Bis Tripeptide-1 Copper Acetate, also known as GHK2-Cu1, is a naturally occurring copper complex that has been studied for its potential topical benefits in skin care:
- Wound healing and tissue repair:
- A study by Pickart et al. (2012) found that Bis Tripeptide-1 Copper Acetate could promote wound healing and tissue repair by increasing collagen production, angiogenesis, and attracting immune cells (Pickart et al., 2012, Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 25(5), 271-280).
- Another study by Arul et al. (2005) demonstrated that GHK-Cu could enhance wound healing in rats by stimulating collagen synthesis and antioxidant defense mechanisms (Arul et al., 2005, Journal of Peptide Research, 66(2), 87-92).
- Anti-aging and skin rejuvenation:
- A review by Pickart et al. (2015) suggested that Bis Tripeptide-1 Copper Acetate could have anti-aging effects by increasing collagen and elastin production, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and improving skin firmness and elasticity (Pickart et al., 2015, Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 28(5), 227-238).
- A study by Firer et al. (2017) reported that a topical formulation containing GHK-Cu improved skin roughness, firmness, and elasticity in participants with photoaged skin (Firer et al., 2017, Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 16(3), 348-357).
- Antioxidant and photoprotective effects:
- A study by Kang et al. (2003) found that Bis Tripeptide-1 Copper Acetate exhibited antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, suggesting its potential use as a photoprotective agent (Kang et al., 2003, Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 305(3), 610-613).
- Hair growth:
- A study by Murase et al. (2008) demonstrated that GHK-Cu could stimulate hair growth in mice by promoting the anagen phase of the hair growth cycle and increasing the proliferation of dermal papilla cells (Murase et al., 2008, Peptides, 29(10), 1907-1915).
Usage: Can be used in all types of Anti-Aging products, such as in the form of gels, serums, lotions, or creams.
Mixing method: Mix in the final step. The temperature of the cosmetics must be lower than 40 °C. Please carefully study the contraindications in the warning above before using. The formula must have a pH in the range of 4.5-7.4. If higher, or lower than this will cause the stability of Copper Peptide to be lower.
