GHK-Cu(Copper Peptide)

GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide) is a naturally occurring tripeptide that stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, activates hair follicle stem cells, promotes wound healing, reduces inflammation, and has antioxidant properties. The copper ion is essential to its biological activity. It works through multiple pathways making it one of the most versatile anti-aging research peptides.

Concentration reference

Standard mix: 50mg vial + 1mL BAC water = 50mg/mL. Each 0.02mL (2 IU) = 1mg. A faint blue tint in solution is normal — it is the copper chelate, not contamination.

Concentration

Draw volume

On insulin syringe

U-100 insulin syringe: 1 mL = 100 IU. Calculation for research reference only.

Injection sites

For systemic/hair: SubQ into scalp (4–5 points distributed across the scalp), or abdomen. For skin: SubQ near target area or intradermal. For wound healing: perilesional SubQ.

Timing

Morning preferred for energy and activity-dependent pathways. Topical can be applied morning and evening. No fasting requirement.

Cycle length

4–8 weeks on, 2–4 weeks off. Hair protocols typically 12–16 weeks for visible assessment. Skin protocols show improvement by week 4–6.

Stacking

Pairs well with BPC-157 for comprehensive healing protocols. Some hair research combines with NAD+ for follicle energy support.

Warnings

  • The blue tint in solution is the copper chelate and confirms product quality — do not discard a blue-tinted solution
  • Intradermal (into the skin) vs. subcutaneous (under the skin) produces different results — confirm technique before use

Tips

  • For hair protocols, scalp SubQ injections distributed in a grid pattern produce more even coverage than single-site injection
  • Topical application requires a proper carrier (serum, hyaluronic base) — GHK-Cu in plain water does not penetrate effectively

Common stacks

Full body recovery

BPC/TB-500 for repair, GHK-Cu for collagen and skin.

Hair & skin

BPC-157 supports underlying tissue, GHK-Cu drives follicle activation.
