Functions

GHK is a tripeptide molecule with the sequence glycyl-histidyl-lysine. It is naturally present in human blood, saliva and urine. At the age of 20, the concentration of GHK in the blood was 200 ng/mL, and by the age of 60, the concentration dropped to 80 ng/mL due to a significant decrease in the regenerative capacity of human organs. Pickart first isolated GHK-Cu from human plasma in 1973, and found that copper peptides are very effective for wounds and skin injuries. In 1986, ProCyte was established in Washington, USA, dedicated to applying copper-bonded amino acids to the treatment of human tissue repair, anti-aging, wrinkle removal, and hair growth. In 1999, he founded the brand Neova, and officially used blue copper for anti-aging and wrinkle-removing beauty care. It has a global exclusive patent, so that this breakthrough GHK-Cu technology can not harm the skin or irritate the skin. In the case of the skin, it increases the vitality of the skin and gradually restores the collagen lost in the body, so that the subcutaneous tissue becomes firm and tough, accelerates wound healing, and gradually achieves the purpose of wrinkle removal and anti-aging.

GHK and its copper complex can be used as an activator of tissue remodeling. It is also a signal peptide, which can effectively promote the production of collagen and elastin, increase blood vessel growth and antioxidant capacity, and stimulate glucose aggregation. Amines (Glycosaminoglycans, GAGs) are produced to help the skin restore its ability to repair itself. GHK-Cu is also an important factor in the human body to help injured tissues fight inflammation, and plays an important function of stimulating the production of normal proteins to replace damaged proteins.
