GHK-Cu

Price range: R650,00 through R799,00

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide that dramatically declines with age. It’s one of the most powerful skin regeneration and anti-aging compounds available.

How Does It Work?

It works by stimulating collagen and elastin production, promoting wound healing, reducing inflammation, and acting as a powerful antioxidant. The copper component enhances its effectiveness by activating enzymes involved in tissue repair and remodeling.

Who Is This For?

Ideal for research into skin rejuvenation, reducing wrinkles and fine lines, improving skin elasticity and thickness, wound healing, hair growth stimulation, and reversing visible signs of aging.

This is a simplified explanation for educational purposes. For detailed scientific information, see the Product Specifications section below.

RECOMMENDED RECONSTITUTION GUIDE

This guide explains how research peptides are commonly reconstituted using bacteriostatic water (BAC water), and shows how dosing volumes correspond to syringe units. Always follow sterile preparation techniques when handling research peptides.

Always follow sterile preparation techniques when handling research peptides.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This guide is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. For research use only. Not for human consumption.

General Preparation

⚠️ Important: Allow product vial and BAC water to reach room temperature before reconstituting to reduce condensation uptake
  • Use bacteriostatic water (BAC water) only
  • Inject water slowly down the inside of the vial
  • Do not shake the vial
  • Gently swirl to dissolve the peptide powder
  • Store refrigerated after mixing
  • Use sterile technique when handling

Administration Guidelines

Best practices for GHK-Cu administration.

  • Route
  • Subcutaneous injection (abdomen, thighs, or upper arms)
  • Schedule
  • Once daily, 5 days per week with gradual titration
  • Injection Sites
  • Rotate injection sites to prevent tissue irritation
  • Dosing
  • Consistent 2.0 mg per injection for simplified scheduling
  • Use sterile technique when handling and administering
  • Cycle Length: 8–12 weeks typical; may extend to 16 weeks based on individual goals
  • Goal: Support tissue repair, skin health, and regenerative processes
  • Syringe: For ≤10-unit injections, consider 30- or 50-unit insulin syringes for improved readability

Cycle Length

ON-CYCLE
8–12 weeks
