GHK-Cu
Firmer skin. Faster repair. Your body's own copper peptide.
GHK-Cu is a peptide your body already makes. Found naturally in human plasma, it is built from three amino acids — glycine, histidine, and lysine — bound to copper. When tissue gets injured, your body releases GHK-Cu to help kick-start repair.
Most people turn to it for their skin. GHK-Cu signals skin cells to build collagen and elastin, the proteins that give skin its structure and bounce. Clinical observations link it to better skin density and clarity, a reduced appearance of fine lines, and less hyperpigmentation — the dark spots that build up over time.
Its usefulness goes beyond the surface. GHK-Cu supports wound healing and tissue remodeling, carries anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity, and research points to a role in hair follicle growth. That mix is why people reach for it across skin, repair, and hair goals.
At IAM, GHK-Cu is available as an injectable vial in two strengths. A licensed provider reviews your health first and decides what fits you.
Why people choose it
- Improved skin elasticity and firmness
- Reduced appearance of fine lines
- Enhanced wound healing and repair
- Support for hair follicle growth
How it works
GHK-Cu is a signaling peptide — a small protein fragment that tells your cells what to do. It prompts your skin to make more collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep skin firm and springy. It also supports new blood vessel growth and tissue remodeling, which helps wounds heal and may reduce scarring. On top of that, it has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity that shields skin from free radical damage, and research suggests it supports hair follicle growth.
Who it's for
GHK-Cu fits adults looking for skin regeneration and anti-aging support, people dealing with slow wound healing or scarring, and those noticing hair thinning. It may also suit patients managing skin inflammation or oxidative stress — the everyday cell wear caused by free radicals.
Available forms
- Injectable vial (2 mg)
