bones, joint cushions and protecting the brain.
How it works, in everyday words
Your body makes less GHK-Cu as you get older. GHK-Cu carries copper into cells. Cells use that copper to run helpers that build collagen, the stuff that keeps skin firm. In studies, it also switched on thousands of genes linked to repair.
Good to know
- In studies it is injected under the skin once a day, moving between spots like the belly and thigh.
- It often causes brief stinging, redness or itching, so it is injected slowly.
- Studied for over 40 years, mostly for skin. The shot form is for research only, not approved to treat people.

Every batch is tested by an outside lab, and the report is on our Lab Results page. Sold for laboratory research only. Full details: Shipping Policy.
Time in the Body
About 0.5–1 hour (but its effects in the body last much longer)
Common Dose
1.5–2 mg a day (about 10–12 units on a U-100 syringe)
How It Is Given
Injection under the skin (switch spots — belly, thigh)
How Often
Once a day — many use it daily for steady skin and collagen results
The Science Behind It
GHK-Cu carries copper into cells. There, the copper helps enzymes (helper proteins) that build collagen, protect cells from damage (like SOD) and repair DNA. GHK-Cu turns on 4,000+ genes. These genes are linked to rebuilding tissue, healing wounds, protecting cells, calming swelling and stem cell work. It also lowers cytokines, the signals that drive swelling (inflammation). And it tells skin cells called fibroblasts to make collagen, elastin and other key parts of skin.
What Research Suggests
- ✦May help skin look younger, smoother and more elastic
- ✦May help hair grow and reduce hair loss
- ✦May help wounds heal and scars fade
- ✦May protect cells from damage and calm swelling
- ✦May boost collagen and elastin (skin-firming proteins)
- ✦May turn on genes linked to anti-aging
- ✦May protect nerves and help with thinking
- ✦May support bones and cartilage (joint cushioning)

Notes
Comes in 50 mg and 100 mg vials. 50 mg vial mixed with 3 mL bac water → ~16.67 mg/mL: 1 unit = 0.167 mg (10–12 units a day ≈ 1.67–2 mg). 100 mg vial with 3 mL bac water → ~33.3 mg/mL: 1 unit = 0.333 mg (5–6 units a day ≈ 1.67–2 mg). GHK-Cu often causes short-lived stinging, redness or itching where it is injected — inject slowly and switch spots. A cycle is 4–8 weeks (some go 6–12 weeks to see skin changes), then 2–4 weeks off.
Where Research Stands
Lots of research over 40+ years, especially on skin and wound healing.
How to Store It
