Benefits of GHK-Cu:
HEALING WOUNDS:
GHK-Cu has shown promise in wound healing by promoting the migration and proliferation of skin cells and stimulating the production of factors involved in tissue repair. It may enhance wound closure and reduce scarring.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES:
Some studies suggest that GHK-Cu may have anti-inflammatory effects by modulating inflammatory responses. This could potentially benefit conditions involving inflammation.
PROMOTING GROWTH OF BLOOD VESSELS:
GHK-Cu has been investigated for its potential to promote angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels. This can be important for tissue repair and wound healing.
BOOSTING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM:
GHK-Cu has been associated with potential immunemodulating properties, including stimulating the production of certain immune cells.
ANTIOXIDANT BENEFITS:
GHK-Cu has been suggested to have antioxidant properties, which may help protect cells from oxidative damage. Antioxidants can neutralize harmful free radicals in the body.
STIMUL ATING COLL AGEN PRODUCTION:
GHK-Cu has been shown to promote collagen synthesis, a crucial protein for skin health, elasticity, and wound healing. This may contribute to its use in anti-aging skincare products.
AGING AND SUPPLEMENTATION:
GHK-Cu levels in the body decline with age, and this decline has been associated with various signs of aging. Some suggest that supplementation with GHK-Cu could potentially counteract these effects and support healthy aging.
HAIR GROWTH:
By enlarging hair follicle size, GHK-Cu can increase hair growth and thickness.
Contraindications:
Pregnant or breastfeeding women: There is limited research on the use of GHK-Cu during pregnancy and breastfeeding. As a precaution, it's recommended to avoid using GHK-Cu during these times.
Sensitive skin: GHK-Cu can cause skin irritation, redness, and itching in some individuals. If you have sensitive skin, it's recommended to start with a small patch test and gradually increase the application area.
Open wounds or cuts: GHK-Cu should not be applied to open wounds or cuts, as it can interfere with the healing process.
Active acne or rosacea: GHK-Cu can exacerbate active acne or rosacea. If you have active acne or rosacea, it's recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before using GHK-Cu.
Allergies to copper: If you have a known allergy to copper, it's recommended to avoid using GHK-Cu.
Precautions:
Sun exposure: GHK-Cu can make the skin more sensitive to the sun. It's recommended to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 when using GHK-Cu.
Other skin products: GHK-Cu can interact with other skin products, such as retinoids or alpha-hydroxy acids. It's recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before using GHK-Cu with other skin products.
