Novel cytoprotective mediator, stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157
Excessive copper levels in the liver have been demonstrated to result in a number of physiological consequences, including mitochondrial dysfunction, the downregulation of copper influx, the upregulation of metallothioneins (MTs), and ultimately, cell death
Potential skin benefits may include: Improved elasticity Enhanced hydration Better skin texture Reduction in visible signs of aging Improved barrier recovery Support for post-procedure healing Reduction in photodamage appearance GHK-Cu is increasingly used in: Serums Regenerative facials Microneedling protocols Exosome-based therapies Post-laser recovery Anti-aging formulations Because it works through tissue signaling rather than harsh exfoliation, many users find copper peptides gentler than more aggressive anti-aging compounds
