How copper peptides help our skin and hair to be healthy

Copper peptide is one of the most concerned cosmetic trends.

Peptides are naturally occurring amino acids that help produce collagen and elastin, two types of connective tissue that make skin smooth and tight. It is natural that collagen and elastin gradually lose with age, and some lifestyle (such as smoking and excessive tanning) can increase the loss rate.

Peptide, known as glycyl-l-histidine-l-lysine (GHK), is easy to bind to copper enzymes. The symbol of copper in the periodic table is Cu, so the combination is called GHK Cu. Once you lose collagen and elastin, some skin care products may help your skin to rejuvenate. This is where peptides can help.

Officially known as polypeptide, it specifically stimulates the production of collagen in the skin and solves the following problems:

1. Small lines

2. Large pores

3. Senile plaque

The growth of connective tissue induced by copper peptide can also benefit by reducing breakage and promoting overall growth. However, once lost, no cosmetic product can completely restore collagen and other connective tissue.

Benefits of copper peptide on hair care

Copper peptides can promote the overall health of hair in the following ways

1. Increased blood flow

Copper peptides are thought to help increase blood circulation to the skin. The 2018 study reviews reliable sources. Copper itself has been reported to help maintain tissue found in blood vessels. Therefore, copper peptide may stimulate hair follicles, absorb enough oxygen and nutrients, and produce new hair.

2. Keep your hair color

Copper is one of the microelements needed to produce melanin. This is a compound responsible for hair color and eye and skin color.

3. Other possible benefits

If you encounter hair loss problems, it may mean that the growth cycle of hair is shortened. This may be caused by hair follicles, hormones, etc. The elderly said that copper peptide may be a good place to learn from reliable sources in 2007, and its function in vitro is the ability to extend the growth cycle, which means more time is needed before hair loss.

In addition to promoting new hair growth, copper peptides may thicken existing chains. I think it's possible to have this effect with larger follicles. However, more human studies are needed to determine whether copper peptides can really provide such benefits.

The benefits of copper peptide in skin care

The benefits of copper peptides in skin care have been confirmed. Copper peptide has the ability to play a role in the epidermis or under the outer layer of skin. That's why peptides help collagen deep in skin tissue produce elastin.

In general, reliable sources of copper have been studied. This is the most promising benefit of copper peptide in skin care.

1. Reduce the appearance of wrinkles

Copper peptide research shows that by increasing collagen, it helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The 2015 study reviews reliable sources. Over time, collagen may help to plump the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

2. Tighten skin

According to relevant sources, in addition to increasing the production of collagen, copper peptide also helps to strengthen elastin. The 2015 study reviews reliable sources. This helps to create a tighter, smoother skin.

3. Even skin color

Compared with other types of peptides, copper peptide has the potential to repair skin and skin color. It is thought that copper peptides may remove damaged connective tissue from the skin and add new connective tissue. This may reduce the following

1. Sunspots (also known as age spots)

2. Acne scars

3. Other reasons for uneven skin color

4. Antioxidation

Copper peptide may also have antioxidant effect on skin, reduce inflammation and prevent further injury. It has been reported that GHK Cu can reduce the risk of infection.
